Apparently I've been using nasal spray wrong too. Drat.

Ditto, but now I know!

Same, I'm very excited to put this new knowledge into effect

Lots of covid tests have sort of told me that nostrils go straight back, but I still never articulated it this clearly. Thank you for your insight - and for the duvet cover trick, though I lack corner loops (is it a US thing??) so I'm not sure it applies as well.

Also if you may I will definitely be stealing that "Disclaimer: it is possible that everyone else finds this obvious and I am merely a dumbass". It made me laugh a lot. It's a bit of a self-critical version of the "lucky 10000" xkcd thing :')

Ooh topology! Queen size is too much. I usually do it from inside the cover with the help of my cats.

(They are not really helping)

The nose thing feels super obvious in retrospect but I did not realize that before reading this.

Also found out #1 recently, improved my existence but troubled my soul tbh. Why are nostrils like that

oh my goodness this is going to change the way i use nasal spray, praise be upon you!! either more people have this problem than i thought or we’re just all dumbasses, who knows.

also every single one of those thoughts when lying awake at night is so incredibly real.

Why does Ryaltris have to taste SO bad? Why can’t science fix this!! Also those loops sound genius. Wish my duvet covers had them! Maybe I will sew some on…

Another thing that helped me with nasal spray was getting the gel kind that doesn't drip. Amazing stuff.

OMFG! Having an Australian Shepherd that sleeps on my bed, the duvet cover thing may change my life.
