\"\"  Do I know about them, they’re the bane of my very existence! I wish I’d never turned that Cesium Ray on those common dust mites, transforming them into eyelash-chomping carnivores.

And those rats, well you just can’t feed rats Jell-O day after day and not expect some subtle change in their disposition. I found a way to get rid of eyelash mites, but it involves using an ultrasonic toothbrush and laundry bleach. To protect myself from lawsuits, I can’t share those instructions with you over the Internet, but I’d be glad to share them on a personal basis. Let’s talk, shall we? <\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
