Breaking news: I have a cold

OP, Mama always said, "Feed a Cold, Starve a Fever". Time to ask a friend to deliver some chicken soup to you. Or order delivery.

In my Italian family, we always joked, "feed a cold, feed a fever." I just said it to my sister on Saturday (she was feeling a bit sick).

My recent terrible code lasted a full fucking month! Good luck OP.

Fed a cold, starve a fever OP. Get lots of sleep.

OP, do you expect us to believe you don’t have the appetite of an elephant when you’re well? We can see how you type.

I had Flu B in late March and still cough at the drop of a hat.

Colds suck. Get some soup and nice tea with honey. I found blackberry creamed honey and it was so good in chamomile tea.

What's Flu B precious? What's Flu B?

Get some rest . Being sick sucks! If you get the chills, boil limes with salt and drink it as hot as possible. Put vapor rub on your chest and feet and cover yourself. And go to sleep!

My Chilean mom always said: Feed a cold, starve a fever.

I don't know why but colds seem worse in nice weather. Maybe it's because we expect colds in winter?

Get well soon, OP.

OP is clearly on the spectrum and has Borderline Personality Disorder!

Vitamin B shots and stop drinking water with fluoride.

It's the patriotic duty of all Americans to take care of themselves, OP. Hopefully your cold (probably brought about by drinking the fluoridated water mentioned above) won't force you to consume precious healthcare resources. Take care of yourself, and get better so you can stay healthy next time.

Feel better, OP.

[quote]why the fuck do I always have raging hunger when I have a cold?

Maybe your body needs extra nourishment to fight off the virus.

I just caught a cold too. I normally get my flu shot in Oct and don't get sick, but I'm sick now.

I just came down with COVID 😔.

The expression “feed a cold, starve a fever” came about in the Middle Ages. If you were sick with a cold, you were probably going to recover, but if sick with a fever, more likely to die, so whatever scarce food there was wouldn’t be wasted on you.

Dang, I'm sick as f*** as well. Everything is just so cold.
