    Jesus, that’s the basest of bacterial soups he’s basting in. That’s sewage and corpse water.

    Necrotizing fasciitis isn’t a single bacteria. It’s a bacteria gone wild such that the tissue dies under the stress of it. This guy’s feet and junk are in that mess.

    Horrifying outcomes may happen.

    Well, that’s a great way to get a really bad infection.

    Flood waters contain everything from sewage to dead animals to parasites.

          Edit: The downvotes are making me wonder how many people didn’t get past the first sentence before skipping the rest.

          God is God to all living things, fire ants included. And did He not say, ‘Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you. And as I gave you the green plants, I give you everything.’ (Genesis 9:3). And lo, the fire ants rejoiced, and partook of his great bounty (college students sitting in flood waters), and were fruitful.

    Going to school in a hurricane-prone state? That sounds like a great idea!

    Seriously I refuse to live anywhere that wouldn’t remain well above sea level even if you melted every ice crystal on earth. If the universe wants to natural disaster me to death it’s gonna have to go the extra million miles and drop an asteroid on me.
