Maybe you're just eating oatmeal for breakfast. There's no taste to that.

I stand by it. Oatmeal is bland on it's own. The real flavor comes from what you add, be it fruit (dried or fresh), brown sugar, sliced almonds or other nuts, milk or cream.

I will donate ten dollars to Moms Demand Action if she ends up doing gun violence at the school.
What do you mean by “loaded for bear”?

How many under 5s have even been hospitalised with this? The risk profile for any vaccine for such minute benefit seems to argue against giving it to under fives.
