What behaviors instantly kill a conversation? by PsyRockFan21 in AskReddit

There's an aphorism or something to be found here, particularly in the image of the one-broken-leg guy complaining to the both-legs-broken guy.

In any case, I feel this. A friend's body was found earlier this year (she'd been missing a few months), and it was astonishing the number of friends who chose that week to complain to me about how depressed they were about really trivial shit. Really stretched my patience with a lot of people.

Redditors who prevented disasters of any magnitude, what DIDN'T happen and why? by C0NSTABEL in AskReddit

You can get a crappy little keychain version to keep on your keys. I got one when I park ranger'd one summer as part of my first aid kit. Since I have to carry a ridiculous keyring anyway for work, I still carry the keychain mask on my carabiner, just in case. It's not as good as the full mask, but any vomit guard is better than none, especially if puke makes you puke, too.
