I googled fibromyalgia and this came up – what *is* it?

Along with a few other science flavored pieces (including one from the curator of SCQ’s FILTER), a humourous list I wrote went up today at Yankee Pot Roast:

Rock Band or Human Ailment? (click to read)

It reminded me of some previous musing of mine on scientific humour – is it all pun ridden? Yes, it is.

Anyway, if what I’ve written doesn’t make you laugh, keep it to yourself.

    Congratulations on making me spit out a mouthful of masticated pistachios all over my monitor. But in all seriousness, ailments aren’t funny until they’re made into puns.

    BTW, it probably should have been Talking Headlice and Radioheadache. Oh, well.
