Today is indeed a day for taking out the trash.

oh I did that when I was constantly sick
why doesn’t he trash can tho
The sad part of this is that my first reaction was “no! He’s wasting them!”
I actually own proper handkerchiefs for when I have a runny nose because I hate using tons of tissues that have almost nothing on them. Because, at all other times, I am “that person” who neatly folds my tissue, blows my nose into one corner, and then folds it up and puts it in my pocket for next time. Only once all four corners are besmirched do I throw it away.
Logically, I know that that’s the much more ecologically responsible way to do things.
Emotionally, I recoiled away from my screen in disgust at the thought of carrying around a used snotrag.
I was a disgusting kid, I would constantly blow my nose on the hem of my shirt, idk how anyone put up with me
YES in public YES walking around with snot on my shirt front
I do something similar, although I blow in more of a cross pattern. Also, I don’t use tissues, I prefer paper towels or napkins in a pinch. More durable, less likely to blow a hole in them and scatter “stuff” all over my hands, and gentleness is wasted on a pachyderm like myself.
Today’s trash maybe includes Walky himself.
I think Willis means the thrash in the White House. Fitting indeed.
Five hours and seventeen minutes remaining as of this comment.
Remarkable timing or has someone been playing with the Order?
…and rubber gloves, too.
I guess their abductee superpowers don’t prevent them from getting sick.
I’m amazed they make abductee-strength tissues.
This, of course, is a Man of Steel, Kleenex of Kleenex situation.
For once, I am Walky.
The mighty hero, laid low by a humble rhinovirus!
I’m glad that I’m not the only one who goes through tissues like they’re water when they have a cold!
Last time I went through tissues like that, I had a wicked sinus infection that made my nose run like a faucet, with regular expulsions of deep-sinus crap the color (and, it felt, quantity) of egg yolks. Usually I try to snort-and-swallow as much as possible instead of blowing everything out into tissues, but not that time.
For the last couple months I’ve been getting thick, rubbery chunks of postnasal drip. Very annoying when they stick to the soft palate and won’t hack loose for love or money.
Looks like I’m done eating lunch for today, thank you for helping me stick to my diet. lol
I often get sinus infections and have the same problem. At least this winter I’ve gotten to suffer through it from the comfort of my couch in my PJ’s because of COVID.
Ooh! Good burn, Willis! Yes, the trash is gone indeed.
