Reply to comment by cerebellum0 in TIFU ... by Drinking Alcohol Two Hours After Donating Blood, then Passing Out in a Tex-Mex Restaurant Bathroom by [deleted]

omg literally me. this wasn't my first rodeo passing out, so i mostly just wanted to do it in privacy instead of panicking a bunch of diners and making a scene lol. ill make sure to keep the advice given to not lock the door in mind for future medical issues

Do you think maybe you should find out why you are passing out? It doesn't sound like a fun rodeo. I mean, rodeos aren't generally fun, but still...

I get that a lot but it is usually caused by dehydration/heat/standing up too quickly, always a fun time though.

Okay first off, rodeo's aren't fun? They sound like a blast. And second, he passed out because he gave blood and then drank, its literally in the title lol
