Your "Signature" Thread

(I'm guessing you haven't actually used one of them if you're asking this–there a few little packets/bottles of chemicals inside that you have to mix, it's not like a pregnancy or drug test or whatever where it's all in a nice neat little package that you just have to expose to bodily fluid.)

Nope. I've never violated my nostrils with one.

I've never used one either.  Some of the other members of my household have used them every so often, but I've never been in a position of needing to.  Except a year ago, when I had a couple of minor cold-like symptoms and I was about to fly out of the country, but then I didn't really want to deal with the hassle of testing positive, so I just never bothered with the test.  I did get an N95 mask from someone for that trip, though, which is the only time I've worn one of those.

Anyway, I did once have my nostril violated when I had influenza several years ago.  I swear they were trying to get a sample of brain tissue...

At-home tests are hardly a "violation" compared to any other swab I've had at a doctor's office.

"Oregon's New Gas Law" (over in the Northwest board, obviously) is the only thread I've made that got any sort of traction whatsoever. Other than that my threads - until last year, anyway - have mostly consisted of two categories: Childish mistakes and/or duplicates, sometimes both.

(After recreating my account once the initial COPPA-related ban on my now-merged account expired, I posted very sparsely until 2022. There are several duplicate RRI sign threads under my name several pages deep in that subforum that I just wish could be deleted.)
