After the shot you have to wait around at least 15 minutes in case there's an adverse reaction.
Another patient walks up to her and says, "I really like your t-shirt!"
Mrs unblock say, "thanks I really like it too. I got it from the Samantha bee show."
The woman just nods. And keeps nodding. And keeps nodding.
Until mrs unblock finally says, "HOLY SHIT! YOU'RE SAMANTHA BEE!"

Also, mrs unblock would like it known that she did not actually tell Samantha Bee she got the t-shirt from her, although that is where she got it.

(82,849 posts)Isn't Samantha Bee . . . Canadian??? What's she doing getting vaccinated in the under God United States?
Actually, that's very cool. And I'm embarrassingly jealous.

Makes one believe some things are meant to be!

Karadeniz
(22,461 posts)Actually, I think some people will continue to wear them, at least in riskier places.

(12 posts)I went to NYC once to see a live taping of Samantha Bees show Full Frontal. It was a lot of fun. So funny - political - anger with GOP - the trifecta of the Chumpy Boy era. This era - who am I kidding. I love her show. Thank you so much for sharing. What a fun story!

The isolation is so hard because we know/hope that it is coming to an end soon.
I think that makes it so hard right now.
Im too am a nasty woman! 😃

(21,988 posts)My wife, who is a dancer, was auditioning for a Broadway show. She went into the ladies room and as she was washing her hands she started talking with a lady who was also washing her hands. The lady wished my wife good luck with her auditions, (dancers don't say "Break a leg," for obvious reasons. Instead they wish luck by saying, "Merde" . She then asked the lady if she was auditioning for something. She replied, "No, I'm Cyndi Lauper!"

(52,113 posts)It's funny how hard it is to recognize famous people if you ever encounter them in real life. You're not expecting it so you're not accessing your celebrity database LOL.
Years ago, mrs unblock signed me up for the New York Times crossword puzzle championship event. I sat at a table with several other contestants doing puzzles and chatting between rounds for three hours.
Afterwards mrs unblock said she admired how calm I was sitting across the table from phil donahue.
And I'm like... wait, what?

And apparently "samatha bee" had a mask on the entire time and refused to take it off! What was she hiding?
