I got the flu, and now i'm forced to stay at home, in my bed, with my laptop surfing the internet !!!

So why does the flu exists ? ? ?

I feel sick

- heb last van spetter poep
- some headache's
- warm, cold, warm ,cold,......... in wave's
- dizzyness
- feels like i'm a snail when walking to the bathroom
- zo nu en dan lekker brokkelen met wat ik net gegeten heb !
- aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrggggggggg,................

any one got a cure ?

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

Go really public or don't,

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

I think the Ducht understanding people can handle it better the English !

They still need to get used to some of the Dutch things

Smart move

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 ...

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.

I feel much much better now

Hmmmmmmm,............... remind me to never open a bible. Maybe the man upstairs has given us much more trouble then we know

it was all fine until the man downstairs got involved, apparently. or until pandora opened that box.


i haven't got flu, but i can feel it coming

Don't worry Zeno... my p*ss-poor knowledge of your fine language plus a bit of initiative has helped me work it out, I think...

These bugs are kinda groovy. Darwinism in action - adapt and survive and all that ...[/in-depth scientific analysis, I don't feel like it today...]

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?

I blame global warming. And Emily.

Also spetter poep, or worse things ?

Not sick (yet) myself, I'm just bloody tired, so wouldn't be surprised if the flu came up in the near future

Obviousman wrote: Also spetter poep, or worse things ?

Nope
Just a sore throat and snotty nose.

@ 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.

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 !

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

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