I actually have got it, and I survived. Probably because it (gasp) ISN'T Super Black Plague II Turbo.

You're also making it seem like one single person not taking the shot makes it useless for everyone else. In that case, wouldn't it be easier to not risk having anyone's body ****ed up from the shot?
Guess what? I'm also a Covid survivor. And I never compared it to the black plague. But it has killed over 3 million people world wide. It's not exactly a harmless little flu either. If you scoff at those numbers you're probably an asshole or a conspiracy theorist who doesn't believe the scientist. Or both.

Secondly, it's not just one person. There are literally countless people out there with that same attitude as you and together you're dangerous. The more people who get the vacc the less likely it is to survive and mutate into something our current vaccine won't prevent. But if enough people get the shot, then we have the potential to make Covid go extinct like we did with smallpox. Don't be a baby and go get the shot. It's not difficult. If you're in the certain parts of the US, you can literally just walk into a Walmart and get it for free.

Sorry if I'm a little upset but this attitude literally kills people and it pisses me off. Report me if you want but this isn't politics or fearmongering. This is just being a decent human being.

Precisely. The vaccine is free, and the pros far outweigh the cons. It sucks seing the virus being labelled as a ”political issue” when it’s just about decency and using common sense. It ain’t hard.

My understanding is it is free anywhere in the us. And there is more then enough supply for those who want it.

Get the shot.

A family friend of mine died of COVID in 2020, in the era where everyone was saying that it's not as bad as the flu and no big deal. Some person who didn't follow safety protocol is responsible for ending someone who my mother was very close with. A living human life ended because of recklessness and carelessness.

Idc if you sweat it off, get the damn shot.

I'm going to apologize for getting a little heated just there. Tbh I was getting so mad I was shaking. Normally I try to step away from the computer when I get mad and do something to calm myself down, but it's been a loooooong year and I felt like it needed to be said.

I'm not going to take back anything I said but I probably could have worded things more politely.

I am a hypochondriac. I fear the sun. Cancer. My heart aching and whatever else. I still got the shot. 30% reason to get the shot is for me. 70% is for everyone else. You can save lives getting vaccinated.

I know somebody who’s terrified of the thing. I’ve tried to convince them over and over that it’s perfectly fine, but they won’t listen to reason. And what’s weird is they’re perfectly rational in all other areas, they mask, they social distance. But when it comes to the vaccine now they’re scared.

I just don’t want you to die if Covid, what’s the big deal???

I have one of those in my life also. I told them i will social distance from them until they get the shot. Hopefully they listen.

Geez, I can understand the fear of needles and things, but letting it prevent you from getting a shot that could save your life, as well as the lives of others?

Sometimes, you just have to put your fears aside and do something like get the Covid vaccine to make it better for you and others, no matter how much you don't like it.

Man, I hate shaving. Everytime I have to go and do it I always manage to cut myself and it always hurts really ****ing bad :\

I've gotten a tad better at it over the few times I've done it but it still sucks. Doesn't help that the tactile feel of shaving cream triggers my adhd.

I don't know if you already know this or not, but this year in particular is a big year for cicadas, somewhat literally.

Cicadas are one of those bugs I don't really mind unless they get into my personal space. They're loud and annoying yes(a bit creepy-looking too might I add) but they're pretty harmless overall.

Like, obviously, if one of em flys into my face, I'm gonna ****ing scream, but I treat them like I would bees: don't bug me, I don't bug you.

That's how you make a grounded video. Don't give a crap about how the judicial system works.
