Young labs have endless amounts of energy. My brother has one and we ran that dog outside for hours over Christmas and he wanted more.

I know they went to private schools in the past because he would complain about them running fundraisers which I agree with.

He qualified it and said its a good one though. I guess in Cali you can just pick what school your kids go to? I know we dont get to pick the school here in MN.

Does anyone else find Jo Koy and Adam's "Improv" to be insanely unfunny? "Black Lab" was mildly amusing the first time but the rest of it just goes way the hell too long. Also, according to Neal Brennan, Jo Koy is a dick.

Joy Koys black guy persona is insanely unfunny. I wish he would just talk to comics instead of rehashing the same poo poo voices they did the last time in. Big momma got it goin on belongs in this category too. The bit him and Koy did about the cops collecting money and not chasing bank robbers was pretty good.

Adam will come across a funny bit and then just run it into the loving ground every time that guest is on. DAG's Teddy Pendergrass, Steve Austin's PSAs, Jay Mohr's Big Momma Got It All, Jo Koy's Bung Lu Su/Black Lab/Brown Sugar. I bet DAG quit coming on the show because he got sick of doing the same bit over and over again.

Is Brian still completely insufferable and comfortably inside Adam's rear end on the show? I listen to Film Vault and Brian was talking about how one of Adam's employees had to Uber to pay for his wedding after working for Adam for years and he said it without a tinge of irony.

Well weddings can be EXTREMELY expensive, and Im not sure Chris HAS to work for Uber to pay for his wedding, but some extra money is always good. As far as I know hes been Ubering for quite a while, and I dont think he started doing it just for his wedding. Besides realistically what do you think these guys deserve to get paid for working for Adam, plus they live in California which has almost the highest cost of living in the country.

I think it was actually Matt that Brian was talking about. Anyway, yeah, I didn't really think it through that day to day to life is one thing but most incomes could not handle a wedding. I guess I'm just adding that to the rest of what I've heard along the years listening to the podcast that gives me the impression they get paid a pittance, guess they could always leave but I don't know how many podcast producer jobs there are out there. I also just think Adam is rich enough to pay his employees more for dealing with his bullshit, but I'm way left of him and he can do what he wants and it's up to them to take it, since they don't seem to mind.

I'm not allowed to give blood due to being in the United Kingdom for a short period in the 80s. It's completely reasonable that you can't give blood if you're gay or a past IV drug user. All that extra special screening adds cost. EDIT: I use propecia, just found out I cannot give blood unless I stop for at least a month hiddenmovement fucked around with this message at 14:47 on Jun 16, 2016 |

(Aids duh) The gay blood ban is really dumb because if you're in a monogamous relationship for many years, it's not like AIDS will suddenly pop up in your blood because you're gay. Also the gay blood ban is dumb because you could easily lie and just say you've never had gay sex and donate anyway, which is why they test all donated blood.

Statistically speaking and in a world where tests aren't perfect / everything is a numbers game anyway, the gay* blood ban/deferrals make a ton of sense. This isn't stuff coming from bible bumper land, it's from the CDC/FDA. If people lie because they're dying to donate their blood then fine, unless everyone is doing that in practice (which they aren't) then it's neither here nor there. It won't be around forever, in any case. *not just "gay", forget details but male on male sexual contact or something

Apparently it's more cost efficient this way, but they need to do pre-screening to keep the # of failed batches lower.

I don't think this is true, both my state's blood center and the American Red Cross specifically state they test each received unit of blood individually.

Also, it's not like that is the only group that is denied. People who have traveled to certain countries recently, British expats, people that have gotten a tattoo in the last year, people that use or consort with drug users, and I think I might even be forgetting one or two more groups on the questionnaire.

Thelonius Van Funk posted:I mean it is pretty dumb that gay people can't give blood at all because it's not like they just shove the blood right into someone else without testing it first anyway The actual reason for the blanket ban (and this is from my personal experience working in a blood bank), is due to the sheer volume of samples that are tested. They don't test everybody's blood individually, the samples get pooled. They may mix 10, 20, even 100 samples together in one big batch, and then test that. The tests are sensitive enough that it doesn't matter. Now the problem is if that batch comes up as reactive for HIV, the lab will not then test each sample individually to see who was reactive and who wasn't. Every person in that batch will simply be rejected and their blood will never be accepted for donation again. Its just more cost effective. This is contrary to the way testing is done for say organ donation, where samples are tested individually, or if they are batched they are later separated to see who exactly was reactive for XYZ.

I think I remember seeing (here in Aus) that you may also be excluded if you in the last x months had sex with a sub saharan African, which stuck in my mind because my partner is Zambian. Obviously due to the massive AIDS problem in that part of the world.

Blood banks can only test for viruses there are well established assays for. When new poo poo mutates and emanates out of a community (like AIDS did) then you can end up with contamination.
