Reusing Subq pins?

Star Trek Reaction GIF
 
This has got to be the dumbest thing I’ve ever read and my old boss was a paranoid schizophrenic who sent me a full blown manifesto about his wifi router spying on him and eating cat food because there were listening devices inside the food and the only way to trick the government was to use the microwaves his stomach acid produced…
 
This the same kid whose asked for every type of gear source, var, tren, sema etc, then says something stupid and goes away... educate yourself man

I hope nobody comes up with some "Don't be mean" bullshit. That deserves a rake across the coals.
 
I don’t know man I probably change the pen needle on my Humalog 4 times through the entire vial so you’re probably safe but I do it purely out of laziness not necessity. Do as I say, not as I do. Replace the pin you lazy fuck.

I dropped mine of at the corner of 7th and University in a pickle jar under the bus stop bench, I wrote your screen name on a piece of masking tape in black marker

@Big_Jimmy434 please draw a map for this shining star to get his lightly used pins

That was your jar? I thought it was the bus stop bathroom. Oopsie. Sorry about that.
 
I don't mean to burst your bubble bromigo, but leaving aside the fact that you blunt the needle on every pin and tear your skin more each time and that an alcohol wipe doesn't necessarily kill all bacteria... How does your alcohol wipe clean the inside of the needle?

Understood not best practice, but does anyone else think it’s ok to reuse a Subq pin if wiped with alcohol wipe?

Other than you? NO fuck stick. You’re contaminating the vial you’re pinning from with a reused pin. Damn man you’re stupid.
 
Pins are cheap as dirt.

Coming from someone who gets stuck by needles all the time (because of cancer), there is no freaking way I would let myself, a nurse, a Dr., stick me with a used (even my own) needle. Thats just crazy. Why take a chance?

Plenty of good reasons!

If you use the same needle like 225 times, you have saved enough to buy a tub of protein!

Entry #42: “Science, Bro.”

Day 1
Heard that natural gains are for people who “don’t want it bad enough.” I want it bad enough. Vinny sold me a “starter steroid kit” out of his trunk — one vial, one needle, and a motivational quote: “Pain is just your muscles crying tears of success.”

First shot went great! Felt like a superhero. Biceps looked 4% bigger instantly (might’ve been the lighting). Needle went in smooth. 10/10. Easy.

Day 2
Forgot to buy new needles. Vinny said, “Just reuse it, bro. It’s like recycling — for your gains.” Makes sense. Save the planet, save my wallet.

Needle looked a little bent. Like it had opinions about being reused. Still worked, though. Felt a sting, but that’s probably just my body adapting to greatness.

Day 3
Noticed the needle tip looks like a fish hook now. Tried to straighten it with pliers. Precision work — like surgery.

Also, tried “sterilizing” it with hand sanitizer and a lighter. Now it’s black and smells like burnt regret. Used it anyway. Muscle science waits for no man.

Day 4
Arm hurts. Feels like it’s pulsating to a beat only it can hear. Googled “needle reuse side effects.” Closed the tab immediately — negative energy is bad for gains.

Vinny says it’s just “testosterone expanding my tissues.” Sounds legit. Ice pack time.

Day 5
Needle broke mid-injection. Half of it disappeared. Spent an hour flexing in front of the mirror hoping it’d pop out.
On the bright side, left bicep looks slightly more swollen than right — symmetry is overrated anyway.

Day 6
Went to urgent care. Nurse asked, “How many times did you use the same needle?”
I said, “Depends, are we counting emotional uses?”

She didn’t laugh. Pretty sure she called me “a cautionary tale.”

Day 7
No more steroids. Back to protein shakes and prayer. Vinny says he’s moving on to “herbal pre-workout made from ground-up bull testosterone.” I told him I’m taking a break from science.

Moral of the story:
New needles are cheaper than hospital bills, and flexing is free.
