Man Flu
Man Flu
"Man flu" is a term used to chide men who are suspected of exaggerating their symptoms when sick from a cold or other minor illness.

.................. sure hope it doesn't infect this place!

Oh ...Cosmic, cosmic...cosmic...cosmic, sneeze, hack, wheeze!
Can't you read the thread title me old China?
Yeah?...Then what does it say?
Yes!... that's right it says 'WORD' of the day, and Man Flu (if I'm not mistaken) is 2 words. So I have deduced that you just don't have the sense and sensibilities to calculate the differences betwixt the singular and the plural. Dear oh-deary me.

LolWell Gypsy, that's a technicality, language is a thing that evolves, it's not stationary, like take for example the word 'motherf8cker' or 'cocks8cker', 1 word now but at 1 time, 2 words.
........... and by the way, how are you feeling, (sneeze, hack, wheeze), you seem to be a lil chocked up there.
................... if it's the dreaded manflu you've got I highly recommend a big box of tissues, a bottle of expectorant, and a full-body purge, just get it out of your system.
I'mma send you a get well card and a hot water bottle right now!
Manflu is nothing to laugh at son, it's real, it's contagious and spreading around like wildfire, in fact, you could already be an unsuspecting victim.
SAPAJOU (French)
