RFC2324 posted:it always feels weird to me because the blood they put back has cooled a little. Getting the big contrast injection they give you before a CT scan is weird, because it feels cold going into your arm, then it makes your groin feel really warm. In fact, they're supposed to warn you before you get it that you will almost certainly feel like you've pissed yourself. The first time I had one, I was in a hospital for extreme abdominal pain and vomiting fluoro green bile, so they rushed a whole bunch of tests. I just assumed in my weakened state that I had actually pissed myself and apologised to the radiologist attending me. She asked what I was apologising for, and I told her I had had an accident, and she said "oh no, it just feels like you wet yourself, that's normal". Medicine is weird. Anyway, that's not funny. https://i.imgur.com/nKGdnNI.mp4 Bless the camera operator that held it on him the entire time.

Stop calling him shirley syscall girl posted:Donating plasma is a hoot because they cycle whole blood into this machine and put it back minus said plasma. You get a little light-headed and just walk to your dealer with $40 like yo I'd have done it years ago but I'm never gonna find my SS card or birth certificate ever again Milo and POTUS has a new favorite as of 04:32 on Jul 2, 2018 |

Facebook Aunt posted:Probably not everywhere, no. In Canada it's illegal to sell blood, so they probably aren't doing it here. In america there are private blood collectors that will pay cash money for blood. Or maybe just plasma? I dunno. Anyway, those for-profit places would presumably have no problem selling blood to a health services company that sells people unnecessary blood transfusions.

You get a little light-headed and just walk to your dealer with $40 like yo I guess California doesn't allow you to sell your blood/plasma so instead of making money off of my meat fluid, I get annoying phone calls every few weeks about my blood because I'm O-, so I'm a universal donor. They also want me to donate a shitload of whole blood and plasma because I'm a big guy with tasty blood apparently but that's like a multi-hour process and I can't take all that time off of work.

Mark Hamill Joker = SNES / Genesis era through modern day ? I also appreciate Angry Birds and CoC being in there so that "true gamers" have something to ridicule opposing generations as being "filthy casuals" Mezzanine has a new favorite as of 14:53 on Jul 2, 2018 |

I had a Vic 20 and a PONG console that required about 20 D batteries for 30 minutes of "fun". For those of you that might not know, the Vic 20 required its OS to be loaded via and external cassette tape machine. And let me tell you about the fun and games had the one time I went for a bike ride (on my Huffy with the skinny tires) and accidently put a data tape in my walkman and had the volume up too high. I am a Primordial Stew gamer

In case anyone doesn't get it, it's a deliberately shallow joke, part of a series that parodies edgy gamer memes with the Joker.

Jerry Cotton posted:No it didn't. I'm an old person with scrambled brains and I swear you had to boot it with a cassette. I might have been wrong about that but that was definitely the external storage device for my basic programs that used to write LOL. It also had a cartridge game called impossible mission that was bugged at the end and wouldn't let you finish the game. It was my first experience with what would come to be Bethesda gaming.

In the early days of my childhood, we had an object called "the computer," it was a TRS 80, and it also used cassettes. I was about 6 years old, and there were no games for it, so I just mashed the keyboard like I saw people do on TV.

I had an Amstrad cpc 464 with one tape with a few games (the Goonies, Short Circuit, Roland ahoy) When I asked my parents for some other games they offered me a book with pages after pages of basic code for simple games. I swear I only have memories of trying to find where were the syntax errors and none of an actual working game I copied from the book. Nice troll mom and dad, nice troll.
