The game commonly known as iTunes App Store admissions has just gotten richer by two funny facets – here’s the full scoop:

No boobs for iPhone
A completely useless and pointless application simulating the movement of female cleavage via the motion sensor was banned by Apple on the grounds of the terms of submission:

“Applications must not contain any obscene, pornographic, offensive or defamatory content or materials of any kind (text, graphics, images, photographs, etc.), or other content or materials that in Apple’s reasonable judgement may be found objectionable by iPhone or iPod touch users.”

iPhones can fart
People loving bodily odors can now choose from about 20 fart applications – VentureBeat reported that the number of these (similarly pointless) programs is currently exploding.

Our resident ad master Dr. Doris Maria Kohrs had had the following to say on the topic:

A game simulating breasts can be considered as sexist by a variety of individuals. Farting, on the other hand, is annoying, but can not be considered politically incorrect or sexist. The risk of annoying anyone is significantly lower here…

Says all, doesn’t it :-) .
