Swine Flu Paranoia

[HMF]

I am not sure about WDW but at Disneyland the walk around Piglet character is not allowed in the park anymore because of the Swine-flu scare.

Wait...are you being serious!?

I think my brain may have just exploded inside my head. This is getting ridiculous. I hate the media. Seriously. And I hate how dumb people can be sometimes.

I'm not sure this story isn't just satire, ala The Onion.

Later in the story it discusses the use of contraceptives and Kanga.

Are you kidding?


There are pigs in POTC.

People are scared of Mice.

Donald does not wear pants.

Yea...I'm pretty sure that's a joke.

It sure convinced me. If it's a joke it's really sad how paranoid a society we have become that I could actually belive it.

In honor of the dreaded "swine flu" I am going to wear my aluminum foil hat and dust mask all day tomorrow whilst eating nothing but sausage, ribs, bacon, and pork chops.

There is a remote possibility, but given the other stories that are referenced in the article and the fact that this is not showing up on any other news site (so far) doesn't really lend credibility.

I think that we would have heard of two cast members taking over PotC and another cast member chaining themselves to the Swiss Family Treehouse (which, isn't that now Tarzan's in DL?). Again, I'll reference the Kanga being used by Barr Pharmacueticals.

 

[HMF]

Someone just confirmed for me this is indeed a joke and it was so belivable I fell for it. Yes the DL version is indeed Tarzans Treehouse now.

Yep, maybe. I hate fear mongering more than anybody but I don't think we are totally out of the woods on this one.

Has it been proven that the swine flu or whatever the overly PC government is calling it now originated from the pig farm and not just a dirty village where people get diareah just from drinking the water?

I'm surprised the blame hasn't been put on terrorists yet.
