*LB* s/o Donating blood/plasma
Now you can do this too! You're welcome. 
Re: *LB* s/o Donating blood/plasma
LB wouldn't be either.
I am not even joking that I seriously considered donating plasma when I was a brokeass college student. I had a friend that did it a few times a week (a sorority sister! We had to pay for those mani/pedis somehow) and I actually went with her. But it was all meth addict looking folk so I got scared and decided it wasn't worth the $12 or whatever.
But no, I would not do it for the benefit of mankind. I'm really selfish and heartless. Honestly. I feel like people don't believe me.
I feel like this statement is so backwards. Most people would be saying "I swear I'm NOT selfish & heartless. Honestly. I feel like people don't believe me."
But not our dear, LB. She's a selfish, heartless capitalist.
lol You beat me to it. I was going to suggest plasma donation to her.
I knew people in college who did it so they would have drinking money for that night. Morons were beyond sick. Yeah...don't drink on the day you donate.
I don't judge this any more or less than people that use any kind of paycheck/money to buy drugs.
It's more involved. They have to remove a lot more blood to get adequate amounts of plasma so they circle it back into you. I believe they pull from one arm, circulate the plasma out and then give the blood back to you in the other arm. (With much more technical medical terms to explain what I actually just said.)
That's what they did. Even when you donate blood they tell you to take it easy & drink lots of water. I've felt bad when I have a beer or 2 after I donate. They did the plasma, went out drinking and then felt like total and utter crap.

Up to $300 a month, LB!!!
This is true. It takes a long longer time-wise too. In many places, they'll put a movie on for you to watch while you're donating.
Exactly... so you get drunker faster & with your $12. It makes sense.
Wacko's opens at 7 AM.
And that's like G-rated stripping!
Thanks for the clarification. That makes sense.
No, no, LB. You are way better than the morning shift. C'mon now, have some standards!
