Yeah, I have Swine Flu. Holy crap. I have never gotting a flu shot in my life, and wouldnt, but this thing is really fucking bad. 103 temp, and a headache so bad I went to the ER and for put on narcotics. So. Get a flu shot. But watch out, theres probably some chem warfare testing or tracking device in there somewhere I guess. This has been a public service announcement brought to you by beer.
-
Fuck, man. That blows!
-
another failure for eitje's fence
-
Last time the flu went through this house, I was the only one who didn't get it. Which left me to clean up all the puke.
-
Which left me to clean up all the puke.
BONUS!
-
I got a flu shot last year and got the flu.
-
Also, I hope you get better. I am thinking about quitting my second job because when you run yourself ragged you tend to be more inclined towards getting sick.
-
Burn, I have been telling my co-workers FOREVER that flu shots are a ploy by the government to inject everybody with sort of kill-switch nano-bots. So if there is ever another civil war, or breakout of mass chaos they push GO and the kill-switches activate, killing whatever percentage of the population has flu shots.

uh-huh

-
So. Get a flu shot.
Federal officials do not want to discourage anyone from getting the shot. But the CDC is only specifically recommending vaccinations for people at high risk for complications.
-
I'm not getting the vaccine. I'm pretty sure that I already had swine flu or some kind of flu back in May (when I called Luke & Dave to ask them if I was dying).

You know how they get energy from water going through turbines in dams?
Well you have a little dam inside you, instead of from water it takes the energy from your blood.
-
I haven't had anything resembling flu for at least 20 years. Last year my doctor tried really hard to talk me into getting one of the flu shots. I got a little annoyed at him.
-
Ive never had a flu shot either, and never will. But for those who arent worried about the power of the ole Red White and Blue, this is the one to get.
Today is day 5, and Im feeling better. Drank alot of malt liquor last night, I think thats the key. If you get sick, get drunk. It makes perfect sense... really, it does.
-
I think the school is giving away free shots so what the hell I'll get one. You conspiracy folks are hilarious.
-
Well now that we know you have this supposed disease, I'm afraid I'm going to have to pass on that awesome assfucking I was going to give you. Apologies.
-
A DIOS MIO! POR QUE!!! not fair
-
thats what condoms are for, zooms
feel better, burn
I got the flu shot last year, and got this hilarious 13 day stomach virus
-
I don't do flu shots, or frivolous vaccines like chicken pox...I let my kids become immune to it the old fashioned way.
There is, however, a huge scar on my arm that says I will never get polio.
-
I eat my boogers. It's my own little "flu shots." Proven fact that this hardens your immune system.
-
I'm not going to get the flu shot this year I don't think. I was upset about getting the gardasil shot since it was $300 and I recently learned you have to get it again in 5 years.
-
I heard the FDA is going to suggest boys get a form of the HPV vaccination as well.

Brun- What were your early symptoms? I started feeling sick earlier.
-

Well you have a little dam inside you, instead of from water it takes the energy from your blood.
Good idea, conceptually! Well done!
However, dams are stationary; it's the force of the water flowing through the constrictions of the dam's internals that generates that power.
So, your nanobots would need to be big enough to block off blood vessels, and you'd surely notice that with enough of them. Plus, stuff would get caught (like it does in dams) and there would be an increase in embolisms and heart attacks over the last 20-30 years...
OH MY GOD.

Most people my age/generation haven't been vaccinated for polio so if there is another outbreak we're pretty much screwed. woohoo!

It's not because they eat crap and don't exercise, it's the governments fault!

Well, it's back again, so enjoy! Thank the 3rd world countries who won't let the vaccine be given to their people because they believe in weird shit like AIDS can be cured by raping virgins.

What?? It can't??
I guess I (still) have an STD too then, in that case.

It might if you keep trying...

Oh man, dont start that intelligent design bullshit again...
-
Early symptoms were dry coughing (whuch may have been unrelated, I smoke like a train... on fire.) for a couple days then an immediated fever and flu symptoms. Ache, headache lowgrade fever temp of 100.7. Within 24 hours temp was 103.1. Ive NEVER had a headache with the flu like this one was. Horrible. I was paceing at the ER because it hurt too much to sit still.
Basically, if you have flu symptoms this early in the year its like a 90 percent chance its the swine flu. Lasted about a week but the cough is still around.

The UK now has fluoride in the water.
-
Wow. When did that happen?
-
They started talking about it back in 03, its been in water since 07 i think. It's not the whole country about 15% have it added to the suppy, theres a whole bunch that have it naturally anyway.
oh, and councils can say no to it.
-
no to healthy teeth!
-
Fluoride is not for swallowing, it is for spitting...
Our water does not have fluoride, my dentist said so.
-
you have to get it again in 5 years.
what?? i never heard that.
-
I think they put fluoride in the water in London in the early 80's. I remember hearing something about it turning everyone's teeth yellow. At least that's my excuse.
-
hmm, a vaccine is supposed to be coming out just for H1N1.
Thoughts?
-
Obama is Kenyan and this vaccine is design to bend your minds to his rule
-
That is racist. Black presidents are the most racist thing ever.
-
When I had braces I was told to specifically get a mouthwash with fluoride.
But like Mae said, spitting.

Mello is a racist bitch for painting her living room white.... mostly white

Mello is a racist bitch for wearing white after labor day.... mostly white. I can't wait to see what she wears to her wedding.

You can also pick up a box of 'em at any pharmacy ~ WalGreens's, WalMart, like that ~
as well as gloves, latex free or not.
If you DO need to cough, or sneeze?
Do it into your shirt sleeve ~
less transference, air-borne AND physical contact, between you and everything you've touched, AND between you and everything you're GOING to touch on your way to wash your hands after each sneeze/cough.
Use those anti-bacterial wipes on everything you touch, including drawer handles, light switches, door knobs, EVERYTHING.
Use either anti-bac wipes or gel stuff on your hands, frequently.
Wash your hands, for 15 seconds (sing the A-B-C song ~ that's approximately 15 secs), scrubbing between your fingers, the folds in the knuckles of your fingers, scratch the palm of one hand with the fingernails of the other, to insure THEIR cleanliness, then rinse and dry.
Call my orifice in the morning, and my fee is Chest Shots, from the Males of the forum. (That's right, menfolks ~ tit shots of Y'ALL!)

My thoughts are NO.
Did a whole bunch of people die in the 70's as a result of a swine flu vaccine?
-
There's a vaccine. And it killed something like 600k in america in the 1910's. Then I dont know how many in the 1970's.
-
I think I got it. Thats what I get for making fun of you, Burny.
-
Damn, noone derserves the flu, its nasty, even if it didnt come from pigs or birds or minorities.
And let me clarify my earlier post, the Swine Flu killed those people, not necessarily the vaccine, the way I typed it suggested otherwise...
-
Been feeling like shit all day, had to leave Renn Faire early, slept about 4 hours, woke up and got the chills so bad I couldn't pee straight. 70F and I'm under a pile of blankets. FML
-
I hope you feel better! I don't wish the flu on my own worst enemy.

I found out years ago that the reason I am sick for only a day or 3 at a time, if I get sick, since it's a rarity, is that, with Type "O+" blood, and my specific genetics, or my mass exposure to illness as a medic, I have an enzyme in my blood that makes it too acidic for most bacteria and virii to cultivate ....
They caught this when I was tested many times when I didn't get Strep Throat and everyone around me did ...
They caught it again, in adult life, when I was exposed to TB and I had NO symptomsl EVER ....
-
Get out of my America, Xenomorph!

Let's copulate. With your super human health, and my shitty health, the offspring would have at least normal health. But I don't think one can get pregnant from buttsecks.

His sperm would eat thru your rectum, silly.

Rect'um I dont even KNOW'um.

One of my coworkers just called in saying that her son, 15 years old, was just verified as having the H1N1 virus. He would be in the children's hospital here but there are no beds available.
-
Australia just started its mass vac. 5 million doses have just been sent out and another 15 million are comming.
-
If I get sick I want it to happen before I go to Japan.
-
Gawd what a bunch of pussies. Tell 'em Burny, it ain't that bad...
-
Yeah suck it up. Its the flu. (yes a hell of a flu), but ALL flus are gawdaweful after all, but its still the flu. More contagious maybe. but shit... the world has endured H1N1, what, three times in recorded history? Once in the early 1900's, it killed like a bazillion people. The Cold killed fuckers back then. Then the70's, we THOUGHT it killed folks, but people were offing from AID's, we just didnt know what it was then (thanks hippies). Now? Christ, a man on the moon (allegedly), USSR's gone, Cuba has cell phones, aMERICA has a negro president that no imbred white trash has shot yet, I think we can handle the flu... Again,suck it up. I find out ONE of you cunts gets that damn vaccine (except ferynza, or however you spell that shit, Im drunk) Im over and out... again.
-
Hahahaha you rock.
-
I find out ONE of you cunts gets that damn vaccine (except ferynza, or however you spell that shit, Im drunk) Im over and out... again.
but the lady on the radio told me I needed to go get vaccinated. :(

I got that vac awhile ago. Sorry.
-
Well fuck, ok I lied. NO ONE ELSE! HEAR ME!?!
-
my boyfriend's nephew had the swine flu. at 10 years old he weighs in at around 95 pounds soaking wet. he was out of school for nearly two weeks, but now he's healthy as ever again. in your face, swine flu!
-
Apparently theyre vaccinating the old people, young 'uns and pregnant women here. Doesnt seem right to me but.. that's what i was told.
I wouldnt get the vaccine anyway.
I'm not even getting the HPV one.
-
Yea, don't get the HPV vaccine. If aren't fucking like a crazed rabbit like myself then it is pointless for you. I bet you would get it, then it would wear off after five years, and then you would be sexually active.
-
She would be ostracized from her family for getting either kind of jab.

I have a cough today, which I picked up yesterday. No fever, just chest phlegm.
The phlegm has started to darken this afternoon, going from clear/white to clear/clumpy-yellow. This is not a great sign.
Sasha told me to go to the doctor today, but I'm going to give whatever this is another 24 hours to get its shit packed and move out.
I thought it would be funny to come here and ask Danzig what kind of cough syrup he recommends for me, given these symptoms. :)
-
Avoid guaifenesin-containing cough syrups.
Oh wait,... unless you just want to get better...
-
Luke, I know you, you've already read up on this. It's devastating to some peoples' respiratory.
So... Leave me one of your comps so I don't have to drop $400 on a Lenovo all in one?
-
1) I don't think it's swine flu, this just happened to be the best thread to mention it.
2) what kind of hardware do you need? i reorganized recently and came up with a lot of spare equipment.
3) don't buy lenovo.
a) they're chinese.
b) no matter what IBM computers might have been back in the day, lenovo has tossed that quality out the window.
-
Well since my Vaio is on it's last legs and my Samsung Synchmaster 150MP is getting moved to a wall mount as a TV, I'm pretty much starting from scratch.
I was looking at the Lenovos in a store the other day and they're attractive and they seem to perform well. And they cost less than a laptop.
-
Do you need a laptop, or would a desktop system do? I can just ship you all of the parts for a desktop system, if you want to do that.
I have a lot of spare shit, right now, that's no more than a year or two old.
-
Sasha told me to go to the doctor today, but I'm going to give whatever this is another 24 hours to get its shit packed and move out.
I should have listened to her yesterday and just gone to the doc. I *did* go today, and...
I have a cough today, which I picked up yesterday. No fever, just chest phlegm.
The stuff got more yellowy, but still very liquidy.
The doc said that I have what's called "Walking Pneumonia", or Community-Acquired Pneumonia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Community-acquired_pneumonia), which is probably just a bacterial infection causing some liquid to build up in my lungs. So, I'm on antibiotics until Friday and, if symptoms don't change, the doc said he'll want to do a chest x-ray and, depending on that, maybe hospitalize me.
I've learned my lesson, God. No more old jokes about Zoomie (even though, by all accounts, HE should have gotten pneumonia before ME!).
I thought it would be funny to come here and ask Danzig what kind of cough syrup he recommends for me, given these symptoms. :)
My doctor decided cheratussin was the right way to go!
-
There is also a pneumonia vaccine out.

There is also a pneumonia vaccine out.
only works for some types of pneumonia.

Again,suck it up. I find out ONE of you cunts gets that damn vaccine (except ferynza, or however you spell that shit, Im drunk) Im over and out... again.
I dont have a cunt, I have a penis.
And I'm not getting that vaccine. I'll put my immune system up against pig flu every time, and I will win.
-
Fuckin right.

I've had Walking Pneumonia; 3 days and it was gone completely ....

Not only am I free of the swine flu, but I haven't been sick in a few years, and I haven't had the flu since I was a child. Fuck flu vaccines.

Besides, the HPV would get all jealous ...
-
my beer is better than your beer
Nice. I heard this theme several times tonight. I hear NZ/AU beer tastes like a fine ass, JP beer tastes sweet, and US beer tastes like dirty piss.
Also all of you who have opted not to get the flu vaccine are fools and most of you have no idea how vaccines work. But I'll spare you all the tirade I've been giving my friends who decided not to get it (it was free for us students, so the tirade is very deserved). They're all really sick of my comments in this field.
-
K I got pwned by the kiwi again... Your truth trumps my truth.
I don't understand why you gave up so soon. I would've come up with at least ten more come backs. But you are old so I will just assume you are tired of trying and are ready to die.
-
Perhaps but my dick still gets hard at the drop of a hat so I ain't ready to doe yet...

Absolutely seconded. I actually had a good day. I designed an electric auxiliary propulsion system for one of my boats and studied building a home in WV (yeah I'm kinda still stuck on the place) out of shipping containers and recycled materials.
-
For the last couple of days I have felt drunk even though I haven't had anything to drink. I also have had a stuffy head and a sore throat. Am I getting the flu?

Which means.....? I think I just have allergies. This fucking place!!!!!
-
Am I getting the flu?
Sounds like you have SOME kind of flu.
What the hell does that mean?
It means, your symptoms match those described for people who have the flu. And there's been a lot of people in Austin getting sick recently with a flu that's not swine flu.
Since you're in a thread called "swine flu", and you said "Am I getting *the* flu?", I just wanted to clarify that your symptoms match a normal flu strain, not H1N1 symptoms.
-
I went to the doctor today and told her that I had been feeling run down and had a sore throat and generally felt like shit. She didn't even exam me and asked personal questions about stuff like my life and she said that I haven't been sleeping because of the switch from a graveyard schedule to a more common schedule. She also said that I had a case of being a badass and that it can be exhausting.
-
what a hip doctor. mine just tells me repeatedly that i should be using condoms with my boyfriend even though neither of us are cheaters and we're planning a future together. she says "you never know. aids isn't curable and neither is an unwanted child" (the second part, by the way, is of course a lie. abortion is the $350 cure, and a good belly punch can be free!). what a cunt. she doesn't want me to be happy because she's a miserable bulldyke with sausage fingers. did i mention this is my gyno? sorry, back to you, sasha!
-
Oh well I asked for an HIV test too. It takes a week to get the results. My friends are the ones that tell me I should stop sleeping around with shady people. I don't have to pay them a copay for that guidance.
-
Why would you use condoms in a long term, monogamous relationship?
Next they'll be saying that you should never have sex without a condom and when you're ready to get pregnant you should go get artificially inseminated.
-
Yeah man. Lame.
Condoms are the worst thing ever. The only thing they're even good for is getting strange. Outside that, they're the devil's own creation.
Of course, this is coming from the guy with four children, two miscarriages and one abortion on his resume.
-
Our dick has a womb.
-
I think hip and her boyfriend should use condoms because he already has one baby mama. I have never dated a guy with a kid and I doubt I would, because I would just be wondering why him and the mother aren't together the whole time.
-
it was definitely a morbid fascination of mine for the first few months. when the time felt right, i delved into the subject with him. the lowdown is this: they were married in their mid-twenties, and apparently she bored the fuck out of him by the time they were 31, (my money's on: she stopped putting out!) so he filed for divorce. he tells me he got married too young, before he really knew himself and what he wanted, before he was ready to settle down with one person. he said that the only reason he would never say he'd take it back if he could, is because of his wonderful little boy. he's changed a lot since then, and now wants to be with me and only me.
personal side note: his ex-wife and i are the only women he's ever slept with without condoms. besides, he makes a great-looking kid. i'd say i'm pretty good-looking with good bone structure, and he's absolutely gorgeous, so i'm thinking our kids will be astonishingly adorable. booyah, bitches. i can't wait to make some cute babies!

I dont think I could...
But more because a guy my age who has a kid is so definitely a slut. No ty.
-
I know that there are guys who have had kids with women but I just can't do it! I couldn't see the kid he had with another and think, "wow we could have even better looking kids than that!" I just couldn't! Maybe I'm too selfish.
-
*nods*
-
which of course just heightens the selflessness of hip in taking on some other chick's kid as someone to get to know and possibly to watch grow up rather than just as "some other chick's kid." Good for you katie. I hope all goes well.
-
I was going to make that parallel and commend Kate as well, actually ...
-

Seriously. And not to get all sappy here, but good, caring parents are way more important than blood-related parents. If this kid can have both his parents AND you as influential people in his life, he's got a head start on a lot of kids.
-
all I have to say is that you should both live together for 1 year, with you acting like a step-mum, before you think about getting married or having babies
-
Definitely a good plan. I'd even say 2 years.
-
I couldn't see the kid he had with another and think, "wow we could have even better looking kids than that!"
Wow. Cuz I can totally hear you say that... Of course you're very drunk and laughing hysterically because that's the only point of reference I have for your voice.
-
Definitely a good plan. I'd even say 2 years.
This.
You don't want to find out that you are jealous of the kid or anything like that. Also, you will be helping pay for child support. You need to be ok with that.
-
I was going to make that parallel and commend Kate as well, actually ...
but, INSTEAD, you just nodded.

re: "better looking kid than this"
I'm worried it's not possible. I can honestly tell you all that of the hundreds of little kids i've spent time around, his son is the cutest, most well-behaved, smartest little boy I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. I pray mine come close to that.
re: living together
I know that if/when we take things to a more serious level, it will be unrushed and well-timed. neither of us want to fuck any of this up by being foolish or hotheaded and rush into something before we're both ready. I think in that area, he's more concerned with me being ready, as he has pretty much been there and done that, and wouldn't want me to feel i rushed into marriage before i was ready.
As for child support: We don't have any form of joint finances just yet, but I was just thinking the other day that we will probably set up some sort of slow-growing savings account in both names that we will agree to add to each month...something like that. the child support situation is not at all mine until the day comes when we merge all accounts, which I can only see myself doing if we were to get engaged. so far it has affected me in that he has had X amount less each month to live on, and other than that he knows how I feel about the larger-than-required sum he pays weekly, but the deeper I've fallen in love with both him and his son, I couldn't say I'd want that boy to get a penny less than the current amount. how can you begrudge your child? I'd never expect him to. if it means less money to say, put a down payment on a house or something in the future... Well, it is what it is. Life isn't always ideal. I accept and love him, history and all.

My ex fiance, Russell, got together with this chick with a kid about four months after we finally broke up. I think he did it to make me mad. Anyway, two years later she took off with the kid never to be seen again. They had merged bank accounts and she drained him dry. I would never share my money with another, ever. Money ruins relationships.
-
yeah, i've never been a big fan of the idea of merging finances, but i can't say i don't see myself doing it with someone i deem to be "the one". i plan on almost always working and being as equal as i can be when it comes to contributing fiscally to my family, so it may never be necessary. who knows? despite popular opinion, i've never expected to be a kept woman (though i wouldn't turn the idea away, of course). this guy is such a gem. he'd never screw anyone over, at least not in any way i can see, especially if it was to come down to us breaking up with or without joint accounts. he's logical, hard-working, and the most honest dude ever. if he was to go and break my heart one day (which he won't!), i just know he'd never fuck with me or our shared interests. he's a really good and decent man. he has a very amicable relationship with his ex-wife despite his feelings toward her, in order to always keep the peace for the sake of their son, and has always been kind to her since the divorce, as he has never had any desire to hurt her further than that alone.
i'm sure lots of silly girls in love believe this shit about the object of their affection, but you have to believe in something, right?
-
I just have a "glass is half full" approach to stuff like this. I would never deem anyone "the one" because that always leads to disappointment, and I wouldn't assume that this guy will love me forever.
-
i hope he will, rather than assume he will, just the way i hope i love him forever without eventually getting bored and looking for fulfillment elsewhere/with someone else. i would like to get married and be monogamous, even if i'm not quite sure if it can happen easily, and/or happen happily. my parents are married and crazy about eachother (29 years strong) but they are definitely in the minority.
-
This is why I've never married ...
Well, ALSO why ...
-
My wife and I haven't merged accounts, it works out. We just split the living costs according to our incomes. I pay for more dinners out than she does and we're good. The rest of our money we spend of what we want, and since we're both naturally frugal there's no worry that one side is spending the family dry.

do you think your mom does all kinds of dirty stuff with your dad?
-
of course she does...
thats what long time married folks do, get kinkier, and start swing. Sheesh, dont you know anything???
-
You know nothing about women Luke.
I don't know a millionth of one percent about anything, when it comes down to it.

la la la la la i can't hear you

The only reasonable response.
Luckily I don't have to worry about such things because I'm 99% sure mine was a virgin birth.

Ha ha! Now that's comedy!
-
So, whose parents on here do anal?
I know my mom and her husband do NOT, however, my dad and stepmom MIGHT, but, I doubt it highly ...
Anyone else; anyone; Hip ... ?
-
Neither of my parents are with anyone.
-
Leah's dad told me he fucked her mom on their first date, and she was the best piece of ass he ever had.
I like to remind her of that, it's fun.
-
I can believe that.
-
I think swine flu's a myth.
My friends fucked hundreds of pigs. He's never caught it.
Maybe he uses a condom?
-
Swine flu isn't a STD.
-
No, babies are ...

my parents are just about to celebrate their thirtieth anniversary. they're head over heels for each other; it's disgusting.
they probably do all sorts of gross stuff but they don't do anal. i am not going to relate how i know that but i will share this amusing anecdote.
a few years ago i'm just hanging out with my mom when suddenly she practically shouts, "oh! have you seen that sex video of tommy lee and pamela anderson?" i warily answer that i have, in fact, seen it. she responds with, "i swear, he is like your dad's PENIS TWIN!"
super duper.
-
Haha your mum sounds like my mum. Except my mum's stories are all from back in the day.
-
... which was a Wednesday, or so I've heard

guh. if my mom had said that I'd have to excuse myself from the room then stab myself.

holla we want pre-nup, we want pre-nup!

Like, a written guaranty of size?

Burn, I have been telling my co-workers FOREVER that flu shots are a ploy by the government to inject everybody with sort of kill-switch nano-bots. So if there is ever another civil war, or breakout of mass chaos they push GO and the kill-switches activate, killing whatever percentage of the population has flu shots.
How do they stay powered for such an indefinite amount of time, when your cell phone needs to be recharged weekly?
You know how they get energy from water going through turbines in dams?
Well you have a little dam inside you, instead of from water it takes the energy from your blood.
Good idea, conceptually! Well done!
However, dams are stationary; it's the force of the water flowing through the constrictions of the dam's internals that generates that power.
So, your nanobots would need to be big enough to block off blood vessels, and you'd surely notice that with enough of them. Plus, stuff would get caught (like it does in dams) and there would be an increase in embolisms and heart attacks over the last 20-30 years...
OH MY GOD.
I sort of absentmindedly followed this conversation with a bit of amusement because I'm pretty sure baggies first post was made in jest. But this is not as far fetched as it may sound at first.
We are making great strides in nanotechnology and the idea of micro robots attaching themselves to your nervous system to act as a form of kill switch makes perfect sense.
And you guys have all missed the boat entirely on the power issue. Take for instance RFID chips, they have NO power supply! They are completely inert until you pass a scanner over them. the scanned emits a radio field (generally somewhere in the microwave range) which then powers up the RFID and allows it to transmit it's ID code back to the scanner.
With these kill switch nanobots as originally proposed They could use almost any radio field as a power source (leakage from the home microwave perhaps or some field being generated near the clinic) to reach their programed destinations where they could then lie dormant indefinitely.
In the event of an uprising or other mass disturbance all that would be required it to bathe the crowd in a modulated microwave field. It wouldn't need to be very powerful, the people wouldn't even know they were being attacked. The nanobots could be programed to perform several different functions from paralysis, unconsciousness or death based on the exact coded modulation of the microwave field. And since microwaves can be focused like light they can be shaped into a laser beam (maser) to select a single target among a large crowd, or expanded into a flood light to encompass the entire crowd.
Alternativly using HAARP the signal could be broadcast from Alaska bounced off the ionosphere and beamed back down on entire portions of states anywhere in the US.
Now I'm not trying to encourage baseless crackpot ideas but I thought I should just mention that this scenario is not entirely impossible.

.... annnnnnd
... this is where I stop reading this thread
... it's been fun, guys, and I thank you all!

Phag

i'm still really proud of that post of mine.
i should be working for the gov.
-
I eat my boogers. It's my own little "flu shots." Proven fact that this hardens your immune system.
i just puked in my mouth
:'(
and then i put a bit of the puke into my nostril.

hahahahaha ...
