You can’t have any Vax shots within 8 weeks of donating. Unless the Covid one is different, that is what their questions ask, I got hit on a measles one or something so I make sure I have 8 weeks between anything.

The registration/check in questions for donating at the Red Cross are pretty interesting.

I know there's valid reasons but it's best to be focused while answering...went from pretty basic 'Have you been out of the country over the last two weeks?' to 'Have you shared a needle with a prostitute at any time recently?' pretty quickly.

I forgot to pay my car tags in July and got pulled over and ticketed. I'm moving out of state in 15 days and am considering not paying either.

It's all fun and games until you try and move back with an outstanding fine. Happened to my manager.

He was working a project in Washington in the early '00s and got a speeding ticket like a week before he was leaving the state (not an uncommon occurrence for him). He basically said f' it and didn't deal with it, figuring he'd never be back in that state again. Cut to 6 years later, back in Washington for a different project, and he's trying to get a his WA DL and he fines out that there is a warrant out for him! Needless to say that ended up being a very expensive ticket.

When we moved here from San Francisco, I did a quick take on our CA state taxes (along with our IA state & Fed taxes). CA owed us about 20 bucks, so I just didn't bother to fill it out. Figured they could keep it.
Three years later we get a bill from CA for over $100. Even though they owed us money, they levied a fine on us for not filing a return.

Due to this ridiculously stupid DR test I couldn't watch the game
Fortunately someone already has an edited version on YouTube. Just under 20 minutes

Did you respond with "She was an exotic dancer!"?

And an old Maria Muldaur song I probably haven't thought of in decades just popped into my head because of the guys doing **** talk again. Nightclub number from the 1974 Waitress in a Donut Shop album. Still the best take on this very old saucy number.
