Try to say regular names with a bunch of Oreos in your mouth!

Examples:  Jocelyn = Jorslun.  Elizabeth = Lisbit.  Daniel = Dannel.

You’re welcome.

Following up on this idea.  I tried this method with a hamburger in my mouth, in lieu of Oreos. Results:

Alice = Allit.   Mark = Marth.  Tommy = Domi.

Confirmed: a mouth full of President Choice White Mac and Cheese  produces a subset of names with a more badass tilt to them.  

Examples: Chris = Rith.  Brittany = Brickney.  Megan = Mayhem. 

I JUST CACKLED OUT LOUD IN PUBLIC

This is an amazing tool.

#Star Trek #DS9 #(didn’t they actually play hide and seek with Odo once though?) #(he played a Founder in a Dominion invasion drill?) #(but that’s not nearly as funny)

Holy shit, somebody’s selling a Boolean.

I am so not ready, but on the other hand it’s nice to see a demonstration that it’s still possible for a Boolean to change hands every once in a while.

It’s been a year and a half since the last sale. If the next is a year and a half from now, I might very well be a contender for it by then.

(@sinesalvatorem, apparently when I was telling you about how borderline mythical Booleans are, I was speaking of the devil.)

have we ever met someone who is eligible to donate blood

are we sure theyre real

blood donations are fake

I know some rat-adj people who can donate blood, but I don’t want to out them as total squares.

My life is *extremely* boring blood-donation-suitability-wise (no sex ever, no travel outside the US/Canada zone ever, no black-market drugs ever, no prescription meds in the past year). About the only screening questions I *don’t* breeze through are “do you have the iron to spare” (sometimes I actually don’t; good thing they test that one first so if you fail there you haven’t wasted much time), “have you left Canada at all in the past two months” (oh, it was just New York/Massachusetts? that’s fine, go ahead), and “have you received a vaccination in the past three months” (oh, it was just a flu shot last month? that’s fine, go ahead).

It’s okay, I don’t mind being a total square.
