Thread for Things That Made You Frown Today

Psychology. Ruh roh.

Son woke up with a fever of 101.3. Apparently whatever flu strain my sister has given him is not the one we just got over a couple of weeks ago. Hurray. I get to be sick again for like the third or fourth time in two months. All I have to do is wait.

Flu is wicked this year. Somewhere I heard that while making the vaccines they (big pharma) miscalculated on which South American strain was going to make it up to North America so the vaccine that everyone is rushing out to get is described by world health as only "moderately affective" against this years strains. Obviously this only perpetuates the problem but they still want to sell the vaccines and they risk losing money if they don't so they hire doctors to promote the vaccines anyway. Thank you corporate overlords, flu epidemic is just what the doctor ordered (pun totally intended).

And here I was blaming the war on vaccination for destroying herd immunity.

That's right folks, I went to school with both of the starting quarterbacks in this superbowl. Dudes line up on the left for high fives, ladies on the right for make out sessions.

So why is she hanging around a slack-jawed mouth-breather such as yourself? ERROR, ERROR. DOES NOT COMPUTE, DOES NOT COMPUTE.


Hypothesis 1: She is your psychologist, and you should stop cancelling your sessions with her.

Hypothesis 2: She is pretending to be your friend, and you are, unbeknownst to yourself, one of her case studies in an elaborate plan to create a psychological human centipede. Be careful pal!!!!

Hypothesis 3: You saved her from drowning in a kiddy pool when she was hopped up on E during her wild and crazy days as an undergrad at San Luis Obispo.

I am waiting for your response.

Well, I am currently taking a dump in a box and will be mailing it to a certain someone. On an unrelated matter, what's your mailing address?

I'm a remarkably loyal and trustworthy friend, and when she moved from california to chicago I set her up with a new network of friends, helped her find a place, helped her move. Plus I saved her from drowning in a kiddy pool when she was hopped on on E during her wild and crazy party days as an undergrad at san luis obispo. Holy shit, you called it.
