Terrible curses we've been having, hm?  I can't say that I disagree with the sentiments of those who have been vandalizing the City lately, but I do wish they would express themselves without defacing the buildings.  I'm thankful that my memories weren't projected onto the network for all to see, however!

I've put together something of a rough guide

This guide seems pretty good to me. Especially the advice on how to be prepared for curses. Seems like a lot of people weren't ready for the beer one. Though it wasn't too bad, for a curse.

Only I don't exactly remember what I said to people on the Network that day or to who.

[somekindofsin]

Oh, thank you! Perhaps I should include a bit on what to avoid doing curses? Many people would do well to avoid the network on curse days.

I'm sure it was nothing too humiliating.

[horrible_phd]

I think that's probably a losing battle. I mean, lots of people end up posting accidentally, anyway, so maybe it's better to post on purpose. Hmm...

In the grand scheme of things here, no, probably not.

[somekindofsin]

True enough. I half suspect the devices have minds of their own sometimes.

Did you experience a hangover? I've heard that they're dreadful.

[horrible_phd]

Yeah...I don't usually drink that much. Spend half the next day feeling like my head was being split open with a jackhammer. Or just any kind of hammer or Hammer.

That doesn't sound terribly pleasant. Is there a remedy for hangovers?

[horrible_phd]

Well, lots of people have remedies they swear by but most of those are pretty disgusting. Really, painkillers and drinking lots of water is the way to go. According to research, the hangover's mostly due to dehydration.

[somekindofsin]

Hm. It shouldn't be difficult to remedy a hangover, if dehydration is the primary cause...

Of course, avoiding alcohol is a fool-proof way to avoid unpleasant side effects!

[horrible_phd]

Supposedly you can avoid getting one by drinking a lot of water while you're drinking alcohol. But that's kind of more difficult when the only thing coming out of the faucet is more green beer. Also surprisingly hard to remember when one is already drunk.

Well, yeah, there is that.

[somekindofsin]

You really shouldn't drink all that much. You'll... pickle your brain, or something.
