Get your flu shot kids. Seriously. DO. NOT. WANT. I just spent the last week feeling like I was going to die. Take my advice. And alcohol kills germs, so get drunk, and get your damn flu shot. Maybe not in that order. ---

I never had one either, but I’m starting to consider making it an anual event. I never want this crap again. I hear the elderly are more prone to the flu. That’s my downfall right there. I’m getting old. ---

nope. I’ve heard too many stories about the flu shot not even working or people getting sick from the actual shot. Not worth it at all ---

I get the flu shot every year. Never gotten the flu from it. I did get the flu last year though. Gotta say, probably the worst week in my life. Picture the worst hangover you’ve had (provided you’ve had a hangover that’s kept you bed ridden), and extend it by 5 days. ---
