How to artificially induce a runny nose and red eyes?

Eat a bucket of ice!

Dip your finger in some stationery glue (not too much) and into your nose. A student's way to skip class.

Better simulate high blood pressure or a headache.

Smell the washing powder

And I remember this method from my school days: that's how a classmate taught me to dodge PE lessons. Only - correctly: there should be just a little bit of glue, and right before "the performance".

But are you sure you don't want to celebrate the New Year with your colleagues?

You can still look respectable even amidst ladies sparkling with jewels and expensive outfits if your goal is to have a pleasant time rather than making everyone burst with envy. And not to focus on them, but to enjoy yourself. What if the evening is wonderfully organised, and you miss out on a lot?

After all, corporate parties (meeting colleagues in an informal setting)

bring people closer, make them more connected. And if you, giving in to weakness,

skip the party, you'll distance yourself from the team, becoming an outsider.

Perhaps you have something more or less decent to wear, so you don't have to smear glue on your nose but can enjoy the New Year's celebration with everyone?

+ a drop of vodka in each eye. Your headlights will be red and teary for a couple of hours. Then use soothing eye drops.

Oh, the shameless one! What on earth are you trying to teach?!))

Better to put in something to dilate the pupils and laugh inappropriately a couple of times—the effect will be even more impressive :)

Who needs your dress and diamonds anyway! Just go in a business suit and don't sweat it. On topic: boys at school used to eat pencil lead, claiming it guaranteed a fever and red eyes. Though, I'm not sure how much you'd need to eat :))

What does envy or the desire to impress anyone have to do with it? There is a certain dress code, and it's very difficult to feel free and at ease if you're dressed in clothes from a Chinese shop. In the evening after work, you can stay in your ordinary clothes, or if you're meeting someone one-on-one, then you're the queen. But an evening corporate event at a restaurant requires you to dress accordingly. And if that means spending at least a month's salary—money that might need to support not just her but her children as well—then the pleasure from such an "outing" would be highly questionable.

Make a strong salt solution, pour it into a spray bottle like a "Nasal Spray," so you can press the bottle and spray from it. Believe me, you'll have both a runny nose and tears. However, this procedure needs to be repeated periodically. It even worked at the polyclinic to get a sick note. :)))

Absolutely, absolutely!!!! I've done this, it's very convenient. You can also 'add' to it by dripping into the nose from this bottle - since it's a runny nose, you need to put drops in your nose. Guaranteed streaming snot, sneezing, and red eyes. And for the eyes, you can sleep with mascara on at night - they'll be red too. And eat herring before bed - on top of everything else, your face will be a bit puffy. And good luck to you in the new year, so you don't have such problems and can afford the very best dress!!!!!

Once again, I've picked up something bad from Wumao.
I've noted everything down.
Just in case.

There may also be psychological reasons why the author doesn't want to go. Perhaps a colleague is unpleasant, maybe something about their work status is unsatisfactory, and they lack the energy or desire to pretend "everyone's happy, everyone's laughing"—there's enough interaction with married women at work without having to feel their own disadvantage in the evening as well. Perhaps this woman is no longer in her twenties, and feminine beauty at a certain age requires an appropriate setting. And if she's already been labelled an "outsider," do you think she'd want to go? Just don't advise her that she'll meet "her destiny" there. That's definitely nonsense.

Author, apply a spoonful of mustard or "Star Balm" under your eyes and in your nose!

If we're on the subject, red pepper helps too. But honestly, it would be great if you went there and didn't care about what others are wearing; it's not about the clothes but your confidence that you're the best, even in a T-shirt and ripped jeans. And then you'll be the queen, speaking from personal experience.

Kids, take notes, take notes!

You need to get better!)))

Author, just go as you are, don't stress. At the corporate party, you'll have a drink, and your ladies in diamonds will too, and everyone will become equal, you'll see.

How many useful tips there are!!!!!!!!!!

Sniff some dry mustard.

[quote="Granny Yaga"]Author, just go as you are, don't stress. At the corporate party, you'll have a drink, and those aunties of yours in diamonds will too, and everyone will become equal, you'll see.

At first, everyone will be looking around, but if I were in your place, I definitely wouldn't pay any attention to those posh aunties with diamonds.

What these aunties will never have is your youth.

And what makes you assume that the author is young, and that the women in diamonds are actually 'aunties'??? Perhaps it's the opposite—she is the 'auntie' whose youth and prime were stolen by perestroika, while the young ones are in diamonds because 'they deserve it,' as the advertisement says? And a woman nearing 40 has no desire to endure this humiliation on New Year's Eve, pretending to be happy in a 'made in China' dress???

But at our corporate party, no one is exactly sparkling with diamonds.

On the contrary, no one even wears decent fur coats.

Our company is all wrong.

I really need this! ) Can you tell me what exactly dilates the pupils?

How spiteful all of you are here! Author, eat a kilo of ice cream. You'll get pleasure and catch a cold (and maybe more than just a cold), and you'll miss the corporate event. Instead, they suggest laundry powder and mustard! Go ahead and take a whiff of that filth yourselves.

Atropine, scopolamine, homatropine, adrenaline - Yandex to the rescue.

We're preparing something tasty that includes onions. Then you can fry them together with carrots and add them wherever needed—there are plenty of recipes. And we'll time it so that these people see you right after chopping the onions! :)))

And if no one sees you, you can just fake a sick voice over the phone and say—so and so, I'm ill, I won't make it!

As an alternative, the author suggests inserting a clove of garlic into the anal cavity. This will result in a high fever, malaise, and generally symptoms of fever if done properly. Our forensic medicine lecturer told us about this. Although it's easier to just claim a headache. All you need to do is put on a pained expression.

In my humble opinion, the most sensible thing is to plead a headache. But personally, whenever I had to "go out into society" where there would be wealthy little dolls, I tried to dress more originally. More often than not, it turned out exactly as I needed: in the sense that I was the centre of male and female attention, while they were adjusting their designer labels and diamonds in the bathroom...

Then you could end up in the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate :o)

pardon - GNK:o)

Oh... someone's drifted in from another topic :o)

I don't know how the saline solution helps you. It has the opposite effect on me. I sometimes get sinusitis and rinse with it—it's the only thing that relieves my runny nose and inflammation! But if I add a bit more salt, I get a terrible burn on my mucous membrane—no runny nose, just everything burning and hurting. My eyes don't turn red at all.

I'd rather dab a very weak solution of red pepper tincture on the tear gland—swollen red eyes are guaranteed. Once, I took out my contact lenses after using such a tincture and looked like a very sick person for several hours afterwards. And glue in the nose to sniffle.

Actually, I have the same problem—I really don't want to go to the corporate event. But for a different reason: I find it boring there.

Author. You can induce these symptoms by spraying a pepper spray (Shock will do) from a distance of 1 meter and inhaling... If you spray it on yourself, that would be overkill! But this way... and even then, be careful. Actually, why simulate anything at all—just call and say: I'm ill...

I went to that corporate party. In the grand scheme of things, it probably doesn't matter what you wear—whether in diamonds and mink or silver and tinsel decorations. But the younger odalisques are chosen, and those in diamonds are particularly in demand. Do you think it's pleasant to sit alone on a little sofa and watch the "chosen ones"? I get enough of this loneliness and disdain in both life and at work... Maybe I was right not to have gone there?

I'm sorry, Guest, but if you didn't want to go so much, who forced you? You only went because of the opinions of all those people mentioned above (no offense). Do you not have your own opinion? You've only needlessly spoiled your own mood.

cool

Cool

Folks, how do you make this very salt solution??? At least tell me the proportions, pleeease))

I want to smell the laundry detergent.

Take a sniff)

I just inhaled some pepper right outside the hospital. At first, the sensations were strange, then my nose started running, but it didn't last long.

Wow! So the problem turns out to be an age-old one :) I'll be trying out the recipes from here now. Honestly, it's amusing when people suggest just going and enjoying yourself and start philosophising about psychology)) Folks! Seriously, it does happen that you don't want to see your colleagues, or find them boring, or you really don't feel like singing/reading poetry/jumping in sacks at all and generally begrudge the time for such nonsense, but unfortunately you can't always refuse outright, because it's during work hours((

I rubbed my eyes with soap, for example.

But that's really for the maniacs)

Tropicamide!

I really, really needed to get sick somehow. I prepared for four days: drinking cold water and eating ice cream outside. After a shower, I sat by an open window (it was February, by the way), went out to walk the dog with wet hair. I rode in a cold car. And what do you think? My immune system, damn it, didn't let me catch any cold!

I ended up having to go on an unnecessary business trip.

Now I'll try glue..............................................................

The simplest way to get red eyes is just to rub them hard, but ONLY WITH CLEAN HANDS, otherwise you might introduce some infection. And to make them look teary, just drip some water into them. Sometimes mine also water when I pluck my eyebrows)))
