Turns out I'm allergic to garlic
Added 2017-09-12 01:39:10 +0000 UTCNo daily sketch today. I'm trying to work on something but I can only do so for about one-minute spurts. I don't eat garlic. It gives me diarrhea. I didn't think there would be any problem with me cutting a few pounds of it up though (a friend is doing a thing). As I was cutting the garlic my fingers started to hurt. I thought nothing of it until I was done and I went to wash my hands. Then the burning started. A deep, slow, hot burn. My fingers feel like they're covered in poison ivy. I hope it wears off soon. I've got a bucket of ice water by my desk and I'm dunking my hands every minute or so since that stops the burning. I didn't think that something like this was real.

Garlic? That sucks. But interesting, maybe you should check the family tree to ensure theres no romanian blood in you ;)

2017-09-13 00:24:53 +0000 UTCIt sounds like a histamine reaction, and 1-2 benedryl (antihistamines) will knock it out usually. If your throats starts to feel swollen head to an emergency room

2017-09-12 14:30:29 +0000 UTCI had a similar experience with Mango. Only I also ate some as well and my entire body from head to toe broke out in hives.

2017-09-12 09:13:50 +0000 UTCThis is the first time it's happened. I've never chopped up this much garlic before. It's already gone down though. The pain only lasted about three hours.
2017-09-12 07:33:04 +0000 UTCDoes putting lotions or creams on your hands help. Have you tried milk or yogurt?

2017-09-12 07:24:02 +0000 UTCNow it all makes sense why you do barbarian and fantasy stuff...you experienced all of that first hand because you're a vampire!

2017-09-12 03:26:05 +0000 UTCIt's already gone down. Only lasted like three hours, but damn.
2017-09-12 03:25:34 +0000 UTCFeel better man. I know what it's like to be allergic to something. I gotta wear a doctors mask every time I mow the lawn or I can't breath. I tried meds but they tend to make it worse.

2017-09-12 03:09:29 +0000 UTCIf you got any Benadryl you should probably take some. If it doesn't help with the alergic reaction it will at least knock you out.

2017-09-12 02:22:38 +0000 UTCDamn! I'm sorry to hear it. Hope you don't need to get it checked out.
2017-09-12 02:05:39 +0000 UTCWell, I can still see my ugly reflection and I can't fly, so not yet.
