That brainworms name was cocaine I bet.

The doctor believed that the abnormality seen on his scans “was caused by a worm that got into my brain and ate a portion of it and then died,”

CallMeButtLove ,

This is funny and all, but on a serious note... WTF and how can I make sure that doesn't happen to me?

MrPoopbutt ,

Cook your pork to FDA guidelines

Fuck that worm. He could have gotten rid of this pos and all he did was make this dude worse.

Ha even the worm after eating his brain thought, fuck this dude is crazy and gave up.

RFK's brain poisoned the worm.

There are your options, America: two very old white men and an slightly less old white man whose brain was partly eaten by a worm. Of all the hundreds of millions of Americans, these three.

Carnelian ,

Ah so, it is revealed in the article that while he believes his brain was eaten by a worm, he came to that conclusion while mercury-poisoned (unrelated) and it is most likely not accurate. The brain surrounded the worm with tissue to try and isolate it and the result is similar to having a brain tumor (as I read it, sry if summary is somewhat inaccurate)

RaoulDook ,

WTF?? He was mercury poisoned and had a brain worm? Was he doing some kind of 1800s-era science experiments at home?

Carnelian ,

Apparently just eating an enormous amount of tuna + picked up the worm larva from some undercooked pork!

One could even say... too much tuna?

Anticorp ,

How does a worm go from your stomach, into your brain? That doesn't make sense.

TriPolarBearz ,

It's called neurocysticercosis. Here's some info from the CDC.

silence7 OP ,

They bite through the lining of the stomach and circulate with blood looking for tissue to develop inside of. They usually do this in pigs, but it sometimes happens in humans

Anticorp ,

Terrifying! What the fuck, nature?

Anticorp ,

Well yeah, the other hundreds of millions haven't spent a lifetime climbing into bed with the corporations that run the country.

Fapper_McFapper ,

Well, that explains a lot.

Pilgrim ,

A lot of stuff about him suddenly makes much more sense.
