Acupuncture
A pseudo medical procedure whereby ill people stab themselves repeatedly with a large number of long thin metal needles, or worse, ay someone else to stab them. Originally a Chinese invention, believe it or not this has spread around the world with incredible popularity. Ill people not only pay money to be tortured in this way, they are quite prepared to make apointments weeks in advance and look forward to the procedure with something approximating eagerness. Adherents of acupuncture can be easily recognised by their startling resemblance to a stainless steel porcupine.(NB it is vitally imortant to remember when greeting patients of acupuncture NOT to grip them in a big friendly hug- for obvious reasons).Conversations
