I was listening to NPR on my way to work today, the news report
was about a recent Ebola outbreak in DR Congo. The reporter said "some
good news out of the outbreak, a pregnant Ebola patient gave birth. She died
but the baby survived. The infant has Ebola." WTF!! How is that good
news??
Here is how it all went down:
Radio: Some good news out of the outbreak, a pregnant Ebola
patient gave birth
Me: aahhh J
Radio: She died
Me: ohh L
Radio: but the baby survived.
Me: aahhh J
Radio: The infant has Ebola.
Me: WTF??
I felt like I was in that Simpsons scene where Homer buys a
cursed Krusty doll:
An Ebola
patient gave birth today. That’s
good! The woman died. That’s bad.
Her baby survived. That's good!
The baby has Ebola. That's bad. But the Ebola comes with a free
frogurt. That’s good. The frogurt has Ebola. That’s bad.
But you get your choice of topping. That's good. The toppings contain potassium benzoate. 0_o That's bad. …Can I go now?
