As you all know, I want to go into neuropsychology as a profession. Why? Because of crazy shit like cysticercosis.

Today in class we learned about a dude who contracted a parasitic infection from eating improperly cooked pork in Mexico. The parasite LAID EGGS IN HIS BRAIN which later hatched and died, and left holes and scaring in his brain. He was left with significant cognitive impairment [due to other issues as well like a seizure disorder and stroke] and we had to examine his cognitive testing results.

Is that not the grossest thing you've ever heard of? Check out the MRI of a patient who had cysticercosis.
