A rather late in the week thread for discussing the wild, whacky and utterly mundane of life in our isolated corner of the planet.

Ah small wins, they're the best to take a quiet pleasure with.

But, ugh! Needles, i hate those fuckers, i'd rather vaccines be delivered by means of punch to the face!

At least thats if we're talking the subdermal type, but if we're talking knitting needles, i got no beef.

I reread it, you're talking the bad type... ugh! I'm glad you've found a comfy type again. Although i cannot believe there is any such needle.

Isn't there a use by on those things? I'd imagine the tips could become rusty over time.

In this case it's insulin which means they are at least extremely small in length.

Mostly you barely notice then sometimes you forget to rotate injection site and jab into a bruise.

Think there is a use by, but they're sealed and still comfy so I'd rather they didn't go to waste.

Oh yeah, i suppose theres gradients of how bad needles can be. I remember a scan where they injected ink into me, that was horrible. I could feel the difference in temperature as it spread through my body.

Yeah, contrast traces aren't on the nice end of the spectrum.

I hate the metallic taste.

Can assure you that insulin shots are like mosquito bites in comparison ๐Ÿ˜„
