Sickness Season has started

So this past weekend, I was out of Founders (my dorm) because my brother was home. I really wasn't on campus a whole lot. Now I'm not sure what happened in the 48 hours that I was gone, but I'm pretty sure that the Rage Virus has taken over. Seriously, everyone in the dorm is sick.

Here's a before and after:
BRAAIIINNNNS!
So now, everyone around me is coughing and hacking, including my roomie Eric. Poor guy. But if I get sick, I will punch every other sick person in the ovaries just out of spite. So anyway, this leads me to my next point: Medicine.

So the generally accepted nighttime cure-all for any sickness at college, besides booze, is Nyquil. I swear, the stuff is made from the tears of angels. It tastes like you're licking someone's boot, but you feel AMAZING.
Nyquil also somehow manages to defy the laws of...taste, I suppose. Now Nyquil comes in two colors: Red and Green. And Nyquil also comes in two flavors: Red and Green. It is quite possible that it is the only consumable item in existence that tastes like a color. Especially the green stuff. What is that shit? If somebody can tell me, please do.


Nyquil: Now with more Green!


Now there is another option. Even though Nyquil clearly kicks the most ass with sick kids and stoners alike, Tylenol is trying to move in with this shit:

What the fuck is in this bottle? It looks like Smurf spooge. And it tastes like wintergreen, which is not you'd expect. When you take stuff like this, you expect it to taste awful. But this stuff...it's not quite bad. But it's not quite good either. Just...odd. It's kinda like liquid toothpaste. So it's pretty gross.
But not as gross as when people chug this shit straight from the bottle. That's just nasty.
