      I don’t think it’s allergies, man. I think one of the cows you’ve spoken to may have exposed you to mad cow disease. Remember to maintain six feet when YOing the cows.

He was freaking out and ended up calling his mom who also didn't believe him. Then she took him to the hospital and the doctor didn't believe him. They all just thought he was tripping. Then finally when the doctor looked in his ear it was totally a moth. Thought that was a one in a million experience. You fkn rip Chad! You're mindfulness and determination is the most inspiring thing on the internet. Thanks for the positive energy brother!
