The garlic has done the trick it seems, though I nearly wretched chewing on a large clove.
I also really should have seen some of those responses coming from how I typed up the topic title xD
Thanks anyway, Escapists, this topic was an interesting read.

I dont like turkey

I would be enjoying a nice Thanksgiving dinner in a couple of hours except for the fact that I'm Canadian and our Thanksgiving was a month ago. Yay me!

 

[Numb1lp]

Suck it up? (not trying to sound mean.) I'm not really sure if there are instant cold remidies that work for everyone.

 

[Supreme Unleaded]

As someone els metionied, a hot shower is nice, also if you put some vasaline on your chest and under your nose it clears you up nice.

I'm English, and thus don't celebrate Thanksgiving.

Psh. Anyone can celebrate. All it requires is
A) Family and/or friends
B) Far too much food
C) Someone else's house which you can leave right after eating your fill

C is not optional, but it is far easier.

True, anyone can celebrate it but being English does somewhat exclude you from participating since the day has no meaning to us (you don't celebrate the 5th of November, do you?).

Greedy mares having two lots of Turkey a year! =)
I don't understand Spanksgiving probably because we don't celebrate it over here.
Anyway, I think I'm getting a cold, I just use Vicks, drink tea, blow my nose a lot and sleep.
My friend had a cold when giving a presentation, he sneezed and kept the snot in his hand the whole way through xD ewww.

To further demonstrate this, you don't really see anyone except the U.S. celebrating the 4th of July.

And for good reason, it's their holiday. It's their tradition. Just as Bonfire Night is an English holiday/tradition and Thanksgiving is, similarly, a U.S. tradition.

I could celebrate it, but I don't. And I doubt I ever will unless I move to the U.S. and date/marry a lass there.

I can see the appeal behind a holiday which has gorging yourself on roasted birds as a centrepiece, don't get me wrong, but it's not 'my' holiday.

Hot sauce didn't work? damn dude you must be hit bad. i usally use Cayanne pepper to clear up mine just a tiny tiny amount and im good. if you have tryed something similar to that, then this is useless.

 

[aarontg]

You might want to try a humidafier, also to eliminate at least the horible fealing of the sinuses you could stick some tissue up imbetween the sinuses as well.

This, but replace English with Danish.

well if you dont celebrate this whats the point in participating in this thread??? i mean it's not like you have to tell everybody

 

[Naheal]

I'm English a filthy Godless heathen (not redundant at all), and thus don't celebrate Thanksgiving.

Fixed, you paragon of masculinity you.

Oh, and you're one to talk!

OT: Not celebrating the holiday since I have none to celebrate it with.

*hair flick* Well at least you got the Paragon of Masculinity part right. And I'll have you know I shower regularly thank you very much. My body is decidedly not filthy - though I can't speak for my words.

Colo.

Spoiler: Vics Vapor Inhaler

Yeah, (and I'm not kidding here) Shove that up your nose and take a nice wiff. It works fine for me

Vapor Inhaler is AMAZING, but it's only a temporary fix - you'll need to hit it once every two or three bites.

f

Thank me later

I'd be very surprised if this doesn't work.

I'm Welsh. I don't even know what you celebrate on Thanksgiving. Also, I feel ill after eating a little right now so how could I manage loads.
lol

We apparently "give thanks to god" and then commit a mortal sin. (Gluttony)

Yes, this holiday defines us as americans.

HAHA Amazing observation! But hell, you don't need to wait for thanksgiving to find that kind of hypocrisy in American life!

thanksgiving, the day all Americans come together to celebrate invading the Native American peoples Land, Killing them, and Stealing all their land and buffalo. Ah tis a wondrous day to celebrate racism and genocide. ^^
