Fastest time to get over a cold. Colds for me only last a few days and I recently got over one in 4. The person I caught it from still has congestion and a cough

[–] 200ok@lemmy.world 2 points 21 hours ago

That's incredible!

When I was young I overcame a cold with fever and all over a single night. I felt invencible. Nowadays I feel like half the year I'm still trailing symptoms of one thing or other.

I could probably set the record for apathy but I probably wouldn't care enough to try...

All of them for a brief time, but then only one: quickest to be dethroned from every single world record.

[–] sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml 13 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I won't be setting any work records lol

[–] 200ok@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Hah! Got 'em

[–] MedicPigBabySaver@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Work records suck.

I'd do something fun. I'd win for most breweries visited. I'm around 600.

Longest company bathroom break

Knot tying. Most half-hitches tied in 60 seconds or fastest time to tie all six of the "scout knots".

I assume 99% don't know them and I am reasonably quick at them, I could hold the record for at least a day or two.

[–] Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 day ago

Knot tying also, but in reference to my bad dragon collection

[–] Blackout@fedia.io 4 points 2 days ago

Downhill bicycle speed record, followed by Most gruesome bicycle accident.

[–] MilitantAtheist@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago
  • Most watery poops
  • Worst at sex
[–] gon@lemm.ee 2 points 2 days ago

Least world records and most ties for a world record.

[–] Witchfire@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Most nails hammered into nose in 1 minute

Still not convinced I can't beat it

[–] tal@lemmy.today 2 points 2 days ago

I mean, probably any of them that I'm able to do at all (e.g. I couldn't take the award for longest cat) seeing as there wouldn't be any records.

[–] Opinionhaver@feddit.uk 2 points 2 days ago

Longest continuous edging streak. Hell, I might already hold that record anyway.

[–] 11111one11111@lemmy.world -1 points 2 days ago

Record for most annoyed by lazy fucking co-workers.
