Because I have a fucking cold and fucking colds are shit.
It's not even like they have a fucking biological purpose - they just turn up, make you feel like shit, and fuck off again. They're crap.

They're like wasps, or something.

badger will probably piss all over this
but I read an article in the paper once that said colds are quite good from time to time, as they give your immune system a kick up the arse. if you never get ill, you might well succumb to something nastier further down the line.

you know what? just reading it back makes it look like bollocks, no idea how someone made an entire article out of it

The forrins have a saying about lots of little illnesses - long happy life, never ill, die in fire or something.
Colds are still crap -they only kill riddlers.

No, I think this is roughly how the immune system works

They serve the basest biological purpose.
Their own survival, proliferation and perpetuation. They are also well fucking good at it. Don't even kill their hosts. Textbook virusing.

If it weren't for colds, Tom Cruise would be the only human left after Martians invade.
We owe them a huge debt.
