No need to show off your allergies to me. All these exotic allergies did not exist when I was little. They exist today because we are giving birth to weaker specimens plus people find ways to weaken themselves enough to develop allergies. Allergies don’t mean you are special they mean you are weak. I am firm on this and won’t be responding
Sure they existed when we were kids. People tended to die from them first, though. Peanut allergies are no exotic. They are very common with peanuts being one of the worst allergens.
And no, allergies do not mean you are weak. On the contrary, the immune system is doing too good a job.
If you don't plan on responding, why'd you come on the thread just to poke a stick in other's eye?
BTW, we get it. You think you're pretty speshul.....
“All these exotic allergies did not exist when I was little.”
How long ago were you “little”? Peanut allergy has been around since peanuts*. And at 1.5% or so of the US population, that’s hardly exotic. 1% is 3 million people in the US.
It’s lawyers and activism that puts it in the news today. If it happened in 1936 and nobody put it in the newspaper, nobody knew about it.
*My dad knew PA people when he was “little” and he’s older than dirt.
