You should carry an epi pen if you've ever had any kind of allergic

I wonder,... I've heard that exposition can immunize (prevent)
allergies, and also that exposition can cause allergies.

Meanie Brian went with the pun instead of giving you the proper word,
which is exposure.

Allergies do in fact go both ways with exposure. The kind of
controlled exposure you get in allergy shots mystifies me. I don't
know how they determine an amount that will make you less reactive.


So I wonder, should I feel lucky for being bitten by everything smaller
than a beetle that gets within smelling distance of me?

No.

I'm very sorry about all those bites (snipped for length only).
