sweepstakes Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Caught some new cold/flu bullshit just as I was getting over one. I guess it's a good thing I requested this week off. I was hoping to do something fun, or at least leave the house for more than 10 minutes, but it looks like I'll be on the couch watching Netflix on OTC drugs for the 3rd day in a row. Oh, well, it's only slightly above freezing outside anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, well, it's only slightly above freezing outside anyway. gingko biloba - 3x a day garlic extract - 3x a day grapefruit seed extract - 10 drops 3x a day in water vitamin c - 2 grams per day vitamin d - 4,000 IU per day Kombucha - 1-3 times per day You'll be better in like 3 days. I just stopped a cold from completely coming on with this remedy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweepstakes Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Sounds good. I have been wolfing down vitamin C and eating shit tons of garlic so I'm probably half way there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caze Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 That's funny, whenever I get a flu, which is rarely, I usually do absolutely nothing about it and that also works to get rid of it in like three days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bechuga Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Parents are separating. Not really any problem emotionally--I'm 32, who cares? They should have split up years ago--but as both parents are incapable of doing anything, I am expecting an extended period of awkward arrangements and dragged feet in just getting the whole thing over with. It's going to be messy. That's funny, whenever I get a flu, which is rarely, I usually do absolutely nothing about it and that also works to get rid of it in like three days. I found out recently that other people go to the doctor / hospital when they get the flu. Really? I just carried tissues in my pocket and blew my nose.

Adieu Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 (edited) That's funny, whenever I get a flu, which is rarely, I usually do absolutely nothing about it and that also works to get rid of it in like three days. that's the very baseline of the average for most people and symptoms persist for up to two weeks a lot of the time. You must be particularly resilient. Edited October 11, 2016 by AdieuErsatzEnnui Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hello spiral Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Yeah the anecdotal thing I always heard about the difference between a cold and 'flu is: You're lying in bed and you spot a £20 note blowing about in your garden. If you have a cold you get up, go outside and get it. If 'flu, it's not even a possibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adieu Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 When I was a kid I'd get the flu every year and it was basically a night full of endless puking to the point that my mom would give me a bucket next to my bed, and a few days of having a bad fever and barely being able to eat. I fondly remember the bouts of trying to make it to the bathroom and failing and puking on the door or in my bed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephyr_Nova Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 I just auditioned 11 different potential guitar parts for the chorus of a song I wrote, and I'm not 100% sold on any of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobDobalina Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 ^ maybe if is like 11 diff takes of the same written "part" (guitar lead, chord progression, whatev) but in re-reading the op it sounds like there are 11 alternative parts under consideration, I dunno Yeah the anecdotal thing I always heard about the difference between a cold and 'flu is: You're lying in bed and you spot a £20 note blowing about in your garden. If you have a cold you get up, go outside and get it. If 'flu, it's not even a possibility. I hope the 'chre never get the 'flu Is that really how the flu is written where you are or your own vernacular/zaz? I've always though us yanks to be way more superfluous with punctuation (e.g., Mr. not Mr) I am however disgusted by certain conventions to no use all caps for acronyms (Nasa, Esa, Uefa, Wtf?) Also don't understand why the US is EEUU in Spanish either but I digress When I was a kid I'd get the flu every year and it was basically a night full of endless puking to the point that my mom would give me a bucket next to my bed, and a few days of having a bad fever and barely being able to eat. I fondly remember the bouts of trying to make it to the bathroom and failing and puking on the door or in my bed. I hear ya, having never once made it to a toilet as a kid; always mid-sleep straight vomit out the side of my bed with no warning So our youngest 2-1/2 y.o. daughter apparently got something stuck up her nose, two weeks of blood tinged nasal drip out one nostril, took like 3 doctor visits todiagnose and they still don't know what it is. Now we have full anesthesia outpatient surgery on Monday, just the kind of procedure to assfuck my deductible (and by extension, moi) under pretty much all 'merican "heathcare plans" Thanks hypercapitalism Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hugh Mughnus Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 I was an asshole when i was a kid, about 4 years old... took a double wheel + axle out of a hotwheels car and threw it right up my nose. Needed a couple hospital visits to remove it. Maybe I'm secretly like Homer simpson with that crayon and I'm a gee-bnee-us, they never actually removed it! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also don't understand why the US is EEUU in Spanish either but I digress https://www.theguardian.com/media/mind-your-language/2013/aug/16/mind-your-language-apostrophe Examples of abbreviated words that are sometimes given apostrophes include 'flu (short for influenza), Hallowe'en (All Hallows Evening), and Jo'burg (Johannesburg). These all look a little old-fashioned and you don't need to bother, although I have kept fo'c'sle (forecastle) in the Guardian style guide for nostalgic reasons as it is a survivor from the very first "Style-book of the Manchester Guardian" in 1928.

Zephyr_Nova Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 in re-reading the op it sounds like there are 11 alternative parts under consideration, I dunno This is correct. I think the answer might be to playing something other than guitar on it. Either that or find the right sexy effect that makes the guitar magic. Maybe it's time to bring out the Zvex Fuzzfactory... that thing's an untameable beast, but maybe that's what the song needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KovalainenFanBoy Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 Also don't understand why the US is EEUU in Spanish either but I digress cause in spanish when a word is plural you double its correspondent letter in the acronym (Comisiones Obreras would be CCOO but Comisión Obrera would be CO) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
