Zinc nonperception syndrome
Zinc nonperception syndrome (commonly known as transparent zinc disease) is a quantum psychoperceptual condition during which a sentient organic intelligence perceives zinc as transparent.
People with ZNS don't hear zinc bells, nor do they feel pain when stabbed with zinc knives.
History
The syndrome was first reported on October 7, 2020, when software developer and known fabulist Karl Jones stated in a Facebook comment:
I can see through zinc.
Never comes in handy. Not once.
