HubCap: My heavens, that's disgusting
Contributed by: Brendan Leonard/YourHub.com   on 7/12/2006

Oh my.

I had no idea what pinworms were until I read Stephanie Blake's blog about them the other day. The last time I heard a story like that, it was about a guy I went to high school with, and he drank something for a bet of $47. I felt I should have been paid $47 just to listen to the story.

Some people are drawn to stories like that the way we're drawn to a horrific car accident when we drive by. Here's what it sounded like in the office:

"This story is talking about pinworms ... OH MY GOD."

YourHub.com employee keeps reading.

"OH MY GOD."

Mouth drops open; they finish the story.

"You have got to read this."

"You have got to read this," is, by the way, along the lines of such sage advice like "This tastes terrible -- do you want to try it?" and "Smell my finger."

That said, you've had fair warning. If you'd like to read it, click here. Keep a bucket handy.
