I have a Beastie Boys rant.
Are you mad at Mike D.? Or will your rant rhyme?
Like any of that's enough to fight the Dark Master. Bator.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Are you people sure that trepanation is a bad plan?
I was just listening to the This American Life archives and came across a story about a man who did research into just how many actually useful, symbiotic parasites our cleanly modern life may have eliminated, and remains convinced that he successfully cured himself of lifelong debilitating allergies by infecting himself with hookworms . He then went on to a brisk internet business selling them to other allergy sufferers, but the FDA shut him down and he and his family have left the country.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I've read about him, JZ. I gotta say, he fills me with a mix of "go you!" and curiosity as to how bad one's allergies would have to be to make hookworms sound like a reasonable trade off.

Seriously, Burrell. My sinusitis is annoying, but with that as an alternative, I'll stick with my Claritin...

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I read about hookworm guy a while ago. It all sounds completely reasonable. Except for the "here, swallow this hookworm" part.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.
I've read about him, JZ. I'll admit, during the bad days, I longingly think that some hookworms, leeches, and laudanum would take care of a lot of the health problems I'm dealing with.

Right? But then again, if it works for other autoimmune disorders? That'd be something.

Mine are pretty damn close. I was listening to the episode and flipping back and forth between "EW. EW. EW." and "I wonder if he can still ship to Canada? I've always wanted to see Victoria Island."
