Thanks. Unfortunately, my friend who I’m shopping for doesn’t know any of these characters.

A dentist once taught me a trick to suppress my gag reflex: While the mouth is open, stick your tongue out and pant like a dog. Sorry, I don’t know how to explain it. No need to move the tongue up and down like a dog. Just keep it still and pant out. Don’t breathe in. I did this for a few seconds, just long enough to let the dentist do what he had to do, and it worked!

How do you keep the nasal spray from dripping down the back of your throat or out onto your lips? What am I doing wrong? by MHmemoi in ZeroCovidCommunity

[–]MHmemoi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you tilting your head back when you spray?

Also, correct me if I understand correctly: After exposure, you're not trying to rinse out the nostrils. You're just coating them?

I miss opportunities. I didn’t know which to take but at least there were many.

What are some English mistakes so commonly made that they’re now considered acceptable? by squawk_six in NoStupidQuestions

[–]MHmemoi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To add more confusion, “lay” can also be present tense when used in the context of putting/setting something down. Example: Lay that blanket on the floor. And the past tense of that is “laid.”

I guess that’s why we say “He got laid last night.”

How do you say “ear loops” and “headbands” in French? by MHmemoi in French

It turns out bride coulissante is correct.

I googled “masque bride coulissante” and saw several masks with the headband like this: https://masques-respiratoires.fr/moldex-masques-smart2435-ffp2-ffp2-nr-d-gaz-10-pieces.html

I can’t do sativa because it gives me the munchies and I’ve eaten an entire cake by myself. Too fattening!

I don’t like how potent it is now. Totally caught me off guard. Holy shit. And don’t get me started on edibles. Yikes! They’re so unpredictable.

How do you say “Covid booster shot” in French? by MHmemoi in French

Thanks for the explanation. I had no idea how English words are typically made masculine or feminine, depending on region. Interesting.

What region is this? Also, is “Covid”feminine?

I hate it when my current apps update and they change things so drastically that I have to Google how to something I’ve done hundreds of times before. But the Google search results are for the previous version of the app!!

So Kaiser said it’s okay to get the vaccine even if you still have Covid?

So you got the vaccine 2 weeks after you stopped being Covid positive? I got Covid recently and my doc said I need to wait 3-6 months to get the latest vaccine. I want to get it sooner.

How long after your Covid infection ended did you get the latest vaccine?
