Swine Flu Paranoia

A place to be entertained. Videos, jokes, games, and more.
Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.

Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

Swine Flu Paranoia

Post by Lasolimu » Wed Sep 30, 2009 6:06 pm

Someone was passing this image around the office today and I found it quite entertaining.

I almost feel sorry for Piglet, but he shouldn't have been passing around that swine flu.

In all seriousness though, I hope you guys avoid getting sick, it would suck for anything to happen to you.

P.S. To anyone who would ruin the fun of this picture by saying it isn't swine flu or doesn't come from pigs, I don't care, they initially called it swine flu and now there is no getting away from it.

It's not swine flu, it's Hamthrax...

OMG I needed that laugh LOL

Only Eeyore will be the first to get it as his mask is not completely covering his nostrils! Of course he'll blame it on the weather or something else because you know, nothing is ever Eeyore's fault...he gave Piglet's house to Owl and nobody said a damn thing. How does that work?

Though being it's actually a combo of Avian and Swine though shouldn't Owl be tied up too??? (okay, sorry Lasolimu- my bad, I was so busy looking at the picture I missed your 'fun ruiners' comment- sorry for being one *LOL* it's definitely still swine flu...)

This was a lot funnier than i expected it to be. Something about stuffed animals and sock puppets. They can be endlessly amusing if properly employed for comedic value.

I have seen tour groups walking around DL with masks covering their faces.

Poor Piglet.

I certainly hope that the Hundred Acre Wood gang can get this straightened out before their new theatrical film in 2011!

Pretty funny picture!

And if you need any more evidence that "swine flu" is appropriate, you need only look to its latest victim: :kermit:
