| | You know, i'm not one to brag about how sexy I am, incredibly good looking, or even just how **** sexy I am, but I'm looking for some help. I was wondering if someone could give me some advice as to where to inject myself? This thread has made me realize how much difficulty I have doing it, or even the hard time i have moving my arms around to inject. I'm a bit shy to post photos, butttttt, I suppose I can put up one so you can maybe help me. Here: gunter-2.jpg

| | | The Deus guide to injecting:
1. Root around in pocket for insulin pen.
2. Get distracted by the surprising amount of fluff you can fit in one pocket.
3. Find pen.
4. Remove outer cap with left hand.
5. Remove inner cap with your teeth.
6. Do a 2u air shot
7. Dial up the insulin.
8. Randomly stab needle through t-shirt (or shorts, if sunny) to somewhere where you think there's body fat.
9. Plunge and hold for 5 seconds.
10. Replace cap with teeth.
11. Put metal cap back on.
12. Put pen in pocket.
13. Begin constructing folk monument out of fluff. |
