When I did get my 2nd Covid shot…..the pharmacist, a man, said that to me after he gave me the shot and when I was leaving the area. Damn, I just hate that phrase. 🤬 🤬 🤬

Indeed just about every time a Trump voter tries to invade my life I calmly say fuck you to them. I am done with Republicans. They can stay out of my lane.
