Top Ten Things You Don't Want to Hear When Recovering From The Flu

"Wanna go to a tractor pull?" (I swear I was asked this today)
There isn't any toilet paper.
What's that green thing on your lip?
The cat threw up on your bed.
"We have a deadline in 3 days..."
"Don't worry, I'm sure your face will go back to normal."
The expiration date was in January... two years ago.
"Sorry about this rush project, it just came across my desk."
Do you think we can set up a meeting for Tuesday?
The garbage is on fire!

Please feel free to add to the list.

hm. i gotta say, this list is lazy an uninspired (except "don't worry, i'm sure your face will go back to normal"). i hate to say that it's not even particularly funny (see last parenthetical reference).

sit up straight and get your bite back!

She's got a really good command of the two worlds we as artists now inhabit: the technical issues of cyberspace in today's market, combined with bottom line issues of artistic judgement. I highly recommend her as a great resource for web design, artistic and gallery management."
