Folks did put LSD on sugar cubes, they may still do it.

The very first polio vaccines were shots.  My mom was scared to death of polio.  I do recall getting the cube a year or so later.

Either I'm tougher now, I dunno, but shots today don't hurt very much at all.  The needles may be finer.

Dont know anything bout that

I still remember getting that sugar cube at the doctor's office

quite a surprise when I thought I was going to get a shot

I remember thinking man this was way better then getting a shot why cant they do this for everything
I asked this at one point to a medical professional (it might've been about drugs, can't remember) and the thing was that if you eat something, it's much harder to tell how much of the dose actually gets through. Your digestive track has more barriers and such, hard to tell how much gets where it needs to.

Just had that a couple of months ago. Was not a big deal at all.

I got stung by a stingray in the summer of 2019 and had to get the TDAP afterward.  I don't recall it being all that bad.

The stingray itself, on the other hand... wow.

Yeah, I have always had a bad reaction to it.  It hurts, and I bruise badly from it.  When I got my pre-K booster, I ripped my leg away as they were doing it, and it dragged through.  No bueno

Having grown up in Galveston I had my share of stingray run ins

A stingray stick is one of the most painful things I ever felt

sure makes you shuffle your feet when wading

They won't let me give blood anymore. The burnt orange color scares the hell out of the doctors.

Our digestive system is a major chemical factory, the stomach of course is acidic enough to denature protein, and other stuff, and then the small intestine is slightly alkaline, which is quite a trick.  Animals basically are a digestive tube surrounded by ancillary stuff.

No kidding.  I've been up and down the Texas coast (and other beaches around the country and world) my entire life, and never had it happen before.

This was in Port Aransas back in August 2019.  We went back to the exact same spot last month, and you better believe I shuffled my feet religiously.

BTW they don't do the sugar cube thing for polio now. It's just a shot.

Have the 2 EE's on here heard that the CDC model thinks up to 100,000,000 US citizens have had Covid, TWICE?

nothing quite like wading in 3 feet of water shuffling your feet and all of a sudden the water just boils up in front of you and you know you dodged another bullet

and its not the big ones that are the danger its the smaller ones
