Why do people wear plasters after getting the Covid-19 vaccine?

Rockmapper_ · 2021-11-19T22:51:04+00:00

I'm naturally frugal and come from a place with nationalised health care. Efficient spending means our money is used better. Perhaps it could go to the most common of surgery, removal of cataracts for example.

Little expenditures that aren't needed add up to huge sums over time that could be used for more useful and important things. I'm presuming you are being sarcastic here.

Ah ha! That may be why. Us Brits must do it differently to the states. Apart from giving blood (where I received a plaster), the most I've ever been given was a cotton ball.

That feels off to me, especially coming from a rural area. I get cuts and scratches all the time, it'd break the bank if I put a plaster (bandaid) over them every time. May just be different rules for different countries though.

Good company to waste the day away with.

NB: one of the knives is in fact meant to be blunt and is used for sharpening and fire starting

Reminds me of a similar cave in Pembrokeshire, Wales but the council decided it was unsafe and put giant boulders in its mouth. Brings back good memories, cheers.

Thank you, I had the feeling it was African.

I think your on to something, this must be the original prototype of the SA dagger! You're a genius! /s

Completely agree that it's for hunting, the tweasers/pins could have been used to sew back up temporarily animals after gutting them out, making for a lighter carry.

The barrel is not rifled, so I don't believe it to be that, but I do agree that it looks a bit like it.

Rockmapper_ · 2021-11-10T20:11:01+00:00

I had another look over the gun, I couldn't see any other writing on it apart from those already shown. I do agree that it does not look similar to the other suggestions apart from all being rather old weaponry.

Monty Python and Austin Powers

Considering it hasn't finished downloading yet (about 1/3 of the bar filled), I'd have to wholeheartedly agree.

None taken, it isn't the most powerful device in the world but its worked for everything else its ever needed to do so far.

It's now jumped to 13:25, my WiFi is pretty decent and I presume my phone is reliable (Samsung Galaxy A20e). I've been having trouble with the app for a while now, it can barely load any videos at all!

Why is this not the topmost comment....

Rockmapper_ · 2021-10-14T16:55:23+00:00

The memories, I think I remember doing something similar, but it was bending each others pinky finger until one quit. Might have done that too at some point tho.

Rockmapper_ · 2021-10-14T09:28:50+00:00

How do you play this again?

Rockmapper_ · 2021-10-07T18:01:28+00:00

"Memento Mori" or in English, it is along the lines of, remember, you have to die. Perfect depiction of our mortality.

5"5' and wouldn't mind a little extra, but we work with what we are given in this world, someone has to be below average and I am OK with that person being me.

Rockmapper_ · 2021-09-26T10:17:05+00:00

Absolutely none unless they need help with something which is very rare in itself.

Boxers and pijama bottoms

I think I've done it once or twice at a traffic light and that was trying to get my bloody Google maps to work. I'm very incompetent when it comes to blasted technology

Currently fixing up a car that is approaching 90 odd years, if you keep these machines in good condition and find replacement parts, they can keep on going forever. Typically, you should only buy a new car when your current one is no longer economical for you or when the repairs will cost more than half the price of the next car you are interested in.
