The Ironical Flea's Legs

back- scratcher
 
(+1, -1)
  [vote for,
against]

The Ironical Flea's Legs is the best back-scratcher you will ever use.

This is because at the end of its telescopic stalk there is a scaled up set of mechanically powered flea's legs, that once set in motion can satisfy even the most maddening of itches. The mechanical legs perfectly imitate the action of those of a real flea, as it performs a single leap forward, only these legs are capable of continuous, repetitive motion.

So that's what it's called. I can do the arms part but I don't know about the sitting... [normzone, Aug 09 2012]

       Ah but ironical sounds so much better. An itch you can never scratch then! Sorry about that :-)

       Burgle is far too silly a word to properly describe its activity.

       Ironic, yet mechanical.

       I was to ironically give you a fleas leg when the votes were at zero.

I think you mean seethize.

       I would just glue lots of real fleas to a back-scratcher and have their futile attempts to escape relieve the itching, if i couldn't do gomukhasana.

       I think if you tried to scratch your back with scaled- up metal flea legs, you'd flay yourself. They're pretty vicious.

       Yes, it helps with that too.
