The most important thing about ants you have to known is that they are, in fact, ants.

Also you can keep them. Keep calm and keep ants. Wherever you are.

ants can be warriors, rangers, rogues or wizards

they get a +1 to strength and a -1 to wisdom

this is in no way a racist way to run a game world

This audience is a fan of ant puns, whenever I tell them some, they start moving quickly and moving brood around as a common ant party gesture.

Resting Lich Face: This case of an intraperitoneal zucchini is unusual, and does raise questions as to how hard one has to push a blunt vegetable to perforate the rectum.

Got my flu shot today.

Considering my deathly fear of needles (irrational, and I know it) this is a big deal.

Oh thank you, finally someone figured out their names! They were getting mad that no one could remember them properly, especially benny, but, you know.

One of my bffs and i once went to do a flu shot immune response study when we were students, for booze money of course

They drew about 50 mL of blood which is basically nothing, but he went into needle shock about 3 minutes after being stuck and passed out face first onto the floor and broke two teeth

Always stay in the chair for 5 minutes folks

I ran and hid from a shot when I was like 14. Way too old for that poo poo.

Considering my need for blood testing on occasion, and several cases of the flu (which hella suck) I got around to getting my flu shots again but it's never easy to stave off panic with discipline.

It was administered by a pharmacist this time and she just wasn't as good as a nurse. Slow, and didnt let me get a clear view. It might sound weird but I have to watch it or I tense up way more. Maybe it's a control thing? I don't know it's useless trying to rationalize something like a phobia.

I had a couple of ingrown toenails a few years back when I was teaching English in rural Japan. My classes on average had around 5 kids and that was with combined grades in elementary school so all of the kids in the village knew me. I was such a baby about the shot of anesthesia I was laying back and I put my arm over my eyes, broke into a cold, clammy sweat, and screamed.

As I was leaving the examination room in the tiny local clinic I saw one of my kindergarten students in the waiting room basically right outside the door and just felt incredibly guilty. A kid that age is probably already a little anxious about the doctor without me screaming behind a closed door.

After dealing with an ingrown toenail for like 2 years before I finally got it surgically fixed, I'm very careful not to get another

when i was 7 I got hit by a volvo doing about 50 miles an hour. i was really lucky cause it hit me in the hip so I slipped up onto the bonnet (putting a dent into it with my face) then spun off it at high speed rather than going over or under the car or through the windscreen.

basically got the worst road rash over most my body from head to toe including my face (but fortunately not the junk) but ended up with no serious injuries or broken bones - was in the midst of walking on home after picking myself up out of the gutter when adults who freaked out at seeing my covered in blood made me wait for an ambulance

was also bloody lucky that it wasn't a coal truck cause this was back in newcastle and that particular road tended to get them going down there all day

getting debrided all over was not fun but fortunately must have a high tolerance for these things cause didn't pass out or anything. don't mind needles really either which has been good cause it makes it easier to give blood - they have a place next to my nearest motor registry so gives you something to do while waiting forever to get your license renewed or whatever
