Question of the day.

   If you named a disease, what would it be? 

   My answer: 

   Why not nitch? As I wrote in that post, it really sounds like some gross, highly contagious, medieval plague that affects your skin first. It is spread by annoying insects which are a lot like mosquitoes except smaller, make more annoying sounds, fly faster and are more dangerous. They should probably be called nitches like the condition. They pop up when it’s really hot and humid for long periods in places where it is not normally hot and humid, and when they bite people, they then go deep inside their skin and live there happily with their babies, and meanwhile the poor peep gets the nitch condition which had been transferred to them via the bite, and they get extremely itchy skin that you just can’t live with normally and you keep scratching and scratching all over, can’t sleep, can’t work, can’t focus on anything ‘cause it itches so much, and that is further worsened because of the baby nitches crawling under your skin. Eventually you either end up scratching your skin so much that it’s one huge bleeding, infected, gory mess so you basically lose a lot of blood and have a very serious infection that would probably be fatal, or you die from lack of sleep caused by constant itching, or the nitches do some damage to your insides and/or rob you of all the nutrients that you might have been able to take in with food in between scratching sessions, or you go crazy from it and dead yourself, it just depends what happens first for whom. Gosh, this is actually creepier than originally intended! 😀 I wonder what the treatment would be for such a niche condition. 

   What’s your creation? 🙂
