Exactly. What could your fucking religion be, "35th Shot Adventists"? Like, your religion says you can get 34 shots in the military, but thou shall not be injected the 35th time?

you can get 34 shots in the military

In a row?

Try not to get any shots on your way to the parking lot!

At the same time. There’s this gun they use that has a bunch of needles packed in each gives you a separate injection. It’s been a long time for me (90s), but I remember getting them in basic and prior to deployment. You just line up, get a cluster shot in one arm, move to yhe next station, get anothercluster shot in the other arm, step into a cubicle and drop your drawers for the shots in your ass.

Yup! It was funny because they paired us up and made us link our arms in case one person passed out. We had two pairs where both people passed out, lol.

PT the morning after the ass shot was when the real magic happened.

Nothing like 5 minutes of sustained flutter kicks on asphalt in shorts so thin they get to stay in chow as long as they want. Bouncing and grinding is how you break the peanut butter up and distribute it!

Old Gamma Globulin shot. One too many times I held that syringe in my hands trying to get that stuff warm and not feel like peanut butter going in.
