Me while running a fever and doing many nebulizer treatments: I'm going to hang out with some friends!
My concerned mother: but you're sick??
Me while blowing my nose aggressively: My covid test is negative, it's fine
My very concerned mother: but you are really sick????
Me while shivering from the fever and having difficulty standing up: its not covid, I'm fine
My mother who is tired of my bullshit: no, you are staying here and doing another round of the nebulizer
Me while giving up and taking a nap: fine, but you have to turn off the light for me... Thanks...
weirdest side effect of the pandemic is how many people i know who get sick and say 'but my covid tests are negative so i should be fine' like you know other illnesses. exist. right.
