A twink intern brought LICE to the workplace!!

Shave your head, just in case, OP.

Be grateful that the intern is such a forward thinker. Most people only bring doughnuts or bagels.

How is that possible. Aren't all thinks on PrEP, which prevents everything?

Lice, not crabs.

This is not helping the perception of Gen Z twinks being particularly unhygienic.

Probably has the Syphilis too.

OP there are probably little liceys hatching on your head you type.

Z gens are a worse generation than the millennials.

Told you bitches I was hardcore!

and now DL/ what workplace is he in? don't hold back...

Is it an unpaid internship? Serves the company right that they hired a bum to work for them for free.

Go out and get yourself a flea and tick collar and wear it like a belt.

A law firm, R10. I work in accounting, so he had little contact here except occasionally.

You should offer to give him a bath and wash his head for him.

OP, what about all the times you lustfully sniffed the intern’s hair?

Not to worry, unless you rimmed him.

That's disgusting. Wait for him after work and beat him senseless. Cover yourself with Saran Wrap beforehand, though.

He probably brought crabs, too. They were probably crawling all over the office toilet seat.

And bedbugs. And AIDS of course AIDS.

Nit picking varmint.

You ought to be fine OP unless you were all hanging your coats in the same closet - but if I were you I would buy some of that anti lice shampoo just to be sure.

Probably unpaid, R11. Or I can't imagine him getting paid very much for his light office duties.

He's cute but too young for my taste, R15. I wouldn't have said no to seeing him nude but now with this lice? Ick.

Prepare to die OP.

Can I have your stuff?

I hear they taste like almonds.

kill it

kill it with FIRE

Does the intern have stinky feet as well?

You're going to have bleach your entire head.

I read from the Daily Mail, lice don't like obese people, OP. So you're safe.

Dunk your head in kerosene

lice can jump 9 feet..........there used to be a great deal of social stigma to getting/spreading them, but we NOW KNOW that ANYONE can geet them by just shopping in the grocery aisle, walking down a sidewalk, going to a movie, eating in a resturant.........so on...............there may be no one at his home, or in his life that gave this to him.........he may have simply stood next to the wrong person at the bus stop............we all need to understand this..........

What you're speaking of sounds dangerously like compassion R32.

Please, remember yourself.

It's time to fumigate the ENTIRE OFFICE and all the furniture! Work from home day for you!

Sounds like a good, hard, thoughtful spanking is in order.

Jumping lice?? Great, now I have something else to irrationally worry about.

I ❤️R33

Ewww OP has cooties

No.

And lice do not jump like fleas. They do move very quickly along the hair shaft, though. They usually move from one clean head to another during brief contact or proximity. They like long, clean, straight hair the best. They tend to lay their eggs close to the scalp, in the hair at the nape of the neck and behind the ears. If you are worried, get yourself checked out. If you have to work near this person, you should keep your hair and head away from them. You can also buy deterrent spray (with rosemary and lavender oil) which is a lot nicer to use than those awful lice shampoos you have to use when you get the lice.

Lizsh?

Yeah get a flea and tik collar and wear it as a choker.

Gen z people are weird and gross. I work with a bunch of gen z women who wear leggings, hoodies or sweatpants everyday yet spend a lot of money on things like lip injections and eyelash injections.

R42, where do you work? Office?

R39, thanks for your voice of reason. OP and pearl-clutching drama queens, the spread of head lice is unrelated to hygiene. Fortunately never happened to me, but it occurs in every school at some point.

Since someone mentioned kerosene, here's a true story. I've always sought friends from older generations. A female friend who was a hippie and into various substances in the 1960s was going cross country in a VW Bus to Haight-Ashbury in SFO with 2 male friends. During the trip, they caught public lice ("crabs") and didn't have insurance. She and I don't know how her male friends tolerated their "treatment," but undiluted gasoline applied to their affected areas killed all those crabs! She did see a local doctor for appropriate care. "If you lie with dogs, you get fleas."

R44, there are all sorts of home remedies. A paste of baking soda and listerine is non-toxic. Or some thick fatty substance to smother them, like mayo or coconut oil.

Did he bring enough for everyone?

The organic method of lice removal. Dealt with lice personally. Not me. Relative. Learned this from a rest home employee.

Wash your head with olive oil. Leave it on all night using shower cap. The lice cant breathe because they are coated with olive oil.

In the morning remove the olive oil with standard shampoo. Rinse and repeat every night until all the eggs have hatched and the baby lice have died.

[quote]You can also buy deterrent spray (with rosemary and lavender oil) which is a lot nicer to use than those awful lice shampoos you have to use when you get the lice.

Yes, LCM/R39, but does OP spray the Licey Intern or himself? I would pay good money to see OP run up on LI and spray him full on the head and neck.

Jesus, somebody needs to give Gen Z a crash course on washing and hygiene? Any volunteers?

I'm beginning to become itchy. I hope they told him to stay at home until he gets this sorted out. I would use the shampoo as a precaution, or go to one of those salons that treat children. I'm sure they would be able to give you a good inspection, and treatment if you need it.

[quote] They do move very quickly along the hair shaft, though. They usually move from one clean head to another during brief contact or proximity.

I can do this too. We was teached this skill in architecture school.

Op, hose the entire area down. Don't worry about offending people, it's got to be done. I mean rid spray the carpet, and chairs that are fabric. People might be put off by you and the spraying, but pay them no mind.

I treat people who are sick and come to work, the exact same way. They won't like it; FYI.

How to spread lice.

He has the AIDS you know.

You need to bring something into the workplace to eat the lice, like an aardvark.

I had lice at 18 or 19. When I found out I broke down in tears because I felt like a loser and outcast anyway at that age. I was a socially awkward virgin without any friends and now, to top it all off, I had LICE! Don't remember how I ultimately got rid of them, but one thing I tried was going to the sauna. My mother had read somewhere that the heat would kill the lice.

You could suggest that treatment to the young intern and offer to accomany him for, you know, some emotional support. Just don't sit too close to him.

Do eagles eat lice? Bring one to work.

Speaking of kerosene, also consider lighting him on fire.

Thank God it wasn't RICE! Carbs kill!

I bet a grease fire would kill them.

OP is just starting vicious rumors, all because I wouldn't let him suck my stinky toes and sniff my dirty hole.

With r56's approach to lice, it would be no surprise to find out he still has them.

This thread has been surprisingly funny.

Lice prefer clean hair, and getting them has nothing to do with hygiene. They are very stigmatizing, and the horror of them among the frauen on the Upper East Side is almost hilarious to watch, because it’s poor and dirty trash who get them. I personally know of an outbreak at Spence hahaha. They love the long clean straight hair of those private school girlies.

There’s a rumor that black people don’t get lice. They do, but much less often, in far fewer numbers.

A monkey would quite happy to groom him thoroughly. Ting tang, walla walla bing bang.

Did the licey intern show up to work today?

This thread makes me itch down there
