Chimpanzee Learns to Gargle
Flu season is approaching, and in Japan that means people should start regularly gargling to keep their throats cleansed and free of scary germs and viruses.

I’m sure many of you out there read the first few lines of this post and want to point out that the Japan’s obsession with gargling is really really stupid.

Just follow his example, and stop trying to use rationality and science use to prove stuff, mmkay?
