Acquired Paint Shop Pro Syndrome
The Centre for Disease Control in New Zealand today announced the identification of a new disease.
Tentatively named Acquired Paint Shop Pro Syndrome, the disease is highly infectious. Scientists at CDC say the disease is caused by a bacillus called staphloaibrush because of its brush-like shape. Under the microscope the bacillus is long and slender with a bristle like appendage at one end.
Symptoms of the disease include feverish babbling of words, such as font, blade, image, fill, and talking about invisible friends such as Cameranut, Luv2pnt,and Fabfont etc. Additionally, symptoms include feverish trading and storing of filters, masks and plug-ins, and a 'groaning' Graphics folder.
The disease is especially dangerous because it cannot only be passed along directly from one infected individual to another, but documented cases have been found where the sufferer caught the disease from reading a tutorial or joining a graphics exchange group.
The CDC says that while the disease is especially prevalent on an Internet Site called caedes.net, cases have been found on other sites around the globe.
Family members should be aware that while the disease may occasionally enter remission, it is at present incurable.
The patient should be given a quiet corner with a comfortable chair, ample supply of snack type treats, preferably Oreos, and good lighting.
Interruptions should be minimized.
