I thought all of you might want to know what's going on with me:

I'm sure this will shock some of you but thought I would let you all know, that yesterday I volunteered for the vaccine trials for Covid-19, here in California. The vaccine is one that was created in Russia.
I received my first shot yesterday at 4:00 pm, and I wanted to let you all know that it’s completely safe, with иo side effects whatsoeveя, and that I feelsh?? ?o?osh?́ я чувствую себя немного странно и я думаю, что вытащил ослиные уши

Значит, это превращает пациентов в демократов? Поскольку вы уже являетесь одним из них, это не должно иметь никакого значения. Просто будь благодарен, что это не уши слона!

Donkey Ears?

So it turns patients into Democrats? Since you are already one of them, it shouldn't make any difference. Just be grateful that these are not elephant ears!

Funny,

What I really want to know is where she got her donkey ears from.

Think I’ll stick with proven measures such as Lysol inhalants and hydroxychloroquine lozenges.

"Na Zdorovie", meaning "cheers". Nostrovia is now used as English slang for “let's get drunk” and as a common drinking toast.

Said by Dad often, like when we sneezed!
