The Glory of the Worms

No, this is not chocolate pudding with topping. This is stool with an Ascaris on top. Ewwwwwww. Shocking statistic: 1/5 of the world's population has this worm living inside their bowels. The worst part is that even with the effective medication, the worm still has to come out!...i.e. you still have to go through the trauma of seeing a long fat worm come out of your body. Personally, I'd probably elect to visit my friendly neighborhood GI and have him/her take it out for me during a colonoscopy. There is just no need to suffer like that with available technology.....
