Description (to be Scrapped later, eh.)

I have an ongoing epic cold with inevitable irritated red nose. And since in France one usually greets friends with the ''bise'', cheek-kissing, I have been warning people off because germs - and I was struck by the pretentious Poe/Phantom shout-out.

#overdramatic ? #moi ?

There's nothing worse than a blocked nose. You can't taste food, have trouble sleeping andΒ everything seems more difficult.

Look for medicated blistex(any medicated chapstic realy). if you apply it liberally to your nose before bed you will be completely healed by morning. <3 get well soon.

drink some hotΒ  tea and also place a small pot of water on your stove and let it boil, the steam will help with your nose and will start to clear it

Actually, I was referring to the popular meme with a picture of a tiny bat being petted by a single finger and the above caption.

What she says is closer to: "Don't touch me! I am the Red Death passing by!" (Red Death being the character whom the Phantom of the Opera dressed up as for the masquerade scene in the play.)

GothicBlackAngel In reply to EricaXchan [2014-12-06 17:39:06 +0000 UTC]

That wasn't a translation. It says "Don't touch me! I am the Red Death (coming through)" I don't think that last bit would actually be used in English.... My French is a bit rusty though.

Pika-la-Cynique In reply to GothicBlackAngel [2014-12-06 19:05:59 +0000 UTC]

I believe the habitual translation is along the lines of ''Do not touch me, for I am [the] Red Death stalking abroad''.
