While we are on the subject, I would like to express my true feelings concerning allergies. I hate them with a fiery passion. If I had to choose between suffering from an allergy attack and dying (note: this would be a quick, relatively painless death), I don't know which one I'd pick.
So, basically, my body is just stupid. Allergies occur when your body thinks that something harmless (like pollen, dander, etc.) is a deadly virus that wants to kill you. Your body overreacts and tries to fight off the "deadly virus" but ends up just making you miserable for no apparent reason. Something obviously wasn't thought out very thoroughly.
This is how I envision the whole "virus vs pollen vs stupid immune system" scenario in my head.
