Cup of tea, a fire and a good book. And no, I'm not three hundred years old.

I fended off the beginnings of man-flu last week. I'm left with only a mild man-cold.

I propose a series of experiments that can be conducted within the safety of your won home that will not only address your own personal boredom but also further the world of science and knowledge.

*the eternal question how yummy are doggie treats to humans
*does the fridge light stay on after closing the door
*how many frozen peas can one comfortable fit into ones belly button
*various methods of putting out candles without the use of blowing
*can a human being fit into a tumble without any of ones major extremities
protruding
*is it possible to weigh breasts using food scales

Have it the last week and a half, and no matter how many tablets I take it won't go away, so I've just averted to alcohol as the cure.:cool:

taken from wikipedia

Man flu is a largely pejorative term that refers to the exaggerated symptoms experienced by men when suffering from flu or a cold.

*how hard is it to cut yourself with a butter knife
*what household fluids, either cleaning or edible, can be used to created an accurate depiction of the shower scene from Psycho
*can a cheese grater be used effectively for the removal of unsightly dried skin
*test the advertising claim of Johnsons 'no tears formula' when poored directly into the human eye

Please write a book of these. Then please invite me as a VIP to your book signing in Eason's!

Have tried these already -->

*the eternal question how yummy are doggie treats to humans - Very yummy, but only the biscuits. Tried frying up the tinned stuff before and its revolting

*does the fridge light stay on after closing the door - Yes, but you have to break a piece off the fridge to keep it on (not recommended)

*how many frozen peas can one comfortable fit into ones belly button - 3. They are cold.

*various methods of putting out candles without the use of blowing
- Concentrating really hard = No
- Shouting at it = No
- Reverse psychology ("I hope this candle never goes out ever") = No
- Asking Jeeves to blow out my candle = No
- Spitting on it = No, although I did miss
- Covering it with newspaper - No, but that did cause my bedroom to catch fire
- Firemen = Yes (they came to put out the fire in my room and extinguished the candle also)

So there you have it, if you want to put out a candle without blowing on it you better call the Fire Dept.

*can a human being fit into a tumble without any of ones major extremities
protruding - I cant but my baby brother can. Once he finishes his cycle I'll see if he liked it (I would imagine he did as I havnt heard a peep out of him for about an hour)

*is it possible to weigh breasts using food scales - I dont have breast but I did try my testicles...I would rather not divulge those results.

Aye, got the manflu here, I couldn't even drag myself to the pub last night, that's how bad I got it. The sad thing is, I could've done with the whiskey.

eirebhoy

I had a cold all last week. Stayed in all weekend for the first time since about January to sort myself out. Went to the gym on Monday and all hell broke loose. Ear started bleeding, constantly coughing, headaches, dizziness, sweats, shivers and couldn't eat for about 30 hours. All caused from a bloody cold. Off work all this week. I'm still a bit deaf with the ear infection but chest infection has eased.

Poor little bunnies. *pets*

i heard of a woman in Cork who got the manflu and has developed superpowers - she can now park a car.

riff-raff

No not your maa jokes!! anyway I thought MANFLU!! was for men only ..just a thought it might be the name that gives it away:p..I afraid I am also a sufferer of this dreaded afflication known as MANFLU!:( had it about 2 weeks with no shifting it

The man who told me also said she bought a round of drinks in a pub.

So I have my doubts - but if she survived manflu - well its possible

Felt it kicking in on Thursday so starting taking preventative measures against it.
I managed to dodge the worst of it but went on the piss last night and now I can feel it returning...

CDfm

emo!! having the manflu just means you are super sensitive dont tackle this without expert help.

If getting advice from females on treatment make sure they use the words " A man once told me" that way you know it is genuine and has a chance of success.

I had originally considered the possibility of this.
But I'm fairly sure it's manflu. Throat is all tight and the limbs are leaden. Can't afford to get sick with the amount of work I have due in college this week..
