Strengthen your armies against me, my time is now here.

I am the enemy you can't see, I'll fill you with fear.



Carried by those careless, ignorant, and weak.

Keep you captive fairless, suffering that's bleak.



Now don't be afraid, I am mostly innocuous.

Except when my past is weighed, I may be the apocalypse.



Suffer yourselves to be pricked, lest I come at you like a swift kick.

So that you may not be picked, when I'm thrown at you like a brick.




What am I?

Are you




Flu Season




Strengthen your armies against me, my time is now here.




Strengthen your immune system.




I am the enemy you can't see, I'll fill you with fear.




Don't get sick.




Carried by those careless, ignorant, and weak.




When those people sneeze without covering their nose.




Keep you captive fairless, suffering that's bleak.




Sniffle-sniffle




Now don't be afraid, I am mostly innocuous.




Maybe a little cold.




Except when my past is weighed, I may be the apocalypse.




Last year 80,000 people died. Horrible.




Suffer yourselves to be pricked, lest I come at you like a swift kick.




The umm flu shot.




So that you may not be picked, when I'm thrown at you like a brick.




You may get sick without the shot but you can still get sick with one.




Title




Time of year = flu season




Acrostic




Sickness.

Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP .everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty margin-bottom:0; up vote 31 down vote favorite 4 I hold a PhD in mechanical engineering with a 7 year background in self-guided, self-paced research including 2 years as a graduate level course instructor and a subject matter expert for various engineering projects in a university setting in the United States.

My supervisor generally gives me about 15-30 minutes to solve it and then accosts me about whether or not the task is completed and then rinses and repeats this until the end of the day.

One-line joke

A one-liner is a joke that is delivered in a single line. A good one-liner is said to be pithy - concise and meaningful. [1] Comedians and actors use this comedic method as part of their act, e.g. Jimmy Carr, Tommy Cooper, Rodney Dangerfield, Norm Macdonald, Ken Dodd, Stewart Francis, Zach Galifianakis, Mitch Hedberg, Anthony Jeselnik, Milton Jones, Shappi Khorsandi, Jay London, Mark Linn-Baker, Demetri Martin, Groucho Marx, Dan Mintz, Emo Philips, Tim Vine, Steven Wright and Henny Youngman and Arnold Schwarzenegger. [ citation needed ] Many fictional characters are also known to deliver one-liners, including James Bond, who usually includes pithy and laconic quips after disposing of a villain. [ citation needed ] Examples "A baby seal walks into a club." "A dyslexic man walks into a bra." (Anonymous) "There are three types of people, those who can count and those who can't." "Venison's dear, isn't it?" (Jimmy Carr) "An escala
