  • Tis the season to be sick...

    I feel a nasty cold creeping up on me. Just curious what people out there do when they get a cold or flu. My personal favorite is ... well ... Dennis Leary said it best:

    Tonight I'm on NyQuil and Sudafed. Let me tell you something, folks. Forget about cocaine and heroine. All you need is NyQuil and Sudafed. I'm telling you right now, I took the NyQuil five years ago. I just came out of the coma tonight before the f***ing show! Claus Vanbulo was standing over my bed going, "Denis, get up! There's something the matter with Sunny! Hurry up!" I love NyQuil. Man, I love it! I love it. I love it. I love it. It's the best thing shit ever invented. Isn't it, huh? I love the name alone. NyQuil - Capitol N, small Y, big f***ing Q! I love that f***ing Q, don't you!? What a great advertising idea! Put a huge f***ing Q on the box. They'll get high and stare at it. "The Q is talking to me! The Q is talking to me!"

    I love NyQuil, man. Because NyQuil has never changed, man. It's never changed. All the other medicines are doing that inner-child thing. "we know that there's a small child inside of you, so now we have grape and cherry and orange flavor." Not NyQuil! They still have the original green death f***ing flavor! You know why!? Because it doesn't matter what it tastes like! It's so strong you go, "*wheeze* Hey this stuff really tastes like.." Bang! Yer in the coma already! "What happened?" "He said tastes like and he went right into the coma, it was unbelievable!" We have reached the point where the over the counter drugs are actually stronger than anything you can buy on the street. It says on the back of the NyQuil box, on the back of the box it says, "May cause drowsiness." It should say, "Don't make any f***ing plans! Kiss your family and friends goodbye. Say hello to Klaus!" NyQuil, NyQuil, NyQuil, we love you! You giant f***ing Q!

    NyQuil is the secret for all you twelve step recovery program people. Yes, all you AA people, NyQuil is the key! It's the thirteenth f***ing step! You can drink it! It's over the counter! Drink as much as you want. "Are you drunk?" "No! I have a cold. Same cold I've had for two years. I just can't seem to shake it. I'm high as a kite and my teeth are green. Merry f***ing Christmas!"

      NyQuil gets you right stoned if you can fight off the drowsiness!

        Yep. Although Dayquil is just as good if you don't want to go to sleep.

          Excuse my ignorance but what's NyQuil ???

          When I catch a cold / flu, it's usually lot's of tea and sleep. If I get both + some sweating and a hot shower, I'm already better after 18 hours.

            I think Jammrock has lost it or has he been taken over by the _XXXX_ brigade?

                Cold, wrap up warm drink plenty of fluids take a few days of work unless you hate the people you work with and it's gone in five days.
                Alternatively fill yourself with pils etc and it's also gone in five days.

                  Dogbert,
                  NyQuil is the magic that happens when they make a cold medicine with every ingredient they can think of that "may cause drowsiness," and then mix it all up in a nice, effect-amplifying alcohol bath.

                          I have that, "I'm starting to get sick and when I wake up tomorrow life is going to be hell," feeling today. The symptoms are starting...ick.

                            Havent had a real bacterial cold in 10 years.... (they seem to have died out)

                            Have had the 12 hours viral iritation with running nose and dried out body about 4 times a year....

                            And when I feel I need a boost I eat some concentrated sugar

                            Other than that I feeel really sick whenever I'm near my brothers awfull angora cat. (When he's home and not terroraising the neigborhods dogs )

                              I don't know about Nyquil... Never seen it here. My parents are self-employed, so they can't afford to miss a work day... If they feel a cold approaching they usually take Echinaforce with a spoon (tastes awful). They claim it has worked quite good so far?
