I don't think she was talking about you, Miss Onyx. sweatdrop

My friend was supposed to give blood a couple weeks ago (not sure if he did, though blaugh ). Apparently, instead of a needle, they're doing a narrow, high-pressure air cannnon. eek From what I hear, it's more effective, and can either hurt more or less. sweatdrop

Lol, point missed, peoples.

Hihg pressured air cannon? Is that like...gonna shoot the blood out of you or something? Or is it gonna create a vacuum to suck the blood out?

Hm... sounds dangerous.

Sounds fun to watch. twisted

And I'm not exactly sure what's with the mechanics of the air thingy... sweatdrop I think you're right about the vaccum, though.

Isn't that exactly what a syringe does?

I thought a syringe was just a fancy way of saying needle. sweatdrop

...I thought needle was the pointy part,
and.. syringe was the tube part.

... I could be wrong. I'm wrong about a lot of things. sweatdrop

No, I think you're right about that. I think the syringe is the device, and the needle is part of the device. 3nodding

...but who cares? sweatdrop

I guess it doesn't matter... they're scary whether you call it a needle or syringe.

I think syringe is a scarier term... ninja

There's a word that makes me cringe.
I think that thing's called a syringe.

Anyway, A syringe creates a vacuum too. When you pull the thing back, the way it sucks the blood out is because pulling it back creates a vacuum that the blood must fill. Like a blackhole has to suck in things.
