How to Play Devil's Advocate

If someone actually came up with a pill that instantly stopped all itching, they would win a Nobel Prize.

That said, we need itchiness. Itching is an important early warning system for your skin. A fine elementary school educational film could be made about how we all need to itch sometimes. Some poor guy tries to ask a girl out, but keeps scratching his nose, so of course she says, “In your dreams, Itchy.”  In his anger he wishes he would never itch again. At the end of his first itch free day his face is all dry and peeling, his rough wool sweater has rubbed his torso raw, his arms are covered with mosquito bites he failed to notice, and we don’t even want to mention anything going on below his waist.

He’s never going to get a date now! Oh, how he wishes he itched again!
