I don't know my blood type, I forgot it. I haven't given blood in years.

O negative. Universal donor. Gave blood several times. Don't know if I'm still able to give blood. I should check into it.

Statistically speaking, we should see O+ win this poll, since it's the most common blood type.

I'm A-

I given many,many times but can't anymore due to meds I take daily. I first found out my type after joining the ARMY at 18 years old when after getting my dog tags as it was printed on them.

And if it comes out for whatever reason, you will just scoop it up and put it back in?

O+ and donate every 6 weeks

I have no idea, but I don't think people who have had Hepatitis A can give, so I don't worry about it too much.

AB+, not super rare, but not common either. Always get pestered to give blood though.

Last time I gave blood, it was a military doctor that take it. About a dozen pokes to get the needle in the vessel, then the tube was ripped out at a nice angle, leaving a nice bloody gash on my arm.

O+ and have given, uhh...maybe 7 times. I rather like giving blood - I'll trade my people-juice for cookies anyday.
(oh yeah, and that whole life-saving possibility is pretty OK too, I guess)
