Ugh

[GSLeloo]

So I was studying with my mom and we end up turning on Animal Planets Most Extreme Animals.... and they talked about these little worms. They show this picture of all these long worms in our stomach and I say to my mom "If I had those I'd tell the doctors to cut me open right now" and then the TV show goes "1 out of 4 people have them" and I go "Nooooooooooooo".

Then my mom kindly says "There are 4 people in this house, you are the one with it" :( I don't want ugly worms in my stomach.

[Skeeter]

:wtf:

[GSLeloo]

Basically what it comes down to is that I am a germ freak and was all "ha ha I'm safe cause I avoid germs at all cost and don't do nature stuff" and then they're like one out of 4 of you has it... It's like look at how many people post here and know that 25% of us have these worms living within our bodies... and they were pretty damn gross.

[Syberus]

Are we talking everyone in the country or everyone in the world? Where like 900000% of african people have it so it increases the entire percentile?

[GSLeloo]

I dunno they just said 1 of 4!!!!

[Numbers]

What they probably neglected to mention is that the 1 out of 4 are all comprised of people living in third-world countries.

...yet another reason why statistics are misleading, and why the media is an evil force using fear to get our attention in order they can make millions on advertising revenue...

...and yes, dimebag darrell was involved in a plot to throw the election in Bush's favor which is why Kerry Lost..

:weirdthread:

Actually people who fear germs and avoid them at all costs get sick more often because they don't build up any immunities at all. An interesting bit of irony, if I do say so myself.

Worms.. there's also the mold and millions of other things we BREATHE in daily. Bacteria live inside us and on our skin.. you can go on and on.. if it didn't kill you yet, good chance is that it won't. Sometimes ignorance is bliss (and no that wasn't meant as an insult to anyone)

[GSLeloo]

No I'm ok with my natural bacteria.. I know they're all over my skin, orifices, inner parts, etc... giant worms don't belong inside me.

[Snapp]

Nothing like a creepy thread to read before I head to bed. That's just nasty. :weird:

[GSLeloo]

No watch Oprah about the colonies of dust mites living in our beds and pillows and all the dust mite shit we breathe in... and then get images of sleeping on their shit and them crawling in your nose... that will keep you up at night.

[Nakiro]

They're tapeworms. And if you think they're sick, you should learn how they have to remove them.

I heard a story about a girl that had to sit over an open bucket of curdeled milk while the 9 yard one crawled out of her and into it.

Yep, from the butt.

this is sarcasm .........



right?

[Ben]

you should worry less about worms and more about getting stabbed in the neck with a pen by angry hobos

[Jazuela]

Yeah I gotta agree with Ben here. The only way a human being can get a tapeworm is to swallow an infected flea.

Yep, from the butt. The way I heard it, you had to stand with your mouth open over a pile of rancid meat.

However, I'm pretty sure that modern medicine has figured out a non-old wives' method of getting them out. Pretty sure.

Finally, Leloo's mom cracks me up.

[HarmNone]

Heh. Graphic visuals not withstanding, tapeworm infestation is now treated with oral medication. :D

Things like that will keep YOU up all night. People like me just sleep on our dust mite colonies and dream of our heads reigning terror apon thier little cities crushing all that they have built and made. *evil cackle*

In high school I did the best experiment ever. We swiped our fingers and put them in petri dishes and watched all the bacteria and shit that grew on it. Even to this day when I catch my hands around my mouth or on my face I start to feel sick...... enjoy!

Why? Do a swab of your mouth next time and compare that to what's on your hands.

There isn't a comparison. Your mouth is filthy compared to the pristine clean of your hands.

God gave me an immune system for a reason.

[Jahira]

Still some disgusting stuff. Also if you are in college and have live in the dorms. Do some fun stuff. Use a petri dish and swipe the doorhandle to the bathroom, the handle on the tiolet, the floor in the bathroom, the drinking found handle. All a bunch of really gross stuff. Doesn't stop me from using them though. For some reason the hand thing still bothers me.

[Sean]

Man do we have different ideas of what is fun to do in college.....

[Jahira]

That is what you do when you go to pharmacy school with a bunch of nerds who have nothing better to do with their time. This is of course only done when we are sober.

LMAO! I saw that last night and my 2 best-friends was in the room with me. We just looked at each other trying to figure out who would most likely have it...then we realized we needed one more person in the room. Then the heart worms popped up on the screen. Nasty.

Reminds me of a story I read some time back.

A man rushed himself to the ER with what he thought was his large intestine in a bag ... with the rest trailing from his ass.

It was a tape worm, 30+ ft worth if I remember right.

And that reminds me of cats and Christmas tree tinsel.

Wow...that's mental. Reminds me of a story when some chick told me she was taking a shit one day and had a tape worm hanging out of her ass. She was screaming and running around with it hanging out of her ass. I laughed...then I found the story horribly disgusting, but was still laughing at the fact that she was running around with a tape worm hanging out of her asshole. My story is better than yours!
