Who here donates blood?
I just got my blood donor card in the mail today. Kind of makes me want to make it a more regular thing. I usually donate during blood drives, but with this membership I can get reminders when I'm eligible to donate blood again (56 day intervals).
I'm eligible again Sept 3, I think I'll donate before my San Diego trip
BTW, Type O POS here

You can, but your blood type isn't universal. I suggest you still donate or maybe donate red blood cells.

Oh, that's right. It's a safe bet that you will be denied then.
