Bacteria Gone Wild

I can't get out of my mind all the images I see of bacteria on TV. Like how they say your kitchen is more polluted with bacteria than is your toilet. The bad thing about this truth is that we do most of our food preparation in the kitchen. So there they are, unseen, unheard, but lurking...

I need a visor and some lens with super power to see them all ganged up right there in the open, doing their work brazenly, in the certain knowledge that no one can bring them down. Well, with poison maybe, except it keeps the strongest as survivors and eventually leads to a super strain of mutant, unstoppable bacteria. That's what happens when you use too much athlete's foot spray. You think the bacteria's gone but they're just biding their time till they carry you off in the night, feet first.

With a visor and the lens we would be in a position to videotape bacteria and warn the rest of the world before it's too late. We'll call our production "Bacteria Gone Wild," and show how brazen they are. Lifting their shirts, sticking their tongues out, drunk and wild.
