In fairness, a few specific makes of vaccine do contain some questionable additives, but yeah, it's a pretty damn stupid idea.
Which ones? After anti-vaxxers raised a fuss that could half-sorta-maybe-but-probably-not be valid, the scary-sounding additives were, to my knowledge, pulled.

You know, I would be fine with the idiots DRINKING FUCKING BLEACH if only they didn't subject their children to that, too...

Specifically, there was one, I think for the flu, that supposedly contained mercury for some reason. I'm not actually sure where I got that information, or if it's reliable, but hey.

The bleach-drinking, however. If I wanted to commit suicide, I'd do it with something that doesn't take s'damn long.

There was a preservative in the vaccines called thimerosal, part of the chemical structure includes mercury. That was the reference earlier, about sodium and chlorine, same idea.

Plus I'm pretty sure thimerisol hasn't been in common use for over a decade.

And the symptoms of mercury poisoning are nothing like autism anyway except in the extremely generic sense of being neurological.

Never thought I'd see the day when Polandball would manage to be creepy, but this one managed it:

So I'm doing research for a presentation about skin diseases caused by cytoskeletal disorders and I open a Wikipedia page for Harlequin-type ichtyosis.

Spoiler: NOPE. NOPENOPENOPE. (click to show/hide)

That was the first mistake.

The second mistake was GISing it since the Wikipedia pic is an 1886 illustration.

Probably just anxiety or your body deciding to screw with you. I wouldn't worry too much unless it recurs. Probably. If something else suggests that your heart is giving in, then of course...

Also, obligator xkcd ass-palpitation.

And now because of google suggestions, I'm seeing fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva, or, in other words, muscle to bone replacement disease.
Chalk this shit up as to why I don't want to have children along with every other reason.

It's also because Yoink is obligated to hate anything popular because it makes him seem cooler :P
Hey, I like plenty of popular things. Just... popular things that are actually popular for good reason.
I like South Park despite loathing Family Guy, for example.


Anyway, my current terror: about to go to sleep, opened a video to watch later, then realised my volume is at maximum because I'm using my laptop as an alarm clock. Cue me frantically scrabbling to pause the video before it can blast super loud in the middle of the night.
Fortunately, the song in question didn't have an overly loud intro. Still, scary.

OK, I'm flipping the table (err, laptop?) on this bullshit presentation. First it was lovechildren of Beksinski and Clive Barker, now it's a dude that literally looks like he was bitten by a vampire elephant.


E: Fucking hell, this dude even has talons.

There's also the skin bark one, that's pretty disturbing.
Oh, and the massive legs disease.
