I'm thinking of giving blood.
I know it sounds silly but the adverts on Spotify have actually convinced me a little. Is it as much of a gore fest as some people make out?

It's like watching blood transfusions, only in reverse.
And sometimes somebody faints because they haven't prepared themselves properly.

Who on earth "makes out" that giving blood is a gore fest?
They put a needle in you and take out a measly quantity of blood then give you tea and biscuits. It's hardly Driller Killer. Get to it immediately.
(I helped save b3ta! Dr. Shambolic je suis charlie, Wed 17 Jun 2009, 8:14, archived)
It would be double awesome if it WERE driller killer though.

Oooh, I've missed this.
Top notch Shambolic Derison. I fully expect someone to be crying and the word 'Shambollocks' to be being bitterly bandied about by the end of the day.

in the north we cut our hands off, drip into a bucket and then sellotape our hands back on

oh, oops. sorry.
(I helped save b3ta! manolith hooray for me, Wed 17 Jun 2009, 8:57, archived)
I've given blood a few times (ooh-hoo look at him Mr Lifesaver over here!)
and I once recall someone, clearly not holding the patch on his arm long enough for the bleeding to stop, flexed his arm and promptly sprayed blood all over himself.

no-one can ever find veins in my left arm
i've learned to desperately proffer my right arm before they start prodding about in there.
(I helped save b3ta! sleepybinky, Wed 17 Jun 2009, 8:47, archived)
i get complimented on my veins when i give blood. which is an odd experience.
mine are prominent and my donation is always over quickly.

once the lady told me it was the quickest recorded time that day. so i said 'i'm like bleedy gonzalez'.

went down like a lead balloon. i was so pleased with it too!
(I helped save b3ta! manolith hooray for me, Wed 17 Jun 2009, 8:54, archived)
lolololol I LIKE IT.

(I helped save b3ta! sleepybinky, Wed 17 Jun 2009, 8:59, archived)
But... his name is "speedy gonzalez". Not "bleedy". Maybe that's why she didn't get it.

(I helped save b3ta! Edd: The Unfunny Try-Hard Edgelord, Wed 17 Jun 2009, 9:01, archived)
i made mine leak once
it made a lady faint

obviously, i make ladies swoon all the time but not for that reason
(I helped save b3ta! manolith hooray for me, Wed 17 Jun 2009, 8:52, archived)
Other forms of leakage/seepage?
Phwoar.

it is if they break a needle and have to get the dogs out

Yes.
You know that scene in Nightmare on Elm Street where Johnny Depp gets sucked into the bed and then spat back out like a bloody mess? That's what it's like. Exactly that. I promise. It happened to me once.

I would if I could...
But I've had Dengue Fever and banned from being a donor for life. (I'd given over 30 pints before then and never fainted)
(I helped save b3ta! fagilliD Fuck I'm good!, Wed 17 Jun 2009, 8:21, archived)
This should be the next topic for QOTW.
'I've donated over 30 pints of blood. Have YOU ever donated and organ or bodily fluids?'
(I helped save b3ta! Amorous Badger NAKED BEA ARTHUR PHOTOS 4U, Wed 17 Jun 2009, 8:26, archived)
I have donated ...
A few differing bodily fluids in some surprisingly differing places
(I helped save b3ta! fagilliD Fuck I'm good!, Wed 17 Jun 2009, 8:28, archived)
Not unless you're an IMMENSE pussy
I can't give blood here, as they ban junkies, prostitutes and Brits. CJD my arse. They're missing out on pints and pints of prime Flapjack juice, the snivelling little whiners.

Anyway, go and give blood. Or you're a big nancy.

They're doing it today in Saffron Walden. I might go.

for the free tea and biscuits if nothing else

(I helped save b3ta! manolith hooray for me, Wed 17 Jun 2009, 8:57, archived)
WHAT'S ALL THIS?
Biscuits, you say? What sort?
(I helped save b3ta! Captain Wow currently being a cunt in Infamous, Wed 17 Jun 2009, 8:58, archived)
depends where you go i s'pose
my place has custard creams, bourbons, all sorts
oh and the most recent time... MINI CHEDDARS
(I helped save b3ta! manolith hooray for me, Wed 17 Jun 2009, 8:59, archived)
Mini cheddars are win.

Not sure, I keep having tattoos and piercings so I don't think I'm allowed.
Good morning, /snipe.
(I helped save b3ta! Captain Wow currently being a cunt in Infamous, Wed 17 Jun 2009, 8:47, archived)
i go as often as they allow
it's really easy unless you have a fear of needles or are very slight

it's such an easy way of saving lives. do it do it do it.
(I helped save b3ta! manolith hooray for me, Wed 17 Jun 2009, 8:50, archived)
I'm not sure that's true.
I've heard that most of the blood actually goes to evil wizards.
(MooCow_Byter, Wed 17 Jun 2009, 9:03, archived)
and without it, the evil wizards wouldn't be able to perform their evil spells
and would lose their jobs, become destitute and die in poverty

see, saving lives
(I helped save b3ta! manolith hooray for me, Wed 17 Jun 2009, 9:05, archived)
Oh.
I hadn't thought of it like that, but I suppose it makes sense.

what they do is place you on a sacrificial altar and then slit your throat

Free brew? Free biscuits? NURSES?
What are you waiting for? What are we all waiting for?

hmm, the 'nurses' are usually a bit old and saggy
unless that's how you like 'em? there's no shame it it RR. we understand
