A friend told me of an old bagpiper who, when his lungs gave out, hooked up a foot-operated air pump to his bag.
Bagpipe Lung is real, and can be lethal.
Still, that has got to be better than a bagpipe earworm.
Not long ago, a piper died from an infection by stuff growing in his bagpipe.

This just means his wife will continue to work two jobs.
If google is realiable, this seems to be a real thing.
Not really funny. Recent articles have indicated people actually die from this. So maybe it’s not a joking matter.
Maybe dude was using as a bong ?

This one is like the first Breton pipes I heard, which made me think of the saucy French doing an “in your face, Brits”..
Funny, but this is a REAL affliction. A Scot died from a fungal lung infection caused by his unclean bagpipes ..
Is this supposed to be funny? Someone died from Bagpipe Lung disease just about a month before this cartoon came out. Is there no editorial control here?
