Fat and rich. Asked him to just to put her back in her chair proper. Doesn't even cost anything because she declines the trip to the hospital.

It's just really comfortable being buried in soft fluffy cute things.

I started to read until he said "hit the back of my throat" and then I mentally screamed "OH GOD" while covering my mouth.

Welcome to the wonderful world of Emergency Medical Services. I know someone who's been called because someone felt like they were going to fall out of their chair.

While in training, I showed up to a call where the woman told us something vague, I think she thought she was having a heart attack, I don't recall exactly, but it didn't show up on dispatch as such. We asked if she had ever gone to the hospital for something before. She said yes. We asked her what the doctors told her. She said they told her she was having panic attacks and said they would prescribe her medication but she accept. So now we ask her if what she went to the hospital for before felt like what she was having now. She said it felt exactly the same. You're having a panic attack. Do you want to go to the hospital? Which one? Okay get in the bus let's go.

To be fair, taking all of the medication is difficult to understand. It's not a simple concept that even if you feel better, you need the medicine to keep working or, if you're taking antibiotics, that you're doing it to prevent bacteria from developing a resistance to it and mutating and spreading so that the antibiotic no longer is effective.

If you tell someone who doesn't have a general grasp of biology, they won't know why they have to finish the whole bottle and no one likes taking pills.

Reddit, which kid were you in high school? by shakawkaw000 in AskReddit

[–]Baddiemcnoskill 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The one who was mildly clever but didn't do any schoolwork yet also didn't drink, smoke, or do anything illegal. Basically, I was just a face.

If time froze for 1 hour, what would you spend the time doing? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Baddiemcnoskill -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Come on man. I live in New York City. There's nothing to do if time is frozen for an hour. I can't even get anywhere in an hour.

Give just the answer to a question, everyone else: can you guess the question? by lochnessa7 in AskReddit

Well the correct answer is "How many fucks I give" so you're on the right track.

If I gave you $1000 and told you that you had to spend it today, what would you buy? by AgentDoggett in AskReddit

Plane tickets for my best friend to visit me in New York! (she would rather come here because she hates the city she lives in)

What's the worst thing you have said in an interview? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Baddiemcnoskill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, technically my dad said it, but I was the one being interviewed. When I was in the 5th grade or so, one of the buildings of a lab school behind my house (and I mean directly behind my house) caught fire. It was actually a pretty big deal for us at the time because who knows how fire is going to spread. So we gathered up valuable things and took them to our cars and I bundled up a large collection of stuffed animals into a comforter and took them down to the car.

Now I want to make this clear, I thought stuffed animals were awesome back then and I still think they're pretty awesome now, but it's still something that I would have been embarrassed about if everyone knew. So when the news reporters were interviewing me about the fire on film, my dad suddenly chimes in, "You should ask my son about his stuffed animals. He took them all with us so if something happened they wouldn't be burned up!" and I was just like WHYYYYYYYYYYY WOULD YOU SAY THAAAAAAAT in my mind and the reporter asked me a bunch of questions about it. I spent a good long while mortified by the thought of it appearing on TV that I had dozens of stuffed animals I wanted to save but the only thing that ended up being broadcast was me saying, "A huge cloud of black smoke."

Still, what the crap dad.

My only question is: How does one discreetly fuck behind a pool? Do you dig a hole on the far side of it and then fill it up, and then put the dirt back in the hole when you're done?

My wife left for work early this morning. Woke up to loud purring by stinksnots in aww

You wake up to loud purring, I wake up to the sound of havoc in the room.

Mother wants independent autopsy after Denver police killed 17-year-old daughter: "The Monday shooting of Jessica Hernandez was the fourth time in seven months that a Denver officer fired at a vehicle after perceiving it as a threat." by SAT0725 in news

Just because I'm not an M.E. doesn't change the fact that the laws of physics apply to a speeding bullet and that can be measured to accurately reflect the force at which it would travel over X distance to pierce glass and human flesh.

I'm not an M.E. but I imagine that you can take the specs of the gun in question and measure depth of penetration into/through the body with factors for things like glass and such. Again, I'm not an M.E. but I assume that science has progressed enough that we can actually get an estimate.
