It stretches! It bounces! It tears! It also has a mind of its own when put into contact with metallic objects. Sold at Vat19 for $13.50 (currently sold out ), the Magnetic Thinking Putty also comes with a super-strong neodymium iron boron magnet that lets you play with the stuff straight out of the box.

Now, I have one more to add to that list. It's becoming increasingly more difficult to wipe myself after going to the bathroom. Especially after having done a #2. "Do you want me to start wiping for you?" J asked last night with a snicker.
