I wish this on no one. All the symptoms of flu with the added bonus of intestinal rot.

I don't get sick due to my strict diet of bear blood, diesel and heroin infused wolverine meat

Why do people with the flu constantly feel the need to update/talk about said situation?

Isn't this most of the time? There's thousands of strands of the flu, and they give you a shot for 1 strand they think might be most popular. What a load of bullshite.

Because it's a lonely place when you're at home, alone, and the devil is coming out of your arse with it's pitchfork spinning around in a whirlwind formation. Something to laugh about afterwards too

Got it two years ago and worst experience ever for 10 days straight. *knock on wood*

Because they can't talk publicly about their herpes.

No, usually much higher. ALSO, getting the shot reduces the severity of it if you do get it. And it has been proven to reduce the spread of the flu, esp to infants and elderly. Getting each year builds resistance for your lifetime as well. No down side to getting it.

Problem is it gives you autism.

Can't it possibly make you feel like crap for a little while?

I've gotten the flu BADLY one time back in 96. I lost 11 lbs in 1 week.

Finally got sick again this year. It it was for 2 days tops and I wasn't bed ridden.

Might be the flu, but probably the whiskey.

I got something real bad last week. Vomited all over my feet as I was shitting water into the toilet. Not good.

I actually welcomed the fever/chills as long as the above never happens again in life

Both my kids had it a couple weeks ago for a long time. Started with throwing up, then was running fever between 103-104 for a couple days. They kept low grade fever for about 5 days.

Going on Day 9 finally feeling better
I also had the flu shot this year, I guess they didn't choose the correct flu strands to cover in the shot this year
