Rat: This form is asking me what kind of blood I have.
Goat: Do you know?
Rat: Bad blood. Between me and all my relatives.
Goat: Not an actual blood type.
Rat: Is boiling a blood type.
Don’t know my blood type. Had a very bad experience the one time I tried donating blood. I know I shouldn’t feel the way I do about it and should try it again, but the freaking vampire (that’s how I feel about them, not what they really are) couldn’t hit a vein so I sat there with a lot more pain than I should have had before they told me they’d failed to hit a vein and wanted to try again. That was after they got four test tubes of what looked to be blood out of me. If that was blood, why couldn’t they get my blood type?
If you were in the military, you know your blood type. It’s there on your dog tags with your name, social security number, and religion (in case they need to give you last rites).
Am I the only one who had high school science in the late 60’s? We typed our blood , later I found out mine was positive . Been saddled with a generally positive attitude ever since .

My doctors don’t care about blood types and won’t tell me what mine is. That just makes my blood boil.
