Are you sick and tired of not having a disaster to be afraid of? Don't worry, the Swine Flu has you covered.
Why is it even called Swine Flu? That name is completely stupid. It doesn't make any sense. When does anyone ever use the word swine? The animal is either a pig or a hog, no one calls it a swine. I don't understand why they would name the flu after the one word for pigs that no one uses. They don't call shoe laces sneaker laces. It's not like Pig Flu or Hog Flu were already taken. I shouldn't have to get out my Thesaurus to decode their stupid disease names. If they want to use ridiculous words that no one would ever use otherwise, they might as well call it the Swine influenza.
Anyway, apparently the Swine influenza is the new crisis that everyone should be terrified about. As a matter of fact, if you're reading this chances are you've already been killed by the Swine influenza.
If you're not sure if you have the Swine influenza, there are some clear signs you can look for. If you've recently touched, hugged, kissed, held hands, or shared a drink with a pig, it's important that you see your doctor immediately.
As long as we each do our part to make the Swine influenza into a bigger deal than it actually needs to be, we'll make it through this terrible crises. Speaking of terrible criseses, remember when we all died from the Bird Flu? Neither do I.

We'll see how real it gets. Also, I assume it was called the swine flu to infer a less than favorable condition. Not a huge mystery here.
This is serious business. DON'T JOKE AROUND, 'CAUSE YOU'LL BE NEXT, ASSHOLE!
Umbrella really could learn a thing or two from the US Government...
People are freaking out because A) it's a disease and B) people have (reportedly) died from it. What sets it apart from your standard flu I can't say, but it has tons of people wearing masks now.
Indiana had its first confirmed case recently, and apparently it's where several of my friends are, so I'm a little worried. Little, as I don't think it's anything more than the media scaring the shit out of us again, but come on, every couple of months there's something else that has salmonella or whatever here. We're going to be so scared that they'll stuff us inside little bubbles so we can finally be free.

Well played, GoS-CPT-Stewart. Well played.
all i know is that i can simply hibernate and hit the internet and revision for exams if it really does kick off bigtime. the WHO said the uk was one of the most prepared, which makes me feel better ^^
