The Body Humor

Taste your blood, if you dare, but beware:
Blood sugar is not a measure of how sweet you are.

“In case you failed to notice,
in case you failed to see,
this is my heart, bleeding before you,
this is me down on my knees.”

Song Lyric by Jewel, Foolish Games

    Every time I get wounded I cannot resist and taste my own blood. Does that mean I am a selfish vampire? Or do I just have suicidal tendencies?
    Btw I love the snaps you took on your allstars ;)

    I taste my own blood as well! Glad to see I’m not the only one doing that… makes me feel better.
