gollark: I'll have to think of something. Or remember my previous ideas.
gollark: Oh great, I completely forgot to program an April fool's joke for my website this year...
gollark: I don't think infecting everyone at once would be very smart. Health systems would be overwhelmed and many people who might otherwise not get it would.

gollark: That's worse?
