"NASA Intern Steals Moon Rocks for Sexy Time"

Alleged thief @CubbyTustard stated, "I dunno. There were the rocks, and my girlfriend was horny. It just seemed like a good idea at the time. Ya know?"

Isn't lunar regolith super sharp and abrasive? Of all the rocks to frolic naked on top of, moon rocks seem like they'd be near the bottom of the list.
