Title: Cold Sore
Post by: Benja on November 03, 2019, 06:47:23 PM
Got my first one this weekend. Have to go into work tomorrow and do stuff all day/talk to people, etc.


Should I kill myself now? Wait until lunch tomorrow? Just quit my job and live life in the shadows, drifting from town to town?

I didn't even know these were really a thing. Is there some sort of sanatorium I'm supposed to check into? How many ointments, from 50 to 100, should I be applying a day?

Just tell everyone you kissed Les Miles and make a joke out of it.  Have you seen that guys shanker?

When I talk to clients and co-workers tomorrow, should I point it out immediately, thus getting ahead of the story so to speak? Should I hold a finger to my lip at all time, sort of appearing deep in thought but also incredibly weird? Should I put a band aid over it and say my girlfriend hits me?

On a scale of 9 to 10, how gross will it still look in a week?

Ok. People kinda hate those mask people and it may have a slightly detrimental effect on communication but I guess it beats open sores. Who needs to see my facial expressions anyways.

By the way; if you ever have a cold sore, you are supposed to apply this thing called Abreva approx every 3 minutes for a month or something, and it's the only thing that works and the only thing on the market that really is supposed to work at all, which is weird since it's for cold sores and people get them and maybe have more things out there (business idea?), but the cool part is that it takes like forever (couple minutes) to rub in and if you don't get it all rubbed in they made it bright white so it will like show up on your mustache and lips and stuff and its like hey look at my gross face and also this white crap in my facial hair. So if I go into work tomorrow I will have to go into the restroom to apply it in front of a mirror like a weirdo, and if anyone walks in it's like hey how its going just rubbing white crud on my gross face don't mind me, how are you.

Please be self-deprecating if you are admitting your gross condition. This is nothing to be proud of, or flippant. You're rough ridin' gross.
