- Nah - you should do what I do - donate blood through apheresis, which is
- where they strap you down, stick needles in both arms, pull the blood
- from one arm and pump it back into the other. They take the platelets
- out during the process which they use to help all sorts of severely ill
- patients.
-
- However, the process takes about two hours, OR JUST ABOUT AS LONG AS
- A MST3K VIDEO! Thus, I always watch MST3k while my blood is being
- pumped out of my body - sort of appropriate when you think about it.
- Now this makes you strange!
