Magnetism only feels like magic, because we don't have biological sensors for it

Think about it. Isn't light+eyes and ears+sound just the same in terms of their "influence at a distance"? We don't feel that as abnormal or magic - simply because we've sensors for them and are used to it. But physically speaking light and magnetism are based on electromagnetic forces.

It doesn't even have to be a finger. There are so many underused parts of the body

Why do I feel called out by this comment

Any nipple can be a magnetic antenna

I have nipples, Greg. Can you make me a magnetic antenna?

Would be handy for attaching your name badge, or if you need to put those little hard drive screws somewhere so you don't lose them.

Does the space cold

Make your nipples go pointy, Bowie?

Do you use your pointy nipples as telescopic antennae

Finally mens nipples get something to be useful at.

I vote for mens liberation and rights for magnetic nipples!

Probably shouldn't put any at the base of your penis, women with piercings might not enjoy it...
