Your FB has a lot of stupid. I love giant microbes. I have a few and I'm planning to buy a few more for the baby

[datass]

Holy shit these plushies are awesome.

[sequins]

Look at this super cool embryo plush!!

[bania]

Those are cute! I want them!

[keyslover]

They have been making those for years.

We have the Lyme ones.  I sort of want to burn them or do voodoo on them though. . .

[sergey]

Well we're coming up on cold and flu season so I'll be planning my boycott for this spring.

I have the egg and sperm and I put them together in a box all through the IVF, lol. Magicking my baby into existence.

is it just me, or is herpes the most cheerful fucking thing EVER

[cuddlyevil]

My sister is a librarian and has the bookworm one.

They sell them in our bookstore here, the Christmas gift sets are awesome (they put santa hats on them).

But, I am all kinds of LOL at people on my FB freaking out about the company that makes plush toys of microbes having an Ebola one. 

The most amusing part to me is that they have TONS of them, and have been making them for years, but people are all OMG HOW SICK at the Ebola on specifically because it's 'too current'.

Also, I am *thisclose* to ordering one, partly for the giggle-factor and also because they donate to Ebola related organizations etc.

www.giantmicrobes.com/us/products/ebola.html

These have been around for 10+ years.  I do already have Ebola, sleeping sickness, chicken pox, flesh eating bacteria, black death, mono, the common cold and a few others that I don't remember off the top of my head.  FWIW, I'm a microbiologist.

I used to order from a biological supply company that would throw one of these into the box with each order as a freebie.

They're adorable!

WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE BACTERIA

no one ever answers me when I ask this question

[sharknado]

I have HIV

[lilafowler]

My friend found out about these years ago during a March of Dimes walk where they were giving out mini-Pertussis' as part of a campaign to increase vaccination awareness.

[agnes]

I think I'm going to give the Amoeba and Paramecium as Xmas gifts. lol

[mich1]

I have 2 from this collection, flesh eating bacteria (which has a knife and fork on the bacteria), or sleeping sickness, where the microbe is sleeping.

In real life, probably Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans......because I have worked so much with it!

[Norticprincess]

I have red blood cells, platelets, white blood cell, and stem cells. A friend sent me several when I first got sick. (DH filled out the collection) They were a major hit with my doctors. My onco/hematologist fell in love with the red cells so I gave her one.

I aways thought the Ebola one looked like ET.

DH has the TB one.

[liverandonions]

Wrong Hep, but maybe I should order this to go with my crocheted liver.
