Yall. Feeling paranoid about ‘germs’ and ‘catching the swine flu.’ I have heard that if I wash my hands once every hour, I won’t get swine flu. It is also essential to have some sort of mask that filters out germs.
Do yall think this mask might work? Do u think the moustache can filter out all of the bad germs?

Or should I actually buy a protective mask from Am Appy? Not sure which colour I want.

Can’t believe Am Appy is actually selling protective gear. Feel like I might actually ’start taking the swine flu’ more seriously.
Just want to protect myself without compromising my fashion sense. Might just buy a ‘pakistani scarf’ to cover my mask.
Does n e 1 have any tips for avoiding swine flu?
Does n e 1 know any other signature Am Appy / Urban Outfitters / H&M styles that might help 2 protect me from catching ‘pig fever’ without ‘looking like a poor mainstreamer?

Just get high. If you’re high, the germmies will get high too, greatly reducing their “give-a-fuck-ability”. Meaning that they won’t do their job. They’ll just sit around laughing and shit with their homies.
fuck a mask.

Carles, that mustache would look sick. But there are no protective masks being sold at Am Appy. So ur a liar.

Think swine flu is the new ‘buzz pandemic.’ Avian flu and SARS are dead just like bloghouse/lectro. AIDS is the Daft Punk of pandemics, every1 kinda ‘lists it as an influence.’

@hey anony anony, also think swine flu is similar 2 ‘Greg and the Girl Talkers.’
Has genetics of bunch of other pandemmys [via avian+swine+human flu], not really ‘original,’ but creates new pandemmy from ones that already exist and combines them into something ‘buzzworthy.’

thanks for letting me know! perhaps you should identify yourself as tugboat 1. The reason I suggest this is that I have thought that sometimes “tugboat” makes good comments and other times they are some of the stupidest shit I have every read. Knowing that there are 2 tugboats explains it. Serioulsy, I thought “this tugboat boat person is schitzo or sumpin..its like there are two of them” Shit…please let us know who you are….

I’m from Mexico city and I use the new swine flu protection mask, you should see how parties go around here, everyone with those Am appys protection msks I’m thinking of forming a Djduo and use those protection masks as our own personal brand as if they were the Jus†ice’s leather jackets or the MSTRKRFT’s jason’s masks, or the Daft Punk’s Robots that would make us unique and we could show the world we are mexicalts right?
