    LPT: using a small vibrator on your sinuses can also help. It loosens the mucus up like shaking ketchup in a bottle.

    There’s this old Finnish saying: “Nuha lähtee nussimalla” which translates roughly to “Fucking gets rid of flu”. Guess there’s some truth to that, then.

      Orgasm via zebra stampede was not tested in the study, therefore it cannot be asserted that this method has the same result.

      Is that to be understood verbatim, or is it a euphemism for something?

    Why not write orgasm relieves sinus congestion? Do we need to codify how orgasm arrives? What about a stampede of angry zebras? That usually does the trick for me

      Wet dreams? Though when I’m sick, congestion seems to disappear when I sleep (only to return after I wake up.) So if that’s normal and if wet dreams have some kind of decongestant property, we may never know.

    (He walks in, wearing an un-flattering speedo)
    “Hey, babe. You ready for a good time?”
    “Oh. God. Honey…please, not now, I have a splitting headache. I’ve had this stuffed up nose and it feels like I haven’t been getting enough air all day.”

      People on the internet have lead me to believe that you can meditate yourself into a hands free orgasm but i personally can’t be bothered to find out if that’s real. Who knows, maybe it wouldn’t even work for me.

    I thought everybody knew this…

    though it has a 50% chance of increasing your sinus pressure and make it feel like the only way to release the pressure is by scooping your brains out of your eye socket with a spoon.
