    (He walks in, wearing an un-flattering speedo)
    “Hey, babe. You ready for a good time?”
    “Oh. God. Honey…please, not now, I have a splitting headache. I’ve had this stuffed up nose and it feels like I haven’t been getting enough air all day.”
    “I have good news for you, and great news for me.”

      Wet dreams? Though when I’m sick, congestion seems to disappear when I sleep (only to return after I wake up.) So if that’s normal and if wet dreams have some kind of decongestant property, we may never know.

    I thought everybody knew this…

    though it has a 50% chance of increasing your sinus pressure and make it feel like the only way to release the pressure is by scooping your brains out of your eye socket with a spoon.

      Sometimes one good sneeze is better than an orgasm.

      People on the internet have lead me to believe that you can meditate yourself into a hands free orgasm but i personally can’t be bothered to find out if that’s real. Who knows, maybe it wouldn’t even work for me.
