Does SYG effectively decriminalize dueling?  With no Duty to Retreat, you've got no duty to avoid deadly conflicts.  Therefore, you can deliberately seek out deadly conflicts, so long as your opponent is reasonably armed.  Therefore, arranged duels.  If the loser presented a reasonable threat, the survivor can claim self-defense, and, as SYG largely removes the police's ability to investigate, who's to say otherwise?

Sometimes, when there is a blood drive, they give out swag of some sort to donors.  I have a Red Cross Red Sox T-shirt, a Red Cross Bruins T-shirt; I've gotten a five-dollars-off coupon for chocolates, a coupon for an ice cream cone, things like that.

 

Monday, I got the most pathetic gift I've ever gotten.  Any guesses?  I'll put it in comments, but I'd love to hear your ideas as to what the worst possible blood donation gift would be.  And note: I'm restricting it to worst POSSIBLE gift, not worst IMAGINEABLE, because it's one I actually got.

IAN: Hey, remember how I said that I was gonna turn my lame socks into Red Cross socks by drawing on them with a Sharpie?
LIS: Yeah? . . .
IAN: See? How do they look?
LIS: [looks]. . . like your feet were bleeding.
