Dear People Who Do Not Believe In Evolution

Hi, I’m Expo, and I would like to introduce you to MRSA.

MRSA stands for Methicillin-Resistant Staphyloccocus Aureus.  It is what we like to call a “superbug”, because over the past ten or fifteen or twenty years—barely a fucking BLINK in the great scheme of time, you understand—this strain of staph has developed, or should I say, EVOLVED, a resistance to most of the most common antibiotics.

This particular superbug invaded my abdominal cavity when I had surgery to repair an ovarian torsion back at the end of April, and laid me out in the hospital for three weeks.  It could only be killed by nuclear-grade new-class antibiotics, and it could very well have killed me.

I would now like to cordially invite you to SHUT THE FUCK UP.

Sincerely, Expo.
