We have an outbreak of nits on the board.

Although nits sound dangerous, they are quite harmless (if caught early) and a very common problem among GR members between the ages of 40- and 100-years-old, especially in group settings where they can spread happily and hungrily from member to member.

Check yer ead!!!
