Worldwide, 100 dead from flu.

What makes it so scary is that it’s Swine Flu.

    WE’RE ALL GOING TO DIE!

    Eventually.

  2. donald says:

    Well, you know, it was like 7 a month ago, so you know…

  3. LTC John says:

    I thought it was ManBirdPig flu?

  4. N. O'Brain says:

    Didn’t they find a cure for this?

    An oinkment or something?

  5. N. O'Brain says:

    And yes that was shamelessly stolen.

  6. Herpes says:

    Sure, the Flu’s got all the headlines now, but I’m still around, waiting….

  7. Bob Reed says:

    Pandemic, Pestilence…Whatev-ah!

    I mean, we have the O!ne right? Who, in his benevolence and goodness will just make it all go away…

    I wonder why these things always have animal names..?

  8. DarthRove says:

    …and this year it’s estimated that 1,000,000 will die from  malaria. But they’re Brown Peopleâ„¢ and not pretty birdies, so the EPA’s ok with it.

  9. Rob Crawford says:

    Anyone know where to find the daily number of deaths from diarrhea? I bet it beats the number from malaria, and yet you never hear the Concerned People nattering about the need for plumbing in the third world.

  10. Carin says:

    Rob, you know EVERY day about 115 people die in car accidents.

    little piggy flu flu I don’t want to see you picking up the field mice I don’t think

    Rob, you know EVERY day about 115 people die in car accidents.

    And strangely enough, every one of them had swine flu at the time of their accidents. Freaky.

  13. JD says:

    We should call it the meyaflu, or sammyflu.

  14. McGehee says:

    It’s obviously time to resurrect the Q word. (ahem)

    QUAGMIRE!!! <bloodcurdling scream>

  15. Frank P says:

    Be careful with that oinkment – I hear it can be deadly, too, if used on the wrong skin pig-mentation.

  16. A hundred? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

  17. Adriane says:

    First they came for the swinefluzombies and I said nothing because I wasn’t a swinefluzombie.

    Then the swinefluzombies came for me, but I haven’t got a brain, so I’m not really too worried.

  18. Mikey NTH says:

    Diagnosis: Swine Flu.
    Symptoms: You eat like a pig.
    Rate of Infection: Darn near everywhere.

  19. Pellegri says:

    The comments here have made my heart smile. Especially Adriane’s.

    And yeah, Third World plumbing would be awesome. Can we create some jobs for adding properly sanitized water-and-sewage treatment to Baja California? Or are the jobs being created by kickback stimulus money supposed to be cleaner than that?

  20. Merovign says:

    When the “news panic” came out, I was the one in the office to point out that something like 36,000 people die of the regular flu every year. I got mostly blank stares.

    Then the news dropped off, and everyone forgot.

    As usual.
