kennel cough

Illnesses which are spread around at conventions (Comic-Con, Fur-Con, Bear Run) due to the large numbers of people who gather and interact in one confined place. Lack of sleep, drama, stress, travel, and post con depression may also depress the immune system, contributing to kennel cough.

This is synonymous with "Con Crud" or "Bear Flu".

I had an amazing time at Texas Bear Round-up, but I ended up catching kennel cough.

kennel cough

The cold virus that goes around your school for the first 2 weeks after your students start school. They infect each others and then eventually the teachers as well.

Me: Man, have you got the kennel cough too?
Friend: Yeah, back to school time again. Damn kids.
