I had to think of Gaspode. But he does not have ALL diseases. Does he still count?

;-)

As it has been pointed out, this was a false alarm with a gullible muppet thinking TV is accurate.

Sounds like he's referring to Job, from the bible. But that's not the Avengers...

Well that's going to make Christmas awkward for you then because it was, of course, ya mamma!

No it's not. The Avengers was more believable and all together more enjoyable, but I digress. :D

Nurgle.

i suggest watching tomb raider the cradle of life :p

Aye - did you see the link I posted?!

chrome didnt like it, wouldnt open it at first but it works now,

I have never watched that series so I had no idea. He had said it was mythology and the name midas so thats where i started looking came up with nothing and so i came here to the #fountain of knowledge that is the GOG GD forums.

I suggest making a profit by selling him some magic beans!

I'm with you, tinyE, but Job was what immediately came to mind when I read 'afflicted with every disease'.

Job wasn't afflicted with "every disease", just several nasty ones. If I remember correctly from reading that book, the precise diseases in question were unidentified (in the "dreaded skin disease" sense).

Personally, I'm slighlty ashamed that as a Pratchett fan I didn't think of Gaspode, but I thought of the people in episode 1, series 2 of the modern Doctor Who. The futuristic hospital that was the subject of the story had secretly created a race of humans infected - between them - with every disease known of, and was testing on them to find cures.

Finally a reasonable answer.

*sigh* Yes, I realize that. I figured the 'every disease' was hyperbole on the part of the friend who asked about it. As I said, it just brought the story of Job to mind.

Immune to all, not carrier of all.
