    Ahh, fond memories of Chuckie Cheese...
    "Up-chuck and Sneeze" is what I called it when our kids were young.
    Time to go home and crawling after your kids through that grimy tube maze with drool, regurgitated food, pizza-smeared plexiglass, and the foul stench of kid farts and diaper blow-outs. The ball pit was bad too. Never knew what what might be found fermenting in there.
    Kid's had to build up their antibodies somewhere...

    That may depend on the type of cancer you had and whether you are still being treated. Many cancer therapies nowadays are immune-modulating and so could, in theory, alter your bodies reaction to the shot. That said, in my experience most patients can still get the shot without a problem.

    Best to ask your doctor about your specific situation though.

    Thanks Bety. I'm actually thinking about doing that today. It's been a week and I still can't breathe

    Do you still have a fever?? If so, for sure see MD. Especially if it is a fever that re-spiked, or "returned".....
    For me, flus always turn into a 2 week event. Haven't had one since I get shots (20 years). I have also had both pneumonia vaccines. I real do enjoy breathing--you should all try it sometime.....

    It is not to late to get a Flu shot or the flu.
    I am 60 and had the flu many times in the past.
    I earn a good living, working with people much older then me.
    Would not want to kill off my income.
    Get a flu shot, from now until...

    Dude.

    It's what south Texas locals call those "bouncy houses" for kids. It just seems redundant. "Jump Jump".

    It also sounds like the noise one would make by dragging a stick over some meth whore's ribcage.

    That is all.

    (my bold)

    https://yourlogicalfallacyis.com/false-cause

    false cause
    You presumed that a real or perceived relationship between things means that one is the cause of the other.
    Many people confuse correlation (things happening together or in sequence) for causation (that one thing actually causes the other to happen). Sometimes correlation is coincidental, or it may be attributable to a common cause.

    Example: Pointing to a fancy chart, Roger shows how temperatures have been rising over the past few centuries, whilst at the same time the numbers of pirates have been decreasing; thus pirates cool the world and global warming is a hoax.

    This argument is so filled with logical fallicies I give up.

    https://yourlogicalfallacyis.com/anecdotal

    anecdotal
    You used a personal experience or an isolated example instead of a sound argument or compelling evidence.
    It's often much easier for people to believe someone's testimony as opposed to understanding complex data and variation across a continuum. Quantitative scientific measures are almost always more accurate than personal perceptions and experiences, but our inclination is to believe that which is tangible to us, and/or the word of someone we trust over a more 'abstract' statistical reality.

    Example: Jason said that that was all cool and everything, but his grandfather smoked, like, 30 cigarettes a day and lived until 97 - so don't believe everything you read about meta analyses of methodologically sound studies showing proven causal relationships.

    I'm sure you're better at everything, including exercising logical thought.

    I provided source links so you could investigate yourself. Why take my word for it? But certainly your way is easier. I suppose I could quote the fallacy you just made in your last post, but what's the point?

    Why don't you click the link I provided you? Spend 15 minutes examining why you're making a complete fool of yourself with your arguments, and maybe learn something about how to craft an argument, or make a decision, based upon logic?

    You know, I never wear sunscreen when I surf. And I never got skin cancer. I don't know why...maybe it's because I always eat peanut butter and jelly for breakfast. There's no other explanation.

    In fact, everyone I know that got skin cancer didn't eat peanut butter and jelly for breakfast. And they wore sunscreen and still got skin cancer. So that's why I don't wear sunscreen.

    That's the ridiculous argument you made, BRAH.
