My one such manuscript for next month&#8217;s issue was rejected. Apparently, the subject matter wasn&#8217;t family-friendly enough. What a shame. Since it&#8217;d be a waste to just scrap it as I did go through the trouble of writing it, I&#8217;ll just publish it here.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This time, I ask those who are turned off by gross stuff to please refrain from reading. Just to give you an early heads-up. Those of you who are able to stare at an open large intestine surgery while stuffing your face with food, this is for you.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The topic this time around are the loved-by-all &#8220;torture &amp; execution devices.&#8221; Things like these as well as photographs of dead bodies&#8230; I feel ashamed for having an interest in them. To me it&#8217;s something we the modern people don&#8217;t have in this age anymore: an important tool to help us reaffirm the joy and meaning in our lives. It&#8217;s a way to study humanity through the dark history of convicts.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Although we did have some in our own country as well, the variety of these gadgets was very rich in medieval Europe. &#8220;<em>Iron Maiden<\/em>&#8221; is one of the more famous ones. &#8220;<em>A thorny casket imitating a woman&#8217;s body. A person is put in and skewered by spikes, missing the vital organs.<\/em>&#8221; &#8220;<em>The outer walls of the pitfall trap are covered with knives. Once reaching the bottom, all that remains are small lumps of human meat.<\/em>&#8221; What calculating execution apparatuses. The human intellect sure is wonderful.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">But there&#8217;s also many that aren&#8217;t as gross. The painless guillotine is one cute example. &#8220;<em>Placing scorching hot pots etc. on one&#8217;s head\/burning<\/em>&#8221; &#8220;<em>Forcibly plucking off women&#8217;s nipples\/nipple removal device<\/em>&#8221; &#8220;<em>Letting rats or countless of ants eat the body or genital area\/animal punishment<\/em>&#8220;&#8230; etc. But, after all, if there&#8217;s one that&#8217;s not exceedingly brutal or gross but <em>is<\/em> very painful, it&#8217;s the &#8220;<em>Pear of Anguish<\/em>&#8220;. It&#8217;s quite popular. &#8220;<em>Forcibly inserted into either the vagina, anus or mouth, the pear expands with use of the handle, tearing skin and pulverizing bone.<\/em>&#8221; Hee, isn&#8217;t that just lovely. I think this guy gets the no. 1 this time.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">See, one who knows pain also knows how to be kind to others. Not only physically, but emotionally as well. Alright, I was able to wrap this up nicely. See ya.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/kumomi.org\/9mm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/20080425_478459.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-3890\" title=\"20080425_478459\" src=\"http:\/\/kumomi.org\/9mm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/20080425_478459-300x206.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"206\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u300eDon&#8217;t become close with gross guys.\u300f Yes yes. &#8216;Tis Chihiro.
