What is it with rain and colds?
That part I understand, but what's with the common cold knocking someone out cold for a full day--and then they're 100% back in shape the day after? Not like any colds I've ever seen at least
Manga colds
--Never involve sneezing, coughing or snot
--Always involve fever and weakness
--Often involve hospital visits and fever medication
--Are usually fast-onset and end quickly and cleanly once the fever breaks
I have this feeling that sometime way in the past someone translated "24 hour flu" as "cold" and everyone has just followed that original translation ever since . . .
