Study declares Love a disease

Doctors from the University of Allopath have announced that Love is a disease. It is characterized by abnormal heart rhythms, sweating, impaired brain function, incoherent speech patterns and loss of sleep, among other signs. Thanks to this pioneering work from researchers sponsored by the leading drug firm Pferck, researchers have learned that love is a common biochemical disorder affecting both men and women of all ages.

Fortunately, it is treatable with prescription drugs. A new drug, Miserexa, combines beta blockers and antidepressants to alleviate the symptoms of Love. This drug slows the heart and helps patients feel detached from reality, counteracting the unhealthy neediness of Love.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the new drug this week. In a press conference, chief FDA drug approval scientist Dr. B. Fuddle said, "We are declaring war on Love, and doing everything in our power to eradicate Love from the world."

The market for Miserexa is expected to reach six billion dollars annually. "Love has reached epidemic proportions," explained a public relations representative of Pferk. "If we do not act immediately to thwart the spread of this disease, Love will run rampant, and we will be facing an epidemic of Love in the world."

Health researchers first became aware of the disease after being alerted to symptoms of Love by the psychiatry community, which has been instrumental in the detection and aggressive treatment of this dangerous condition with brain-altering drugs. "We were seeing it in an alarming number of patients," explained one psychiatrist, "and it was causing untold suffering in their lives. Fortunately, the condition can now be chemically corrected."

Further study revealed that Love is highly contagious. It can apparently spread from one person to another, although the mechanism of transmission is currently unknown (scientists suspect it may be spread on toilet seats and doorknobs). Love also spreads easily from mother to child, especially in newborns. Interestingly, Love has no effect on landlords and corporate CEOs, who seem to possess some unknown immunity to the disease.

Given the expanding threat of this disease, doctors stress it is important that all adults get screened for Love as soon as possible. Hospitals and clinics are now setting up Love screening programs in the hopes of catching the disease early and treating it aggressively with targeted pharmaceuticals. "Nearly half the population may now be suffering from Love," said Dr. Fuddle, "and we estimate more than 90% of the carriers are currently going without treatment. It is important that we provide screenings and treatment on a population-wide basis."

If Love is not detected and treated in its early stages, it can advance to the point where the only solution is surgery. In such severe cases of Love, skilled surgeons perform a cardiectomy (a surgical removal of the heart). The procedure is risky, and many patients have died on the operating table, but many more have been successfully saved from the ravages of Love by the skillful blade of a compassionate surgeon.

The American Misery Association (AMA), whose mission is to find the cure for Love, is working hard to help educate the general public to watch for early signs of Love. People are urged to conduct a Love self-examination in the privacy of their own homes, and to watch out for the classic symptoms of Love: racing pulse, sweaty palms, inability to speak in coherent sentences, or confusion around certain attractive individuals. People are also taught how to avoid giving Love to others -- an important step in halting the spread of this disease.

If you suspect that you or someone you tolerate might be suffering from Love, don't wait. Treatment is available. Don't let Loved ones suffer any longer.

This press release is brought to you by Pferck, where today's rip-off drug prices fund tomorrow's profit miracles.
 
Side effects of Miserexia may include: drowsiness, sexual side effects, high blood pressure and sore throat. If you experience severe muscle cramping please let your doctor know as this may be a sign of rare but serious side effects. If you are taking walks, ice cream or alcohol please let your doctor know as your dosage may need to be adjusted.
 
I've had love a few times. I have managed to stay healthy for the last 9 months though. It's good to know there is treatment available if I ever get sick again.
 
Damn it, it isn't a disease it's an addiction! Which, of course, is all the more reason to declare war on it...

Never mind, Cheddar.

This is a brilliant piece of satire. Now that Big Pharma is encouraging every university in the world to name personality traits as "syndromes" so they can more easily sell "cures" for them, it's as if they want to stamp out individuality. Big Pharma can turn you into the perfect Spock automaton too! You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile!

An addiction like say, POLITICS? :p :rolleyes: I support the war on politics. :D
 
Nice Ad

Of course what Ad does Google pick to display at the bottom of this thread? It's natural is seems but still...

Will we condescend to vote for Sally Bell today? I think that would be an effective salvo in your war...
Nope, it just sanctions and further legitimizes a bogus and crappy system.<IMHO> :p

I hope Sally kicks some butts, though. ;)
 
Somebody should write up an article about the forthcoming cure for the disease known as "Politics".

Symtpoms of politics include incoherent speech, wearing of tin foil hats, and irresitible urges to protest and write letters to your representatives in Congress. The cure is a drug called "Complacentex". Its side effects may include obesity, debt accumulation, and complete loss of civil liberties.
 
Well there is Brave New World Material.. Love a disease... It can be treated... any way to limit the human experience artificially.
 
New Sexually Transmitted Disease Warning

Worse than SARS and Bird Flu combined, The Center for Disease Control has issued a warning about a new virulent strain of Sexually Transmitted Disease. The disease is cont racted through dangerous and high-risk behavior. The disease is called Gonorrhea Lectim and pronounced "gonna re-elect him." Many victims contracted it in 2004, after having been screwed for the past four years. Cognitive characteristics of individuals infected include:
*anti-social personality disorders,
*delusions of grandeur with messianic overtones,
*extreme cognitive dissonance,
*inability to incorporate new information,
*pronounced xenophobia and paranoia,
*inability to accept responsibility for own actions,
*cowardice masked by misplaced bravado,
*uncontrolled facial smirking,
*ignorance of geography and history,
*tendencies towards evangelical theocracy,
*categorical all-or-nothing behavior.

Naturalists and epidemiologists are amazed at how this destructive disease originated only a few years ago from a bush found in Texas.
