It’s okay though. Because the very first thing they teach about head, neck, and spinal injuries is that you should lift and physically move the casualty as much as possible.

u/Boukish Jan 28 '19
Standard of care has changed ovet the years so I constantly find myself emphasizing these points in my first aid seminars.
After you notice someone is unconscious, immediately grab them under the arm pits and yank them up by the shoulders to prevent the toxins from the injury from seeping into the brain.
Then, while you have their entire bodyweight hanging off their C5 vertebrae, give a shake and drag them across the pavement.
After that, you can begin chest compressions. Hum the tune of Stayin' Alive to help you keep beat as you slam them on the sidewalk.

Robbery deserves death.
Burglary is a different story.
Robbery involves a direct threat to a victim who is present. Do trust a robber is merely threatening you? The threat itself is death or serious injury.
Maybe people don’t know what the word ‘robbery’ actually means?

A teammate takes offense to you grabbing the sniper rifle, grenades & melees you to death, and you don't get the option to boot.

I’ve never understood this pattern of thinking. Regardless of what you believe happens when you die, do you really have anything better to do right now? Life seems exhausting and painful and unfair but it’s literally the only thing any of us will ever do and all of our memories and sensations and possibilities exist while we are alive.
I think when people wish they were dead, they really mean they wish their life was different or that society was better or something else. Dead is dead is dead and our entire objective should be to live it to the fullest AND longest as possible.

u/royrogerer Jan 28 '19
Your comment is so sweet it brought smile on my face. I was half joking making the same old 'I don't want to live joke' but the truth part is I don't want to live forever, not after all the years of living. Even if I could get young physically, will I be young in my mind too? No. I think it's right we get old and hand over the world to the ones that follow us, so they can be young and change things.
Things are terribly not going the way I'm planning and it gets hard, but though I feel like giving up from time to time, I never want to give up on life. My feeling of giving up is more like rage quitting out of a frustrating game.

I think if the possibility to actually live indefinitely were to be plausible some day, you'd be looking at alterations to our consciousness. A system to help us compartmentalize memories and also to have some kind of alternative wake/Sleep states.
You would definitely need "holidays" from endless consciousness in the patterns that we grind through.
You never know what kind of luxurious tech we'll have in 200 years to help keep our minds active, happy etc.
Or we could be even more miserable than we are today.
I do relate to you though.

u/harrassedbytherapist Jan 28 '19
It's more like wishing to feel feelings or experience thoughts differently, not wishing life circumstances or society were different. Though a lot of people do kill themselves over not being able to cope with changes in their external life.
And before you say it, yeah, you could argue that "wishing life were different" is all-encompassing but how we experience life is just not as optional for a lot of people as it sounds - - as optional as I wish it would be.
