A tissue vandal is a janitors worst nightmare. Usually anonymous, this person (or sometimes people depending on how bad the situation is) will vandalize school toilets by using wet tissue mainly soaked with water.
There are different types of tissue vandals, the most common being the chuck'n'splat kind. These people will wet tissue and Chuck it with the aim of getting it in a high-up place (the higher, the supposedly the better)
Some tissue vandals are also soapfitti artist as well and take pleasure in smudging mirrors with the bog standard soap from the easily accessible soap dispensers

Get the Tissue Vandals mug.The biomedical discipline of growing functional, three-dimensional human tissues and organs in the lab from a patient's own cells. It's not just repairing the body; it's building spare parts for it from the ground up. Scientists use scaffolds (like biodegradable frameworks), cocktails of growth factors, and bioreactors (simulating bodily conditions) to coax cells into organizing themselves into complex structures like skin, cartilage, or even miniature livers. The goal is to bypass donor shortages and immune rejection, creating personalized biological grafts.
Example: Growing a new bladder for a patient with spinal bifida by seeding their own cells onto a scaffold and implanting it is a real-world success of Tissue Engineering. In the lab, researchers creating "organoids"—tiny, beating heart models or brain bits—to test drugs are using the same principles. It's the ultimate form of bio-fabrication.
