Somewhere in this great nation is a top-secret government agency in charge of providing aid to America's nonhuman citizenry. Perpetually overworked and underpaid, these dedicated civil servants soldier on with a dedication exceeded only by their respective passions for heavy rifles, stylish footwear, and good sturdy squeaky toys. They're not our country's best nor our country's brightest, but to all the lost and lonely creations of misguided science wandering the wild places of this country, they are a beacon of minimum-wage hope. This is their story.

Um what’s this Petey Syndrome?

Self mastication. In the past it was thought that the restless dead would eat their sere or funeral shroud then start on their bodies.

Petey is one of the two main characters in the great strip “Cul de Sac” – When stressed, he chews on his own arm, but has never done so too painfully and has not taken a bite out of himself. Cul de Sac is in GoComics.

As Chikuku said. It’s usually used as a coping strategy when someone (usually Petey) gets stuck in a high-stress situation and then tries to gnaw their own arm off.

It is very hard to take a bite out of a human arm. The skin is tougher than shown in the movies.
