I lit my computer on fire and threw it out the window after watching the story about this on 60 minutes, so no worries.

[Alchemy]

I'm wearing strong pillows tied to my body, an umpire's mask, and I have a staple gun pointed at my screen. I'll kill the son-of-a-bitch.

[marooko]

I'm taking Heartguard. I'm cool.

I'm not clicking that video, but apparently for a tapeworm you are supposed to use a clean razor to cut a small slit in your skin just above where it starts, get ahold of the end of it, and slowly roll it around a pencil so that it comes out in its entirety without splitting off into a separate thing to cause you trouble down the line. Sounds fun, yeah?

[Mr.Nipples]

k, now i just have to get a pencil and a razor up my ass

[higgybaby23]

I hope it's these guys!

You know what would be even more fun? If we both got tapeworms and had a race to see who can take them out the fastest without splitting them in two.

[Hannahrain]

A sick part of me thinks that the feeling of slowly extracting a tapeworm from the front of your shin would feel like scratching an itch you can't normally reach.

I knew a girl that used to swallow noodles/spaghetti only part ways, and then would pull them out of her throat with her hand. I was never able to do it.

[hawkingvsreeve]

Do you have her forwarding address?

[Hannahrain]

I just tried to find that footage on YouTube of the laughing baby with the noodle coming out of his nose and instead watched someone sucking shockingly viscous snot out of a baby with one of those baby-style turkey basters for suctioning babies. I feel so violated.

[Alchemy]

Do you have her forwarding address?

I don't know what her forwarding address is, but here is her calling card:

I had the song in mind while making the thread title.

[Hannahrain]

It's them. The worms are here. They're conspiring against me to make me late for work by making it too cold to get out of bed.

[Alchemy]

I heard that Obama zapped himself into the internet and fought the worms with his bare hands.

[marooko]

I was gonna post an article on that.

[TheWatcher]

Actually, a few days ago it was all over the news that the Conflicker worm was not going to attack anyone on April 1, but it's updating itself, in the way that it contacts servers, etc. It's not clear what purpose it has, but it's making itself stronger.

I am not sure why there are millions of computers infected. If your system is up to date, you have updated AV software, and don't allow autorun, there does not seem to be any problem.

Anyway, it's now detectable over the network, there is a way to check which systems are infected.

Ok, you can get back to talking about tapeworms...

[dorkfish]

You know what "defeats" the worm? Microsoft's update from many months ago.

[bug on your lip]

actually Obama went into the internets and saved all of humanity
