Nothing comes between me and my Reeses. Nothing.

So today while I was munching happily on my Reeses, also know as the deadliest candy at WHS, I was bombarded by several signs informing me that I was violating the "peanut friendly" policy.  You wanna know what I felt?

RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGE!

Yes, it's true people.  I hate the "Mr. Peanut will never, ever enter ( Read more... )

i hear you, but speaking as one of the people with a nut allergy, it's a severe allergy and any contact even with a desk that someone put a reeses or something on could put someone's life in danger. The slightest contact with a nut could potentially kill me or anyone else with a nut allergy. I know that realistically I won't be able to stay away from nuts all my life, but if its a question of living or dying, i'm sure as hell going to try. unfortunately it's impossible for me to adapt to the world when nuts are involved because i shouldnt even get near them. and just so that you know, you might already be aware of this, but at the first school committee meeting involving the nut-free issue a bunch of students from WHS went protesting the nut rules. Their protests went nowhere though seeing as the doctors and parents stated their case of the severity of this matter.

I'm honestly not trying to be an ass. I mean, I didnt even know about my allergies until about a month ago, but its kinda scary for me to walk around anywhere knowing that it's possible for me to have an attack at any time. I totally get your frustrations and if I ate nuts, I'd probably be pretty mad too. But unfortunately, the reality is that nut allergies are deadly. I definately agree with you, Kristine, why the fuck are scientists researching unimportant things when they could be spending their time working on the solutions to serious problems.

k well this is kinda long and i swear im not trying to be a pain.

You are definitely not being a pain. I here where you're coming from. I like hearing the opinion of someone with a peanut allergy. Thanks.

P.S. I would really like to learn how to use your epipen. I'm not quite sure if that's how it's spelt, but I really want to know how. Just in case something ever did happen.

I second the epi-pen, or however it is spelled.
