The Art of Uselessness by Sardonicus Tweed
April 28th, 2009 6:48 PMBrick is multi-functional, user-friendly, modular,
and best of all, quite heavy*. One feature of Brick that
users might wish to avoid constant use of, however,
is the macroabrasize callous/corn/skin remover.

Improper handling of Brick and related products has been linked to concussion, loss of consciousness, and in rare cases, death. Consult a doctor to see if Brick is right for you.
