can't bc i'm borderline anemic, which is a real thing they tell a lot of women even though it sounds made-up.

Strange that they would call you so often for AB-... AB is the universal recipient, while O neg is universal donor.

I'm anemic and some of the meds I take are on the "no fly list" to give blood. So there, I have a damn reason!

senior year of hs I "volunteered" at the school blood drive which meant that for the ENTIRE DAY I got to skip class, place bulging blood bags into coolers, and bring wet towels to the pussies who passed out. Everyone else there was like "I got to miss 20 minutes of class and all I had to do was get a massive needle shoved into my body to steal my lifeforce away" and I was like "o rly i didnt but i have been eating cookies for 6 hours straight anyway ^_^" |

They just can't get enough of my A negative blood. And it comes fortified with all necessary conservative vitamins. A negative can go to any any person with an A in their blood type.
"Blood group A is associated with high frequencies in Europe, especially in Scandinavia and Central Europe, although its highest frequencies occur in some Australian Aborigine populations and the Blackfoot Indians of Montana." |

O positively. But not to those blood sucking Red Cross whores. I donate to the community blood bank. They're much nicer, have a cool Winnebago on the go blood mobile, and actually appreciate my donations. Unlike those blood sucking Red Cross whores. Don't get me started.
They also don't hound me on the phone as much as the RC. |

I used to give blood, a lot. When they have blood drives at work I volunteer if they have it on a day I am working. I just had surgery, so no blood giving for a year.

Used to give, but I've been anemic for the last year or so.

I get squirmy and panicky just thinking about it, so no thanks. Don't mind blood in general, don't mind needles in general, but I have some kind of phobia about my circulatory system. I can't feel my pulse and I can't look at veins or touch my temples, and I don't like having the inside of my elbows or wrists exposed. Last time I had blood drawn I passed out in the lobby afterwards because I had to psyche myself up so much going into it that I OD'ed on adrenaline.

Nope, I'm anemic and since I had the Thyroid cancer, my body can't regulate my blood calcium and other vitamin levels. Most days my blood isn't good enough for me let alone anyone else

Of course no one gives blood here. Half of the board are gaes who aren't allowed, and the other half are hausfraus who have numerous health problems or no opportunity to do so since they are cleaning the house!

I did once, "before I was gay." It didn't bother me but I haven't done it since because of obvious reasons.
