Just another thing to blame Mexico for. Any reports of it near you guys?

Yes, there have been reports in my state, but I'm so sick and tired of hearing about it already.
It's not going to kill tens of millions of people...this is not the bubonic plague...this is just a slightly modified form of the regular flu. Sure, people die from the flu all the time (generally because they live in a country that has poor health services), but the 'swine flu' is some bullshit fear tactic contrived by the media to scare people.
I know I sound absolutely nuts right now, but it's all bullshit. If you do happen to get the swine flu, you're gonna fucking survive, guarantee. Just drink water to keep yourself hydrated (like you would if you had the regular flu), and don't go walking around getting other people sick. Simple.
Also, swine flu is a misnomer. This is a human-to-human transmission. Pigs aren't affected by it as far as I know.

I miss the days when you could go and say "Yeah, so and so has the flu" without someone freaking out and acting like that person is going to die. Ps. Foil's gonna die. He has the flue.

Yeah, foil has the flu.
HOLY SHIT HE'S GOING TO DIE.
Kidding.
But yeah, I pretty much agree with what he said. I forget where, but I heard that good health care is scarce in Mexico, hence all the recent deaths.
