How come the US never gets these kind of epidemics?
We only get mad cow disease and spinach born E. Coli

What the heck...? That...that's just weird. It's almost too hard to believe that such a disease exists. Not, not almost too hard. It IS too hard to believe that such a disease exists.

You all fail at internet. Look up Persistent Sexual Arousal Disease on google.

Wait a second... Oh my god, that syndrome actually exists. I thought that news article was a joke or something, but then I did a Wikipedia search, and there it was! Okay, this is definitely not something to laugh about anymore. That's a horrible disease!

It's a real affliction. There was a documentary about it a while ago. There was an American woman (who's name I don't recall) who was virtualy dibilatated by it. There was very little she could do from begining to end without an episode. Although I had no idea that it affected so many people. It doesen't seem to be connected to sexual situations in anyway it just happens.

It should be noted that Wai Wai (the link from Mainichi News) focuses on articles from Japanese tabloids and in general bizarre stuff. So take the article for a grain of salt.
