That's a pretty cheap word. Isn't it just a big string of the amino acids in whatever it was? >.> There's not even anything creative about it. To me it sorta reads like typing a sentence without the spaces.

Fixed spelling because you cant figure out what I'm trying to say by simply looking at it.

Now that that is finished lets talk about the topic, okay?

holy shit thats a substantial amount of Y's and L's.

[open]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that just the sequence of amino acids that's made from the viral DNA? So it's not really the longest word, because any protein could be written out as amino acids and be waaaay longer.
