... Anyway, here's my question:
Can I file assault charges if a couple of kooky oldies (not my work oldies, OTHER oldies!)(the world is full of 'em.)(some are nice) tried to bully me into donating my precious blood? Don't they know this blood has been with me since I was a wee little mini Bee?? I'm very attached to it!
.
Plus... I AM TERRIFIED OF NEEDLES! By terrified I mean, my blood runs cold, I start to sweat, shake and speak in tongues. To say it's unpleasant would be the understatement of the century.
I walked into the building and a little elderly lady came out of nowhere.
.
"Hi! We're volunteering for Z Sources. We'd like you to donate blood today!"
.
Just. Like That.
No "Please", no "How you doin'?".
.
She didn't even acknowledge the hammer she had just thrown at me. She just kept staring at me with the lipstick-on-teeth-grin and unblinking eyes.

Me:
Sorry, no. I'm deathly afraid of needles. [and watching my blood ooze out of my veins]
.
Little oldie:
Oh honey, all you feel is a pinch then nothing!
.
Me: [I kept walking]
No, no. I can't do it.
.
When I entered the main lobby, I was horrified to see a wall of vampiric elderly people!
They had tables lining the walls. Lining the walls! ::They were everywhere.::
.
Right now you're thinking I'm dreaming, sadly I'm not! I was awake and my blood was pooling at my toes!
.
Then! I met Future Bee.
She didn't look like me, she was tall and rail thin but... well, you'll see.
.
Little oldie: [to Future Bee]
I'm telling her it won't hurt.
.
Future Bee: [look of derision]
What? Are you scared?
.
Cute and Cuddly Bee:
Frankly, yes!
.
Future Bee:
What are you 30? Don't be a baby!
.
Reasonable Bee:
Well that argument convinced me... NO.
.
Future Bee:
Giving blood is important, don't you care if somebody might need your blood to LIVE?? Don't you want to do something selfless in your life?
.
She seriously asked me that!
Hey man, I do stuff for other people! I'm semi-green. I umm... uh... I'm sure there's something else!
.
The other people were waiting for the outcome of our showdown. They sensed my fear and wanted my pure blood, they wanted it all!
.
I was beginning to think I'd never get to walk thru the office door and touch the stuff on my desk ever again. Luckily, this is what my bat adventures have prepared me for.
.
Bee:
I need my blood to live! I know you have all day to argue with me but I have to get to work!
.
At which point I ran into the office and slammed the door! Here I thought I'd be on time today!
.
Do you think they use the same techniques to train blood suckers as they do to train car salesmen? It's a good thing I'm well aware of my rights to retain my blood!
.
I felt happy that I had gotten thru more or less unharmed... unless you count the bathroom trips I had to make with their beedy eyes boring holes into my SOUL!
.
P.S.
Someone is threatening to kill Al Pacino in 88 minutes.
Well, he gave us The Godfather I & II. Scarface was overrated and the rest of his movies have been crap so... maybe we can take him out in 10 minutes?
.
P.P.S.
Devil's Advocate was good but it would have been better without Al Pacino and Keanu Reeves.
