" The outbreak of swine flu should be renamed "Mexican" influenza in deference to Muslim and Jewish sensitivities over pork, according to an Israeli health official. Scientists are unsure where the new swine flu virus originally emerged, though it was identified first in the United States. They say there is nothing about the virus that makes it "Mexican"
I wouldn't be offended nor would I care if any Mexican were offended if a name change were made, if it made sense to change it (if the flu originated in Mexico). But being offend by the current name because of religious bullcrap over eating pork....wut?

My favourite thing about swine flu is how most people get better after a few days with no treatment whatsoever.
I was in a maths lecture on Tuesday with about 200 other students when this really annoying mature aged student came in wearing a face mask! A FUCKING MASK!!!! Not a surgical mask, but a lousy builders dust mask..... Maybe this belongs in the kill yourselves thread.
