TALL TALES The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence? Latest news from the Center for Disease Control: Bob
Geldof and Bono got it...... The
Center for Disease Control has issued a warning about a
new virulent strain of sexually transmitted disease. This
disease is contracted through dangerous and high risk
behaviour. The
disease is called Gonorrhoea Lectim . Many
victims have contracted it after having been screwed for
the past 4 years, in spite of having taken measures to
protect themselves from this especially troublesome
disease. Cognitive
sequellae of individuals infected with Gonorrhoea Lectim
include, but are not limited to: Antisocial personality disorder traits; delusions of grandeur with a distinctive messianic flavor; chronic mangling of the English language; extreme cognitive dissonance; inability to incorporate new information; pronounced xenophobia; inability to except responsibility for actions; exceptional cowardice masked by acts of misplaced bravado; uncontrolled facial smirking; ignorance of geography and history; tendencies toward creating evangelical theocracies; and a strong propensity for categorical, all-or nothing behaviour. The
disease is sweeping Washington. Naturalists and
epidemiologists are amazed and baffled that this
malignant disease originated only a few years ago in a
Texas Bush. From: M El-Khairy |
