"Our half-assed attempt at accountability didn't accomplish the goals we never established or measured."

Well I mean without a consolidated NatID there aren't very many viable ways to actually index that kind of stuff

Hey NWO conspiracy big brains. I thought this was supposed to be a permanent visa?

I'm still waiting for the vaccine to kill me. They promised I only had 2 years, but here I am...

Wait, the 5G alert that went out earlier today didn't activate the nanite shed and turn you into a zombie?

Huh, you must have gotten one of those placebo shots.

Bbbrrraaaaaiiiiinnnnnssssss

2 years? Damn mine promised to kill me in short 6 months. Still waiting though, so you might have got the better deal...

Wasn’t it considered a conspiracy that they would even exist at all?

[–] [email protected] 26 points 2 years ago (3 children)

I lamented mine already. Its value will go up ten years from now.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 2 years ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 17 points 2 years ago

Lamented, yup

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 years ago (2 children)

They lose their value if you laminate them. You wouldn't laminate Action Comics #1, would you?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago

You might lament doing it though and that's valid

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Wouldn’t undamaged laminated comics be worth more than unlaminated damaged ones?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

You know ... you have a point

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I threw mine out long ago. I live in a deep red state, and nobody ever asked for them anyways.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I lived in a fairly liberal city (Denver) and nobody has cared at all since mid-2021. Funny thing is Covid rates have gone up and down since then, but if you didn't have it in 2021 some people acted like you were a total heathen.

The only time I was ever asked for my vaccination card was by a healthcare client at a previous gig. I've had more cards than I've had questions about it.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I brought mine with me when I got the latest booster, and the pharmacist said that she hadn’t seen one of those in a long time.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Brought mine too, realized it was full, so the pharmacist offered me a new one. It only has two slots for boosters, which seems ridiculously optimistic now.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

I brought mine to my booster two weeks ago, and the last spot was still empty (I couldn't get the first shot for like six months after it was available). The woman giving the shot didn't even mention it, and I forgot about it until I'd already left.

Maybe I should have asked for it and then for a free ice cream or something.

an obviously important step in the Illuminati plan to keep tabs on everyone.

Gonna frame mine with the title "Free CDC Cardstock"

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

I'm going to still keep mine in my medical bag along with my other meds since I'm immune compromised. Just in case, etc.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

I'm flying to Ireland in March for a batchelorette party and my friend was putting the tickets on her card. She asked for my covid Vax card, and I was like: do they still require that??

They don't.
