THE CALM ONE!!!!
Curious if that's accurate. I have no tattoos myself. Maybe if I go to prison or something.

The mass shooting tragedy in Orlando early Sunday morning, along with World Blood Donor Day on Tuesday, are raising awareness of the importance of blood donations. People who want to give — and hopefully become regular donors — need to know about the eligibility requirements for doing so. One common question prospective donors have is can you donate blood if you have a tattoo?
In general, people with tattoos can donate blood. But in certain situations, you need to wait a year before giving. That's only the case if you live in a location where tattoo facilities aren't regulated, the American Red Cross explained. Most states regulate tattoo facilities, but they aren't regulated in D.C., New York, Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, Idaho, Georgia, Nevada, Massachusetts, Maryland, Utah, or Wyoming. So, if you have gotten a tattoo in one of these 11 locations within the past 12 months, you'll need to wait until after that time to donate blood.
So...it CAN be true.

It's not accurate. You can't donate blood if you've recently had a tattoo within a certain time period. I think it's a year but it could be longer.
Maybe 5 or 10. It's not a permanent thing.

A frog goes into a bank and approaches the teller. He can see from her nameplate that her name is Patty Whack.
"Miss Whack, I'd like to get a $30,000 loan to take a holiday."
Patty looks at the frog in disbelief and asks his name. The frog says his name is Kermit Jagger, his dad is Mick Jagger, and that it's okay, he knows the bank manager.
Patty explains that he will need to secure the loan with some collateral.
The frog says, "Sure. I have this," and produces a tiny porcelain elephant, about an inch tall, bright pink and perfectly formed.
Very confused, Patty explains that she'll have to consult with the bank manager and disappears into a back office.
She finds the manager and says, "There's a frog called Kermit Jagger out there who claims to know you and wants to borrow $30,000, and he wants to use this as collateral." She holds up the tiny pink elephant. "I mean, what in the world is this?"
The bank manager looks back at her and says, "It's a knickknack, Patty Whack. Give the frog a loan. His old man's a Rolling Stone."

Dave, usually when somebody has the doj in their hip pocket they don’t let go of’em.

I got pulled over last night and asked if I could pass a drug test.
I told the officer "Probably, lay them out and I'll try to tell you what they are."
That, apparently wasn't the answer he wanted...
I've decided to block anyone that posts stupid, irrelevant shit. Now I can't get on my own account.
