My tapeworm is named Molly! I love Molly.

lol, nice description. Although, I could have sworn I've seen this on videosift before. Must be my imagination...

^You're not too far off, syncron. Someone else posted a video of a parasitic worm discovered during a colonoscopy:

But this is a different parasite, and hopefully a different colon.
I am so tired of them pulling flatworms out of my ass.

Ah ok, they are really similar!

Okay, please indulge me for one moment. This video reminds me of a very stupid joke from when I was a kid. Here goes:

A bodybuilder has a competition coming up and he's starting to freak out; no matter how much he eats and lifts, he keeps getting thinner. He finally sees a doctor who diagnoses him with a tapeworm that, he explains, is eating all the nutrients the bodybuilder consumes.

The doctor tells him to pull down his pants and bend over. He's so desperate he complies without question. The doctor shoves two Oreo cookies up his butt then tells him to return the next day.

When he arrives the doctor repeats the treatment, shoving two Oreos up the bodybuilder's rectum.

The third day the bodybuilder returns again. This time the doctor crams only a single Oreo cookie inside and tells the patient to stay still in the jack-knife position.

Suddenly the tapeworm sticks his head out the guy's ass and yells, "Hey! Where's my other fuckin' cookie asshole?!"

The doctor grabs the sucker by the neck, smashes his head with a claw hammer, and yanks the damned thing out.

YUCKO!

Not FDA Approved in USA (No Surprise!)

And this from Feedzilla

The tapeworm diet: This one involves swallowing cysts that you've dissected out of beef carcass. You allow the tapeworm to live in you for up to 10 weeks. One of the most dangerous diets, it requires you to swallow a parasite and encourages unhealthy eating habits.

I remember a story a while ago of some models tryig to sustain a low weight and trying a Tapeworm Diet...

I like how my anual colenoscopies will ensure im always free of these sucker.s horrid damn things.

I dont know much about them.. but arent they near impossible to remove

I remember in highschool biology, they said in 3rd world countries that can't afford doctors to remove these. The person who's infected would starve themselves, then pull pants down and hold a peice of meat near the anus. The worm is so hungry at that point that it would crawl out the anus and then you can you can grab it and pull it out!

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag.(show it anyway)

^ Wow - that's utterly disgusting - though sounds almost plausible.
