Smells like Teen Nucleotides

The zit has been a plot point of many teen dramas, the subject of countless infomercials starring Angela from Who's the Boss, and is the only skin condition which has been portrayed by John Belushi. But now that it's been sequenced, maybe we've got a fighting chance to wipe the little bastards off the face of the earth, without resorting to drugs that cause suicidal ideation.

Of particular interest here is the fact that the genes in question were actually mistaken for part of the human genome. I guess had there not been a fly in Brundle's transporter pod, he might've ended up slowly transforming into a giant pustule. They could've cast Brando instead of Goldblum. (pft pft, Zeus rest his soul)

This is all via boing boing, fyi.
