In sum: norovirus, baby! Projectile top and bottom. Hits hard, symptoms pass pretty quick. To not get it, wash those hands all the dang time. If you do get it, stay the fuck home for three days afterward.

It's pretty bad.

I agree - to cut your chance in HALF, wash your hands with hot water and soap - use the cheapest soap you can. As often as you can.

Also agree you should stay home. It's hard for families where the kids get it one after the other tho.

Are you saying that novovirus is going around Seattle? That's the "stomach flu".
Looks like what's going around the Giants (and Texas) is the regular flu - seasonal virus.

I just gotta say that seeing "Barf -- Magic Brightness" on the side of that bus makes getting sick totally worthwhile.

If I use my barf will my clothes be filled with Magic Brighness?

I take it you've never had a dose of food poisoning from oysters, Brendan.

It hits you pretty much exactly the same as how you're describing this virus - only you get it going both directions at once.

Na'fun, to be sure.

@6 - well, no, but nobody's going to want to sit next to you on the bus, and ECB will write something scathing about it ...

In fact, Mr. Comte, I HAVE had food poisoning from an oyster. It was the longest 48 hours of my life. Still—the oysters have been unjustly accused and deserve a public exoneration.

LMAO! Barf magic brightness, that's funny.
I crapped magic brightness Sunday after drinking some pot chai tea Sat night. Well, magic green-ness anyway.
