    Gonorrhea a Superbug!? Wait, What's Gonorrhea Again? And Do We Have It?

    The Centers For Disease Control today warned that gonorrhea is becoming dangerously resistant to Cipro, leaving sufferers with just a single class of injection-only antibiotics capable of curing it.

    It's not the first time the CDC has warned us about gonorrhea's increasing resistance to antibiotics, however. In 2002 and 2004, Hawaiian, Californian and homosexual gonorrhea carriers were informed their strains were probably too strong for even the anthrax-fighting Cipro. And now, says the Wall Street Journal, the disease has spread to the point that the most disease-resistant city in America is Philadelphia. Having had sex not only in Philly but in California and the Hawaiian Tropic Zone (don't ask), we began to worry: Might we have gonorrhea? After the jump, the [Often disgusting! -Ed.] specifics of our consultation with our resident sex expert, Slut Machine.

    Moegetsaround: have you ever had Gonorrhea
    slutmachine: yes
    Moegetsaround: so apparently it's fast becoming resistant to the longtime standard antibiotic
    Moegetsaround: it's joining the list of "superbugs"
    slutmachine: i took 500mg of cipro
    slutmachine: really?
    slutmachine: that's because everyone has it
    Moegetsaround: think i do?
    Moegetsaround: how would I know
    slutmachine: you would know
    Moegetsaround: does it smell?
    Moegetsaround: I feel like I'm always smelling.
    slutmachine: actually, mine morphed from gonorrhea into bacterial vaginosis, so maybe it was resistant to the antibiotics
    slutmachine: it drips
    slutmachine: actually, it plops
    Moegetsaround: Oh, i've totally had bacterial vaginosis
    Moegetsaround: it PLOPS?
    slutmachine: i remember i was squatting over a toilet to pee and all of sudden i heard this bip plop and there was like a dollop of like really really old sour milk on the toilet seat [That was just fucking unnecessary. -Ed]
    Moegetsaround: Wow.
    Moegetsaround: Yum.
    slutmachine: hahaha
    slutmachine: i thought it was a yeast infection, which i've actually never had
    Moegetsaround: you've had a yeast infection
    Moegetsaround: there is just no fucking way
    slutmachine: but then the next morning i got a call from a dude saying he had gonorrhea and he probs gave it to me, which he did
    slutmachine: some girls aren't prone to them
    slutmachine: i constantly get UTIs
    slutmachine: i think that's the trade off
    slutmachine: i have UTIs like every fucking week
    Moegetsaround: I used to have those
    Moegetsaround: I have it all!
    slutmachine: it's better now that i've only been sleeping with one person
    slutmachine: i may not grow babies, but i grow whole civilizations of bacteria in my vagina!
