It's weird that they specified stomach as where the twin was chilling out. That seems like the worst place for a fetus to be.
I guess the stomach beats a fetus kidney stone.

Saying that kid "gave birth" because they removed a parasitic twin is like putting a person with underdeveloped arms in a tent and saying they're the "fruit of an unholy union between a woman and a seal".

Well, the sensationalistic presentation worked so well that even people who think it is barum and bailey's style filth are intrigued enough to repost it, discuss it, and inevitably, draw more people to huffpo's shit site in order to contribute to their impressions-per-minute rating. Additionally, even crosslinking for the purpose of criticising them aids their page rank...
So, imo:
Huffpo: 1
Critics of huffpo: 0
Its sensational shit indeed, but even detracting from it virally spreads it and inevitibly assists in making huffpo a profit.

I see you are familiar with the "Gawker" business model. It's quite lucrative when done correctly.
Whether or not it is real, my first thought was "WHERE IS YOUR GOD NOW?"
I still enjoyed the article. I suppose I could have just linked to the YouTube vid but I thought the article was a better choice.
