And the 'winners' get bragging rights?

I got two doses of COVID-19 vaccine, and have had three boosters so far. I'm not bragging about that, because it's not like some kind of heroic achievement. It's just a statement of fact.

me to stand and shout it from?

I've had every shot and every booster available, and I'll continue to have each new booster as they become available.

I also get my influenza vaccine each year, I've had two vaccinations against pneumonia, and two Shingrix vaccinations.

I'll get every vaccination offered to me, because I believe in science, not some invisible angry sky daddy, and certainly not the "professionals" on Facebook and Twitter "universities".

Fuck you, Tomi. 🖕

They did it before social media, but bragging alone about being an idiot was a subtle deterrent back then. Even the most outrageous fool occasionally had a twinge of shame then.

Social media has made it much easier to reach other ignorant fools. Safety in numbers, and all that. Now the biggest fools are worshipped. They're "un-woke" heroes.

My wife and I are on alert for news about the next shot. We are both in the high 60s and I have no doubt we are both alive today because of the shots. Good thing I don’t listen to Fox or I wouldn’t be here to post. What the CDC has told me has been correct.

And her parents thought she would amount to something. Actually she did amount to something, but it’s too early in the day for me to be ugly. I’ll wait til it’s dark so she won’t see me posting.

We’ve been FULLY vaccinated, and proud of it. And I’ll GLADLY brag about it and let everybody know. All my/our friends and family know. I’m proud of being fully vaccinated and I carry my card around with me at all times, happy to show proof.

So THERE!

Thank you for being such a prolific platelet donor. It's much more time consuming than regular blood donation, and the platelets don't last that long. Just think of the lives you've saved over the years. You're the champion in my book.

I used to donate blood when I was younger, but then I had an accident and have been taking such a cocktail of medications ever since they suggested I discontinue my donations. I'm glad there are people like you in the world who take the time to think of others.

I can't believe how ignorant that saloppe* is, the fact that Pox mandated the shots is likely the only reason she's alive.

It's the same logic where they claimed the lack of Biden rallies, signs, and hats was proof the election was stolen from Trump.

Our side isn't really trying to throw it in anyone's face. Their side often owns themselves though.

27. He also made numerous tweets opposing common-sense attempts at Covid prevention. One example...
Tue Jan 24, 2023, 03:43 AM
Jan 2023

... was his tweet about the July 4th event at Mount Rushmore. "People are fed up!", he declared (7/1/20), making Covid precautions into another front in the culture war. Herman Cain made other specious claims like "the vast majority of people who get exposed to the virus don't even get sick" (4/30/20). Cain's lax attitude probably resulted in him contracting a fatal case of the virus, whether at Trump's infamous Tulsa rally or while traveling with the Trump campaign.

In a macabre twist, Cain's staff (and possibly his family) continued to post from his official Twitter account long after his death from Covid on Joly 30, 2020.
