I live pretty clean, feel guilty about it to be honest. Got low blood pressure though, I remember having trouble giving blood at uni though as part of a medical thing I volunteered for, migraine research as a control patient since I never used to get headaches.Blood just stopped flowing out into the vial...I'm looking at it and like "wtf blood get in there"...just stopped flowing. Had to pump hand a bit IIRC, was slow going. Annoying and a bit embarrassing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They just chill (well most of them)not so sure about that MattyPhttps://news.vice.com/article/meet-the-violent-buddhists-starting-riots-in-sri-lankathis is a quote from a book titled, "Buddhist Warfare""It was then that I realized that I was a consumer of a very successful form of propaganda. Since the early 1900s, Buddhist monastic intellectuals such as Walpola Rahula, D. T. Suzuki, and Tenzin Gyatso, the Fourteenth Dalai Lama, have labored to raise Western awareness of their cultures and traditions. In doing so, they presented specific aspects of their Buddhist traditions while leaving out others."food for thought Edited 27/06/15 09:23 AM by bloodycrashboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything that can be misinterpreted or twisted needs to go. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never had any say Panda I <3 Floods Silver Donating Members 11,198 Member For: 13y 4m 11d Gender: Male Location: South West QLD Posted 27/06/15 01:22 PM Share Posted 27/06/15 01:22 PM I haven't donated in a long time. Should do it again. Oddly enough, I think certain religions need to move with the time. If they accept vaccinations and antibiotics they can accept blood when it is needed.A very good friend of mine was hit on his bike. (Lycra argument and whether he deserved it argument for another day).When I say hit he was cleaned up by a speeding car being driven by someone without a license.His riding companions estimated he went 2m in the air and was flung 30-40m.His parents arrived at the hospital just in time to stop him receiving a blood donation that would have greatly improved his chances.What yanks my chain was that he didn't follow his families religious beliefs. But when a dude is laying on a bed with his head cracked, face partly missing and back broken, he can't really communicate that with the medical team.We are incredibly lucky that he survived given that he was given no blood.

Religion = war , hate , suicide bombers , child abuse , cults , ect....I used to go to a Christian church. Clover crest AdelaideI even did the logo for there youth drop in center.Most of the people were great people but alot were two faced.Say one thing and do another.My wife even used to sing in church. Nothing against her she just sings in a different way sundays now. Lol she doesn't sing anymore. After dating me the whole church stop talking to her because I was not Christian. ( anymore because had no more skate ramps).I have quite a few mates that are Christian and all I can say is that they are great people. Dont push dont judge and love everyone. Great friends considering im such a mess.But as I said religion all you hear is all this bad stuff linked to a religion /god.f*ck it. If your going to believe well do it 100% because everyone has to believe in something. Me I dont know what to believe in. Maybe 23 in the mid maybe Edited 27/06/15 02:35 PM by Bizkets is fat? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
