GATHER THE HOARD!
This Sunday,
zamiel,
cursedcrossbow,
stellabambino,
decadent_east, and a few others are heading down to the Renaissance Festival for a day of chaos, mayhem, and a general good time for all involved. What makes me especially happy is that I just found out one of my new friends from Momo-Con is the man who runs The Black Mages's Website! GEEKGASM! Might be getting a carpool together with him for MetroCon.
Yes, I am going to try and go to MetroCon. Because The Oni needs a fucking vacation, dammit, that's why! You got a problem with that, to quote my hero Bender, "YOU CAN KISS MY SHINY METAL ASS!"
(No, The Oni's ass is not made of metal, the line just sounds good!)
Now then...The Oni poses a question to you:
Say someone has claimed to suffer illnesses X and Y, and has suddenly popped up with Condition Z...which does not fit X and Y: They either have X and Y, or Z.
Because having X, Y, and Z would mean they were a medical oddity.
Please note I am not naming names here, and this is completely and totally anonymous in aspect.
This could be anybody, anyone, anywhere. I state again, I AM NOT REFERRING TO ANYONE IN PARTICULAR.
Would this not sound just a little fishy to you after careful consideration?
I asked a friend of my family who is in the medical field (helps to have Northeast Georgia Medical Center practically right down the road from your house) about this, and he said the most likely option was Munchausen's Syndrome.
For those of you who might be interested in learning more about this fascinating thing, I provide the following link:
http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/Marc_Feldman_2/You should get any questions you have about this answered there.
So then. As a concerned individual who cares about this person, I'm asking for your opinions on this matter. Opinions? I'm at a total loss so I'm turning to you people.
