Warning: Have You Caught the AC Bug?

It is Extremely Contagious and Beneficial

Laurie Meekis
I seem to have caught a bug of some sort, and I'm told it is highly contagious. Unlike other bugs though, the AC Bug is considered not only harmless, but is extremely beneficial. I have been encouraged to pass this particular bug on, in any way I can.

The bug is know as www.AssociatedContent.com or The AC Bug for short. It seems to have mostly a positive effect on people. The symptoms to watch out for are as follows:

1. Itching - Itching to get to the next article and write it. The itch comes and goes, but it seems to subside in the midst of a writing frenzy.

2. Insomnia - Losing track of time while the patient is writing, then suddenly realizing it is 3 a.m. and they should consider getting some rest, in order to enable them to get up, get going and get back to scratching the itch the following day.

3. Hunger - The person with an AC Bug has constant hunger to research, find ideas, review things in their lives, and share everything with others. They feed on knowledge and information in the written and spoken word, in whatever form they find it.

4. Pain - Pain is only associated with the inability to calm the itching and hunger. The pain quickly recedes when the affected person is able to write and contribute.

5. Restlessness - This occurs when the person affected by the AC Bug is unable to get to a computer and inspect their words of wisdom. A person suffering from this symptom, may be seen pacing back and forth, until they have computer access again. A simple temporary treatment for this particular symptom is to give the sufferer a pad of paper and pen and encourage that person to take it with them wherever they go.

6. Obsessive Compulsive Behavior - The person with obsessive compulsive behavior as a part of the AC Bug, will often be seen frantically gathering information from newspapers, magazines, art projects from their children's backpacks, taking camera shots of very strange objects like a pair of shoes, a toy, a flower or an AC awareness sticker placed on a myriad of objects or people. They compulsively take notes wherever they go, or from whatever they read, whichever of the two feeds that part of the compulsion.

7. Creative Juices - The person with the AC Bug has an excess of creative juices and are known to put gray matter to good use. At times these creative juices can dry up, which is not conducive to treatment of the AC Bug, but no worries, with persistence, or by communication with other people who have the AC Bug, the juices can be stimulated to produce again.

How is The AC Bug Transmitted?

The AC Bug is a unique bug, in that it cannot only be transmitted from person to person in close proximity, it can also be caught by email, blogging, online chat of all kinds, posting on websites, snail mail, linking, talking on the phone, or by mouth.

Close proximity is not necessary in order to catch this bug; however, contact in any of the above mentioned is necessary in order to pass it on and share the AC Bug with others, and to encourage them to infect each other, by reading articles and/ or writing them.

Under the microscope the bug is made up of continuous alphabetic letters, joined together to form a string of comprehensive thought. It is known to continually mutate into thousands of other forms and exhibit itself in pages of informative writing, visual to the naked eye, or in some cases the bespectacled eye.

The bug comes in all colours and shapes, ages and abilities, but is easily identified by the deposits it makes, both to it's home nest www.AssociatedContent.com, and to various banking establishments, via PayPal injections.

Treatment and Prognosis:

Treatment for the AC Bug consists of filling out a simple registration form, and then applying pen to paper, or fingers to keyboard. The more the person with the AC Bug applies the paper and keyboard methods of treatment, the better the outcome will be. Enjoy the AC Bug and spread it around!
