Yesterday my son and I went to the flu shot clinic at the medical center in our home town. There were all sorts of people there lining up to get their shots. It was certainly the place to be!

While we were there, I overheard numerous people proclaiming how they "hate needles." There were many people who were making quite the deal out of getting a little shot. I bet that it makes the nurses cringe every time they hear that (unless they're already numb to it.)

I think that it is one of those things that people hear on TV that they decide to parrot in their own lives like: airplane food is terrible, I hate snakes, and kissing a smoker is like licking an ashtray. How about some originality?
