Filarids are amazing and swim into you through your skin
or your digestive tract and find nice places to screw you
up - elephantitis is just a worm that goes in and blocks
the lymphatic system so all the lymph juice stays where it
is and it sucks and they are just comfortable eating your
warmth and oxygen and blood and nutrients or whatever
they can find really
