Putting shots in arms - not political, the phrase just makes

I'm not normally squeamish about shots, but I've seen so many shot videos on the news lately that I am becoming squeamish about them.

Fauci Ouchie is good!
Thanks peabay

In the UK. That's a good one too!

There was a phrase I was thinking about a couple days ago and I wanted to ask about it here if someone brought of a pet peeve thread. And I already forgot what it was!

it's starting to remind me of the phrase "boots on the ground." I got soooooo sick of hearing that phrase that I wanted to punch the tv every time I heard it. LOL

I am sick to death of seeing close up video of someone injecting a person's arm.
Every time the needle used looks HUGE.

Having a vaccination does not bother me, but looking at all those needles is giving me trauma.

Anyone remember those amniocentesis needles?  Wow they were really long.

I just googled it and it said it was only about 3 inches.  

It really looked like a foot long when the dr was jabbing it into my belly.  

For some reason the needles on the news aren’t really bothering me. But alllllll the videos of people getting swabbed for the test drive me nuts. I’m like “we get it, we really do...it has to go WAY up there. No need to show it yet again!”

I spit out liquid on my screen or liquid went up my nose. When has that ever happened, maybe in third grade to impress your group of friends.Just hit like.

ITA about the "putting shots in the arms..." phrase. We know where the shots are supposed to be injected. Do we need to hear this graphic phrase??

I'm sick of seeing people get the injections too. I do have a fear of needles to begin with and this is making it much worse. It does seem like they have to really jam it in your arm and the needle seems to be HUGE to me. I don't know how I'd "relax". I don't relax each time I get a flu vaccine.

Another term I'm so sick of hearing on mainstream media is "unpack". It's as though a few people repeat the same phrase and then it takes off. STOP. Can we stop saying, "Well, we'll have to unpack that information and break it down..."

Also, journalists, etc., on the news seem to be getting much more unprofessional. They begin sentences with the word, "So................." REALLY?? Drop the "so".

Sidenote: Maybe we're all watching too much news!

i don't like it either.

My husband got his and he said it didn't hurt at all, for whatever that's worth.

I hope I remember this when I finally get mine. My arm was really sore after getting my flu shot this year. I swear it felt like a really big bruise for at least three days. Of course I did a drive up shot so my arm was anything but relaxed.

I know I have used this saying. Well about getting vaccines into arms as that just seems the easiest way to say it. I don’t use the word shot with it.

Have yet to hear this phrase....
