If it increases in pressure every time, I’m now curious how many times you need to close the trunk to cut a finger off

[–] Nepenthe@kbin.social 23 points 6 months ago

That was very nearly my exact same thought. Maybe not for curious children with carrot-sized fingers, but for adults, how convenient! Business competitor's body won't quite fit in your fancy frunk? Just while away on your phone for about 10 minutes, let the cat do its magic, and off go the legs! Travel-sized!

I wonder if you can get the frunk to critical velocity at the touch of a fly by constantly pumping it up like a pump action gun.

Escape velocity? 😉
