Sex bomb?

this is a conspiracy if i've ever seen one! :hmm:

There's nothing there :hmm: (edit: link works now, isn't this posted in general discussion as well?)
Suspicious indeed.
Good thread title though.

Hmmmm....I'd like to know how you'd make someone sexually irresistable to another person. Sounds kind of fishy to me. The ideas are definitely creative though, I especially loved the halitosis one :D

If it made them act homosexually towards each other, wouldn't that raise moral? that is, of course, as long as both people involved were affected... or one was taking full advantage of the "Don't ask, Don't tell" policy ;)

lol, they would be shooting everyone, but not with bullets

i dont see anyway that they could make someone sexually irresistable, but who knows what the government has up their sleeves...

:lol: :lol: :lol:

so they wanted to spray them with ectasy? lol

Benji-

GREAT POST!!! Thoroughly enjoyed it!!

Only a bunch of high and mighty military pundits would even think of that stupid idea.

D00d...the military would make MILLIONS if they sold "mini sex bombs" to the public. Yeah, you know like how ninjas have those smoke triangles? We guys could have mini sex nades. That would be awesome!!! Just as long as it's not used around other guys. THAT would be horrifying. Only to be used around girls for me. :lol: :crazy: :D

bahahahaha, thats great

I heard about this on a local radio station about a week ago. I thought it was something they made up, because it was hysterical. I can't believe the military would actually research something like this. :crazy:

This reminds me of the classic Alice (Racoona) Sheldon story "The Screwfly Solution". I even found it online:

Seems to be a good idea :lol:

Wow, that is just way too weird. It's one of the funniest things I've seen for a while though. Sex bombs, what will they come up with next?

Make love not war?

haha, I read this in my local newspaper a couple months ago.
I was just @ a restaurant bar and people were passing it around and laughing @ it.
It reminded me of how it was the CIA who created LSD

The angry rats bit is hiarious! The visual is so Hitchcock/Python.
Man, that cracks me up.

What a great movie that would make...with the rats, hornets, love interests, and poor oral hygene...

Its not possible to have that sort of effect on pheromones, is it? Even if it was, the protests against it would be spectacular.

:lol: Looks like the hippies were right all along! Who knows, maybe the whole sexual revolution was jump started by some test subjects who escaped.

No joke! That would make one of the craziest parties in the world. When will the drug dealers get their hands on this new goldmine?

why can't we be friends? -War

it would be the sixties all over again. hippies roaming the earth...
that's very scary! HIPPIE ALERT!

(jared imagines the amazing population explosion caused by this technology)


(puts more flourine in the water)

that'll keep them under control... MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

You know what I find ironic?

I think, when it was posted in the General section, people complained about how inhumane, sick, and wrong it was. And, they'd prefer people killing eachother instead...

Either that, or somewhere else, hahaha.

that's crazy. subconsciously (or chemically) giving someone gay tendencies can really fuck with their head. we already have our soldiers coming back with fucked up heads but if something like these proposed chemicals became a normal weapon of warfare, who knows what crazy things our enemies would think up next. and once they find out what we were doing? i mean, it's not like foreign countries can't keep up with our news. if we can find it on the web, most likely so can they. crazy.

why does everyone think X is a sex drug?

Only the US military would have enough time on their hands to think up things like that. Neat article, thanks.

Not only would suddenly becoming gay be unnerving and distracting for the average male, just think of what it would do to the conservative Islamic soldiers in Iraq, Afghanistan and others. Their fellow soldiers might try to kill them for sinning against Allah.

Then again, maybe the sex-bomb would simply turn more men into homosexuals and thus liberal politics would spread throughout the world like wildfire.

it should be no surprise that this type of research is being done. as horrific as these "solutions" are, they're damned interesting and, at the very least, contribute knowledge of the human body and mind to the rest of the world (when that knowledge is declassified, of course!)

that's a good idea though. and i think it'd definitely discourage soldiers, especially concidering the ego of people who join the force and thier almost manditory homophobia
