extra-dimensional taffy puller
Plural: extra-dimensional taffy pullers
I bet you didn't know the multiverse was made of taffy. Well, that's okay, because it isn't. It is, however, made of something very much like taffy, which means you can use this handy little device to fold, spindle, and mutilate reality.
In other words, this weird looking gun-thing will pull your enemies just like you'd pull some fresh, delicious taffy. With or without salt water.
