Got the flu

Feel like shit. Threw up with such astonishing ferocity last night that I burst a number of blood vessels under my eyes and look like I've been beaten up now.

Slept from 10pm to 12.30pm (albeit with an hour at 3am to vomit - see above). My wife woke me up long enough to phone in sick to work this morning.

God I feel rough.

Had you had the jab?

Yes, along with Mrs Ferris and Ferris Jr.

We're all incredibly unwell.

Personally, if he posts tomorrow that he's taken a turn for the worse I will be absolutely made up.

Please could you post pictures of your eyes and some of the vomit you've done.

Sorry you feel rough ferriswheel but you haven't got flu. Stop getting viral illnesses wrong. If you had flu, you would not be posting cogent and well-composed posts on here. I had it in 2004 and after 2 days of drifting in and out of terrifying hallucinations and vomiting into a bucket (couldn't crawl to the toilet) until my eyes bled, I could just about bump down the stairs on my arse and keep down a glass of water.

Pro tip: paracetamol suppositories. When you're vomiting up anything you try to eat or drink, they will bring down the fever and help with the pain.

I have something 'orrible but maybe my flu shot mitigated it? I don't know, but I feel fucking awful. Maybe it's some other flu-like thing.

That said, I don't think I've ever posted anything cogent or well-composed on CaB so perhaps all this illness is good for me.

I had the flu just after Christmas in 2017 and it wasn't quite that bad, I slept most of the time and felt fucking horrendous when I was awake, but I was able to briefly post on here during the short times I was awake (https://www.cookdandbombd.co.uk/forums/index.php/topic,64453.msg3346477.html#msg3346477 for example). It was officially diagnosed by a Doctor in a Hospital flu too, after I was struggling to breathe one afternoon and in need of medication, so definitely the real thing.

Anyway, I'm sorry to hear you're suffering Ferris, and hope you and the family are back to normal soon. Kisses (through a face mask though, I don't want your death bug).

I ask: would a cool person get flu?

Danger Man

FLU is an acronym for Fucking Layabout Underclass.

So no, cool people can't get it.

I see...

And what if, for example, someone were to be a major lame-o? Would a major lame-o be susceptible to the flu?

I've got the flues, my baby's gone and left me and I've got the flues
