I think mine is "O" but its something I should really know for sure. What other questions should you know the answer to but dont?

GLaDOS · 08-11-2011 05:24PM

I'm A+, if you donate blood they tell you.

Kiera · 08-11-2011 05:24PM

How would one know about this? People here think it is very strange that I don't know what mine is!

John Doe1 · 08-11-2011 05:26PM

What is your name?

RachaelVO · 08-11-2011 05:26PM

A+ (one of the most common blood types in Ireland)

As was already said, when you give blood they send you a card with your blood type on it!

What's a tracker mortgage?

January · 08-11-2011 05:27PM

A+ here too

John Doe1 · 08-11-2011 05:28PM

Why does your alibi for murdering that girl not fit

You ought to become a blood donor, if you can. Then you'll know what type you are, and also whether the rhesus factor is positive or negative. It's always good to know what your blood type is and even write it on a sticker and put it in your passport, just in case you are in an accident abroad. Other things that you should know include whether or not you are allergic to penicillin or other antibiotics.:)

As they say, blood donors save lives. Including mine a bit over a year ago. May those anonymous persons live long and prosper.:cool:

Captain Chaos · 08-11-2011 05:30PM

My doctor told me I had BO
I'm not sure he was talking about my bloodtype though

My name is URL · 08-11-2011 05:36PM

O-

I can donate blood to anyone but only receive blood from those with the same type as myself. Bit of a raw deal if you ask me.

just fall pregnant and they'll do a check as part of the routine blood tests...:D
(didn't know mine until this year - never needed to know it, either).

'Oh you wear glasses, what's your prescription?'

Eh...

marty1985 · 08-11-2011 05:40PM

The only question you really need to know the answer to is when the paramedics ask you "WHAT DID YOU TAKE?"

I think you're call the Universal Giver, and O+ is the universal receiver!

You're just too generous for your own good Url

dulpit · 08-11-2011 05:41PM

A- here. In an elite bunch of roughly 5% of Irish population

(although can only receive from that same bunch so

).

On other questions that I don't know the answer too:

"I don't know what a tracker mortgage is"

Twee. · 08-11-2011 05:44PM

I don't know my blood type. I went to give blood a few weeks ago and when they tried, nothing came out. Even after a wiggle of the needle (ow, btw), nope, nothing for no one. I'll try again in a few months!

flutterflye · 08-11-2011 05:44PM

I'm O- too.
So, what- I can give blood to anyone of any blood type, but if I need blood then it must be O- ?
Is that right?

Raytown Rocks · 08-11-2011 05:44PM

B- 2% of the country.

Thats probably bad for me I fear.

This reminded me of a funny incident that happened to us last year in Australia, we were out on the town in Perth on a saturday night and my cousin was fairly drunk but she had not taken any ID out with her, but we had gotten served in a few places already.

As we went trying to get in to this place the bouncers put on her and asked her for ID and she was like but I don't have any and then she shouted out very loudly, hang on I have my HIV Card, your what? the bouncer asked, oh my HIV card, oh yes I have HIV the ditzy girl proclaimed while I and my other friend nearly died laughing at her. She meant her VHI Insurance card, I showed the lad my own passport and he left us all in but needless to say my cousin got some funny looks after that blunder.

When we told her it in the morning she was mortified and shortly after being left in she went looking for "fags" inside the club much to the amusement of the staff serving, it took her a few days to wise up that "fags" is an Irish and British term for smokes but she thought everyone Worldwide knew it.

Group O- can only take O- blood and O- can be given to anyone so you're right.

How generous of you :pac:
