Only Person Ever to Have a Cold

WELL, IT’S NOT COVID OR FLU. PROBABLY ONE OF THE OTHER VIRUSES. UGH!! THERE’S NOT MUCH YOU CAN DO TO SPEED UP RECOVERY OTHER THAN REST, HYDRATE, AND WHINE AND COMPLAIN AND BE A GIGANTIC BABY ABOUT IT. WHINE AND COMPLAIN? YEAH. YOU NEED TO ACT LIKE YOU’RE THE FIRST PERSON EVER TO HAVE A COLD. ARE YOU SURE THAT’S WHAT SHE SAID? UNBELIEVABLE. HERE I AM, THE ONLY PERSON EVER TO FEEL BAD, AND YOU’RE DOUBTING ME?

A four-panel comic shows a person consulting a doctor about feeling sick, then dramatically lying on a couch while complaining that they are the only person ever to feel bad. The joke exaggerates everyday cold symptoms and mockingly portrays someone who wants sympathy and attention.
