Musings on the Most Ridiculous Band I Can't Stop Listening To

Be On The Lookout For These Symptoms Of The Coronavirus

  • Rough cough.
  • Sandwichification of the fingers.
  • Dyspeptic sanguinity.
  • A very specific and rare type of aphasia in which the only sentence you can say is “Forget it, Jake: it’s Funkytown.”
  • Yo-yo balls.
  • Hydrophobia. (But not to the point of rabies. Just mildly startled by water. Like, you’d walk by a lake and go Ah! Shit! but you wouldn’t sprint in the other direction.)
  • Box-backed nitties.
  • Great big ennobled thighs.
  • Boar’s-hog eye.
  • Tennis elbow.
  • Pickleball hip.
  • Jai-alai shoulder.
  • Heebies, but not jeebies. (The presence of jeebies is a complete counterindicator for coronavirus.)
  • Rhinophyma.
  • Hypertrichosis.
  • Po-faced skepticism.
  • Scrofulatic estrangement (spleen).
  • Amnesia, but only about the Wu-Tang Clan. (And if someone reminds you about them, you’d be all Oh, yeah, the Wu-Tang Clan and then immediately forget about them again.)
  • A weird kind of pica where you’re compelled to condition before you shampoo.
  • Deep sloppy tongue.
  • Haunch bloatation.
  • Fire in the nethers.
  • The irresistible urge to find a bell tower and wait for a sunny day.
  • Increased gumminess.

    Damn. Was hoping my jai-alai shoulder and haunch blotation were not a sign. The scrofulatic estrangement pretty much nails it. I’ll have to get over my po-faced skepticism and get tested.
