Sticky Grabber Shotgun Barrel Arm   (+7, -1)  [vote for, against]
Almost better than having a real arm.

A new prosthetic device for the handicapped which looks like a shotgun barrel; when fired a giant gooey sticky green hand attached to a long sticky gooey green string attached to the inside of the barrel is jettisoned out! This gooey sticky green hand sticks hold of any given object, the sticky gooey green string acts as a rubber band sending the hand and its target back to the user. Besides its obvious functionality the device turns the user into a frog-like superman.

//why is this under Health: Sexual Aid?// "arm" might be a euphemism for another vital organ assigned to males only ?

why green? Flesh colored with faux-hair would be way more fetching.

Only downside I can see is the immediate surge in self-amputations when this comes on the market [+]
