Why does the flu exists ?

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Why don't you share the unapetising details only with us, the Dutch speaking bunch :urff: (BTW Spetterpoep :lol: Lang geleden dat ik die nog hoorde, ook racekak? :lol: :lol: )

Go really public or don't, :P

Still, hope you get better soon but hang around here a bit in the meanwhile, will you :D

Well I sincerely hope it's not catching. It all sounds rather ghastly and nasty. I certainly don't want to end up speaking Dutch ... :innocent:

If you want a biblical answer, the 'flu is part of God's punishment for the Fall of Adam and Eve back at the beginning of time circa 4004BC.

Or if you want a more probably correct answer...

The 'flu exists because there's a lovely ecological niche (your nose and throat) for it to grow and reproduce in.
The fundamental cause of the trouble is that in the modern world the stupid are cocksure while the intelligent are full of doubt.

The man upstairs and the man downstairs are having a competition.

Satan gave us the flu, and natural disasters.
God gave us Fundamentalist Conservative Christians.

Who's the more evil?

@ Shadow_Smile....hope you got through the night alright...
Second day....drink tea and as much liquid - do not want to dehydrate.
To get some of your strength back try tea and "beschuit" (dutch word).
Get as much sleep while your body is fighting the virus.
A few more days and it gets better....make sure there is enough toliet paper (get someone to stock it up).

@ hallucienate....for a sore throat....tea with fresh lemon or honey
and for the snotty nose....lots of tissues although keep the area around your nose in tact by using vaseline.

And get well soon.
it's all about circles and spirals
that ongoing eternity

been in bed for 2 day's,....... hate going out couse I have high bed, so I can use the space below it (hoogslaper van de "ikea") So every time when I have to go, I have these small mini stairs on my bed and go down by it, that take's 20 seconds. Once I nearly made to Mr. toilet, and was lucky that I have a good aim ! :roll:

But i'm sure you don't wanna know the rest of that one ! :urff:

beschuit is net een hap lucht, ik houd het wel by wat crakers.
