If the New Plague (aka cursing, check out my article about that) was COVID, this is Omicron. The largest disease in my school, and possibly others. This disease is so widespread even I have succumbed to it. I only know one person who is fighting it. This disease is so powerful that it lurks among every person in our school, spread in classrooms, hallways, lunchrooms, and everywhere else so silently.

This disease has no resistance, sweeping over new populations in weeks. This disease is the most powerful of them all.

So what is this Kin to Omicron?

It’s like, basically, like saying like like.

Saying the word like.

This disease infects so many people it’s crazy. Me as well, I’m not mad infected, but do have a mild case of the likes.

This is an infection of incredible magnitude. A true 100% infection rate.

A disease like this has achieved ultimate superiority, by utilizing the power of chain reactions and human habits, this disease has made it’s way into 1/20 of every word spoken at my school. After the, like is probably the most said word.

Why does this matter? Well it actually doesn’t matter, but you’re still reading
