Incidentally, folks, PSA from me to you: do not fuck with this year’s flu. 

I don’t know if it’s the dominant strain or if I just lucked out and got the collector’s edition, but the one I’m recovering from has the chops to put people in the hospital.  That fucking virus just laid me flat on my back for five straight days.  I could barely even take a shower, and yesterday was the first time in three days I had the strength to check my computer.

So basically: do not fuck around.  Pony up $20 and a stick to bite down on and go get your flu jab.  You do not want any part of this.
