This Week in ‘What the Fuck?’: Bugs That Shit Fuel

I know what you might be thinking: “Shut up.” Ok, that’s fine. But check this out: Article about bugs that shit fuel. Evidently, some bugs have been genetically altered to eat what’s essentially garbage (excess wheats, wood, etc.) and excrete crude oil. I’m not sure how to feel about this. From an idealistic perspective, one in which science doesn’t need to be used in such capacities, I think this is terrifying. Practically, I don’t know, but being home for a month and having to spend an exorbitant amount of money on gas gives me plenty of reason to be interested. Either way, it sounds like it could be the makings of an awesome video game that will eventually be a disappointing novelty film.

The only thing better than this would be if they could also make cars that shit bugs.
