WATERBUFFALO-skinned

I and my sister are watching an afternoon action-drama series right now. I prepared 2 mugs of hot coffee for each of us, and I also brought out 2 packs of magic cheese-flavored biscuits to enjoy our TV watching. Suddenly, my sister started slapping her legs. I asked her why. She said she feels some small insects flying and landing in her legs, and biting her. I told her “I don’t feel anything”. Maybe she is too OCD about anything she feels. So I kidded that “I don’t feel any bites because “I am carabao-thick-skinned”. We laughed at what I said. The carabao is our national animal. Although the word is not common to other countries, it is sometimes referred to as “water buffalo”.

Well if there is a mosquito inside the home, I am the one that it will bite and my husband will say "I feel nothing". He has a less sensitive skin and different blood group, mosquitoes love my blood group.

@ridingbet My blood group is 0- (zero negative), I can donate to all groups, I am only compatible with the same group. One of my cousin has the same and the mosquitoes also bite her as much as they bite me.

I am lucky that the little critters don't like me a lot. So I guess I am a little thick skinned too.

It is okay to have a skin as thick as the carabao's but please refuse the horns.

or maybe the sensitivity of your skin is heightened that for every buzzing of a mosquito, you can feel the presence of the blood-sucker.
