The Worst Causes For Headaches
Post: 1
Posted Jul 2, 1999 by Monkeys
After being plagued by a swine of a headache for the past day & a half (no I wasn't on the sauce) it got me wondering what the hell caused the blasted thing in the first place.

I for one am placing the blame squarely on very white clouds.

Probably some sort of meterological hooha behind it but I just know them buggers are to blame.

I remember now why I posted this in the 'Scrambled Eggs' thread.

I found the best in The cuillin Hills Hotel in Portree in on the Isle of Skye.

But that familiar aroma of hotel lobbies also give me a headache.

I find the worst cause of headaches is the sun. It makes me squint because it hurts my eyes, then I get a headache. Since it has been very sunny recently (for a change) I have been wearing sunglasses all the time.

Banging my head repeatedly against a brick wall does it for me. It's great when you stop, though.

Of course, the sun-glasses themselves could be the cause of your headaches. I once saw a movie where a guy with sunglasses got shot in the head.

I mean, the guy in the film didn't have a headache because he was dead. But, if he had survived he would have had a sticking headache.
An absolute belter!
He may even have had a headache before he was shot.
It may even have led to him being shot!

He may have been shot by a guy with a headache who was so agonised he tried to

-a- shoot himself to end the pain, the godforsaken pain aaarrrgghh
-b- shoot who he actually did shoot (our original deadguy) for his sunglasses because the sun made him squint, the godforsaken squint aaarrgghh

OR maybe he
-c- was a s*****c who had laid his hands on a gun, his godforsaken s*****c hands run for your lives aarrgghhh

Who can say, really

I think we may have something with this sunglasses thing here.

Maybe hangovers are caused by the sunglasses as well. Every time I'm wearing them I get a thunderous headache which would spook the bejesus out of anyone.

In fact on TV right now someone wearing sunglasses just got hit by a fryingpan. Spooky, as I type and everything.

Maybe we are all being targeted.

Maybe the frying pan and sunglasses were working together.

I know it is probably heresy to say this, but my computer can often be the worst cause of a headache for me. I have also noticed that the problem is a damn sight worse when I wear sunglasses while viewing the screen. I don't understand this as they are prescription sunglasses and everything, but perhaps the sunglasses and the frying pan are being controlled by the computer.
It is a tad worrying and I've just had a worse thought!
If they are being controlled by the computer and it is trying to take over my brain, thus causing the headache, how can I be sure that the messages about worst causes for headaches come from other people and not other computers!
Perhaps snail mail was better - I couldn't imagine a stamp trying to take over somebody's head and giving them a headache. They just tried to take over the human race by giving every pen pal tongue cancer!

Pain in the neck

Wearing a paper bag over my head seems to ward off all but migraine headaches. Not being able to see can be a bit of a pain in the neck though.

If you think it is bad with the sunglasses/computer conspiracy, think yourself lucky you're not at the VR Glasses stage. A blatent conspiracy if ever I saw one.

Ah yes, but VR glasses controllled by computers are the Human Hell of Ignorance of course.
Think of what it must be like to have a gisnt sun projected on your VR glasses by the conrolling computer just to perster you, and you not being able to wear sunglasses because the damn VRglasses are in the way.

Of course, then you'd have to be a complete and utter moron, because taking off the VRglasses shouldn't require too much IQ, and you didn't even think of that... hypothetically.

I have a friend who used to work for Calvin Klein - In the dept. which made their sun-glasses. I'm sure he used to make the coffee or something, though he swore blind that he was in-fact a very big fish in marketing.<p>

Anyway - the one thing that was for certain was that he could drink like a fish, more like a whale actually. The point of all this is that he once told me that after years of secret, high level research, Calvin Klein had treated all their sun-glasses to filter out computer emissions caused by several new forms of computer viruses that only Calvin Klein seemed to know anything about. He then added coyly, "Just who wears sun-glasses when using computers anyway?". He was wankered on a bottle of vodka at the time, and the only words that I could catagorically swear to hearing were "sun-glasses", "filter" and "computer emissions" - But the point remains.<p>

He sent me a postcard shortly afterwards saying that he had moved to Atlantis to escape the darkmen. I never heard from him after that.<p>

I went past his old house yesterday and found that it had been replaced by a small field with an apple tree in the centre of it.

Dig under the roots of that apple tree and what will you find?
A pair of petrified calvin klein sunglasses and a fossilised frying pan connected via reverse temporal networking to the lost continent of Mu-Mu. This whole thing's starting to scare me.

Eggs are not the only things scrambled in this forum. At least no one has mentioned llamas.
