Guess you were lucky.

I got the flu and covid shots last time. Knocked me on my ass for the weekend. BUT when I caught covid a few months later, it was an annoying cold. I’ll take a weekend on the couch over a week or more of shittiness any time.

and who the fuck is getting into any car without knowing how to open it in case of an emergency lol.

I think most people assume car doors all operate reasonably similarly. I don’t necessarily specifically check “how to open the door if I need to” when getting into a rental, an Uber, or a friend’s new car.
