Horrendis Typosis
It's a new game! Yay!
Ok, here are the rules.
1. Take a disease, ailment or other medical condition (I will use Tourette's as an example because Fortune Cookie already went there and has provided the inspiration).
2. Misspell it in an amusing way (FC spelled it Turrets).
3. Make up a definition.
So... (and I'm sure you guys can do better...)
Turrets
Horrible disfigurement recognisable by a large gun or cannon protruding from the forehead that fires randomly with varying degrees of intensity. _________________ Twitter: jefftunes

S'curvy - A neurological disorder which effects a large percentage of heterosexual men, a much smaller percentage of bisexuals and lesbians and almost non-existent in homosexual men.
Etymology: A strong impulse from the optic nerve shuts down all non-essential brain function and diverts most of the body's blood flow from the brain to the lower torso.
Symptoms: The loss of all propensity for rational thought.
Severity: There appears to be a directly proportional correlation between the severity of the symptoms and the levels of testosterone in the body.
Known Causes: The visual perception of an attractive, or "voluptuous" female. _________________ Avoid being normal -- John Lennon
