To think that Hex Bugs are Sex Bugs?!?

DS bought a Hex Bug the other day (actually a cheapie one from the pound shop). This appears to be the most pointless toy in the history of toys.

I can't figure out what it's for, unless it's really made as a secret way for teens to buy a vibrator?!? Like those vibrators for the prudish hand held electric massage devices they sell in Boots, but for a younger age group?

Was just thinking the same thing myself.

Would it be terribly bad of me to try it later?

Wot, like ants in your pants? Grin

Probably not as painful I'm guessing Grin

It was actually my DH who pointed out the possibilities, I just wanted to check on here that it's not just us that are thinking it! So glad we're not Grin

Do you have a link?

DS got one of this for Christmas - we were messing around and I shoved it down DH's pants as a joke.

So no it's not just you!
