Vaccinated against winning

Enlightening literature. D.K. Shephard's prompt.

Vaccinated against exposure to Vocal Top Stories

Of course it works. I have not caught any recently

Cautiously, I stay away from those who catches them a lot

And don't even mention the official challenge winners

Literally don't have to worry. I barely come into contact with any.

    I heard we might very well have herd immunity.

    Exceptionally clever! There's definitely a raw frustration at the core of it and a genius delivery of the sentiment!

    Well I believe they may be slipping the vaccine in the drinking water. They are hard to come by and as for winning a challenge, I got vaccinated for that a long time ago. Really clever

    This should be the funny one...I totally get the feeling of being vaccinated...the reason for not catching top stories or heaven forbid place in an official challenge. Artfully done.
