Narcosis Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 On a sidenote, I have a rather gloomy thing to mention. People with 0 blood type have the least chances of survivial in case of a need for a blood transfusion; Our blood cells are compatible only with these from other 0 type people; Ironically, 0 is the most precious blood type as well, since it can be used for people with any other blood types. So, if you ever wondered, whether you'll be able to die heroically - this is your answer. Blood centers will kill just to get your blood and it might save plenty of people; that is, until something really bad happens to you and there won't be any blood available for your transfusion. Chances are extremely high, since 0 type is always overused. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that case, I'd be a super hero, because not only am I type O, I'm also negative, those are considered to be the universal donors if I remember biology classes. And AB+ the universal receivers.

V_Kitsune_V Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Oh god I'm the only one with A+ on this thread, I'm special! But the traits for A were spot on for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the traits for A were spot on for me My long lost statistical outlier, how I have missed you.  Pretty much anyone with Rh+ blood has their donating abilities cut in half.  Probably why the Red Cross doesn't bug me as much as other people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V_Kitsune_V Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 I have no idea what my blood type is, I'm screwed if I need blood When I was still in Highschool we had blood drives twice a year I donated just to get out of class and get a card with my blood type on it, A+ just like my average in my CompTIA Networking Course Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stray Cat Posted August 12, 2014 Author Share Posted August 12, 2014 I have no idea what my blood type is, I'm screwed if I need blood I'm pretty sure they can do it in 10 minutes or less.  All else fails, you get O- blood.  I donated for EC in senior year Anatomy.  I was curious anyway so it was fun to find out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arturia Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 hmm im with the group of O+'s.. but according to that page i should be a "A"..as that is more like me then the O's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyrillej1 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 I'd be B blood type. Apparently it's the least desired and worst personality trait in Japan, lol. I don't believe it's accurate though. ;p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DawnWolf Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Not a clue what I am, but considering the majority of America is O... I imagine that? Dunno. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arakura Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 remember, people, always get a tattoo on your forehead which states your blood type. For safety purposes. ^^ I once watched an anime about blood types... it was short and weird and I can't say much more. Also, I thought O was rarer, but I guess I was just thinking O-. The more you know... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zenophilious Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 I'm type A-, and I'm not even close to being like my category is described. I fit type AB almost to the letter. I'm so forgetful I'd lose my hair if it wasn't growing out of my skin.  I'm pretty sure they can do it in 10 minutes or less.  All else fails, you get O- blood.  I donated for EC in senior year Anatomy.  I was curious anyway so it was fun to find out. Yep. I donated blood this year, and it actually took less than 10 minutes for me. It actually didn't hurt at all. I did it so a friend of mine would feel less scared about doing it herself, and so I could find out my blood type. I also got a coupon for a free carton of ice cream from Baskin Robin's, so I couldn't complain.

If you know your parent's you can do a punnet square real quick, there may be only one option.  Does anyone actually have split personality here? I really doubt that many AB people here have split personality I was actually considering the fact that maybe the people who say somewhat are part of the individual alleles.  For example I'm a type B phenotype but I'm a B/O genotype which may account for the fact that I have some traits of both B and O, as compared to someone who had a B/B genotype.  Also in case anyone's curious, I would classify Type A as Water, Type B as Fire, Type AB as Air and Type O as Earth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meru Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Here in Japan I get asked my blood type ALL THE TIME and people are always shocked that I don't know it.

You should check the wikipedia page and see which blood type you think you have, and then see if it matches when you find out which one you actually have. You know, for science!
