gripes

Wednesday's House had Foreman come down with "primary amoebic meningo-encephalitis" (inflammation of brain tissue and brain covering caused by a parasite), and all was saved when he was treated with anti-parasitics.

I'll need to confirm this because I'm having trouble accessing PubMed and the uni website...but the survival rate of this particular disease, even with diagnosis, falls short of 5%, and of those who survive (which number about 6 cases worldwide) almost all of them are chronically debilitated.

Good work checking your references, producers ==;



Also have a gripe with Chinese newspapers putting adult material right next to the children's section. Case in point: Sudoku next to an article about "heightening your sexual activity by decorating your bedroom with plants!"

=___=

It comes from a general gripe that Chinese newspapers would have so much sex-related content. I don't understand why they feel obliged to plaster all their weekly magazines with pictures of "stars in bikinis too big for them so that you can see their tits!" and "OMG Armani is such a perverted old man: a collection of his groping snapshots!"

We need a Chinese version of What the goss mags say. Or something equally caustic.



Slept 12 hours today and overcompensated. Got up feeling so dizzy I couldn't walk straight =0=;;; No more caffeine for me.

nyaa~~~

I have decided to amend my acetic outlook on life by changing my icon to an irresistibly blissful cat. (Those of you who've read Black Cat might recognise this "cameo cat" =P)

...That's all for this pointless post.

And yours sincerely I end...nyaa~~~
