Piece of cake.  Wish I could find a swine flu shot.  There are none to be had around here.

Here's what's a little funny.  We went to a pharmacy near a hospital for one and their computers were malfunctioning, so it took forever to get one. 

By the way, it looks like your avatar is trying to shoot my CPU...LOL

Yeah, she's a handful.  But don't worry Brian, she's only hunting criminals and bad guys.

The shot itself, I didn;t feel anything. However, after a few minutes, my whole arm became terribly sore for the rest of the day.

After that, I was fine.

I still haven't decided whether I should get one. I'm fairly certain that they're injecting us with some kind of mind control drugs to make us join the army and vote for the right-wing parties. (Major political threats would obviously be wiped out with poison.) On the other hand there's a slight chance that they're just infecting us with that swine stuff so that they can sell us more medicine. Either way the absurdity of the whole thing will probably lure me into getting a shot sooner or later.

The seasonal flu shot made my arm sore, but the shot itself didn't hurt.

I am getting no flu shots period.

My white blood cells carry tactical nuclear weapons.

That's not a problem for you pacifists, is it?  TongueWink

Please don't come near me when you catch a cold, the nuclear fallout might be bad.

The only time you will want to be away from me is during my gassy periods...which is always.

Gas or nuclear fallout, both are just as deadly.

I cannot remember the last time I got sick but they were handing out flu shots and swine flu nasal spray at my school. It was quick, free, convenient and a friend was doing it so I figured I'd tag along. The shot was completely painless, but like so many others my arm felt sore for the day.
Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal.

I don't make a habit of running out and getting shots for diseases with a 99% survival rate.

I didn't get a flu shot becuase I'm not 90 years old.
