Take this, literary/intellectual blog streak! Sandviches couldn't take you out, but maybe squirrel pits can! From Science News:
"Self-sniffing as a guide to kinship has earned the nickname “armpit effect.” Biologists have theorized that plenty of animal species rely on their armpits when they do favors for kin or avoid relatives as mates. “There’s tantalizing evidence for the armpit effect in people,” Mateo says, but ruling out other possible explanations has been tricky in any species..."
I feel that any article that begins with "Wake up and smell the armpit" deserves some attention.

you know my desire to write has been suspended! its the picture, the idea, it makes me want to go out and live! haha. youve stumped me for now with your promises of real life beyond a dark bedroom where animals use armpit communication to realize their oneness with each other (or in order to avoid it ewwwww) has caused me to want to venture outward to armpits waiting for me to smell them. or perhaps I should just go buy some apples, Im hungry.
okay... smelling armpits + I'm hungry... eww
Buy apples, not armpits.
apples bought, armpits not smelled, life is good.
