| Quote: | The discovery of a double-headed sex toy mistaken for a mystical rare fungus brought national notoriety to a Chinese village and TV program this week.
Villagers from Liucunbu, a rural community outside western Chinese city of Xi’an, encountered the sex toy while drilling a new well shaft. Hard-pressed to identify the flexible, fungi-like object, perplexed residents alerted the local news station, which immediately sent reporter Yunfeng Ye to the scene. |

The guy who invented the prank, deserves a Nobel.

That's no +4 Mushroom of Immortality; that's a miniature Pocket Pussy designed for tiny, pinkie-sized Chinese penises!

Presumably it was made of some latex / whatever material, so how could they think that material was a plant.

Because they thought it was a magical plant.
I mean once you open the possibilities to magical plants that grant immortality, what's left to cause you to question it's composition?
