Dear silly people.

It has come to my attention that I could quite possibly have diabetes (I'll know whether I have it or not on monday).
And this got me thinking, naturally I giggled at this dish of own mother nature has presented me with and I decided to take over the roll of "God" and create my own disease (Starcraft related, of course).

SSO
Starcraft Stress Disorder

What is SSO?
SSO is a disease that causes the unfortunate victim to ruin his or her life in order to play and/or follow
Starcraft (Watch and play Koreans).
It keeps people up until early in the morning or even afternoon, thus causing them to miss out on the better
things in life.

What are the symptoms?
Symptoms include, but are not limited to ;
-Insomnia
-Erectile Disfunction (But only when people like Rock are playing)
-Fanboyism
-Spontaneous combustion
-Blindness

Special note ; Be very aware of what race your friend plays, Homocide and Suicide are far more common
among Protoss players

How do I cure it?
Unfortunately there is no cure, one can battle the symptoms but a cure has yet to be created.
The disease transfers sexually, so be sure to practise safe sex.

Dr. Pellucidity


Needless to say I amused myself to no end, and I invite you all to create your own starcraft related disease. It should include a name, an explanation as to what it is, symptoms, and a cure (if any). Have at it, my minions!

P.S. Oh noes I have SSO ;_;

Ahahaha Diabetes LOL. I'll write a guide hahaha.

PS, I told this joke to someone who had been diagnosed with Diabetes for only six months. Afterwards, I've never seen someone look so angry, and since then he's basically stopped talking to me.

Q: What's the cure to Diabetes?
A: Live-abetes!

Type one or type two? My dad has been told he needs to watch his diet and exercise or he'll get type 2 diabetes.

Well someone will have to do this eventually.

Starcraft-Specific Mental Retardation

Symptoms
- Delays in oral language development (and verbal reasoning skills)
- Deficits in memory skills (particularly learning from past mistakes)
- Difficulty learning social rules (cheesing and bad-mouthing)
- Difficulty with problem solving skills (and general understanding of basic concepts)
- Delays in the development of adaptive behaviours such as responding to an opponent's actions


Cure
- Stop playing Protoss
No I'm never serious.

the above post is 100% accurate
SKT_Best: "I actually chose Protoss because it was so hard for me to defeat Protoss as a Terran. When I first started Brood War, my main race was Terran."

How many symptoms do you need in order to be a true protoss player?

Ahh... and most likely even if they say you don't have type 2, they'll tell you to exercise and eat well like they told me dad...

Well, that really means anything. I got diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 19. If you're rather skinny or normal, it's probably type 1.
And I found that Diabetes joke rather funny, can't really imagine why someone would be mad about this :p It's not like Diabetes is that bad.
