Some people just refuse to go to the hospital.

I knew a couple guys who had been struck by lightning. They were terrified of storms after, so when there was any lightning in the distance, they would rush inside with their coats over their heads.
I do not want to be struck by lightning.
One thing I learned back from my paramedic days was that given how much fucking power is running through the patient, theyre remarkably survivable provided CPR is done pretty quick.
Most cardiac arrests that occur out of a hospital have abysmal survival rates. You got a friend who can do some compressions after a lightning strike though? You’ll almost certainly come back after a few minutes.
And for your troubles you get a cool scar (ie: ferning) and a lifetime fear of thunderstorms.
I’ve always wanted to be struck by lightning (and survive with relatively few complications). Not enough to tempt fate. Kinda like how everyone “wants to die,” but they never actually kill themselves. Y’know?
You can try to get tased and see if that scratches your itch. Most people that I’ve talked to that have been tased and been pepper spray say they would rather get pepper sprayed again. They really hated the shock. I know lighting would be way more power than a taser but it’s something…
I don’t wanna try to do anything; I just think it would be a cool story to tell if it happened naturally. “Dude, I was just walking to my front door after work and BAM!” That kinda thing.
…I think you’re describing either depression, or masochism.
What? No, like, y’know how we all kinda wanna die all the time- like how we all kinda hope the gas tanker crosses the line and there’s nothing we can do about it. Y’know?
Are you confusing depression with call-of-the-void or something?
No
…No?
You may need to see a therapist then
…No
You can’t psychoanalyze yourself, so you might wanna look into it. Just sayin’. Times are tough all around.
I’m not trying to psychoanalyse myself. I’m saying that I don’t think “not wanting to die” is grounds to get therapy. Quite the opposite, in fact.
Or like how everything becomes pointless and grey, so you begin cutting your skin so that when the time comes, you’ll be ready?
Finally, a normal fucking reply. What’s with these sickos?
No idea bro. Burning is also pretty dope.
I thought this would be a continuation of the previous one, since this character fell off a cliff. Would have been funnier if she said “you just fell off a cliff” and then lightning strikes him
These don’t really seem to follow any real logic or any sense of comedy or … anything?
I first thought it’s just AI crap…but even ai manages to be funny. These comics are…I don’t even know. Do they just want to make me feel dumb coz I don’t get them?
That describes almost every comic I see on lemmy.
The userbase here has a weird sense of humour.
And a willingness to defend Queen Pizzacake to the death, for some reason.
I’ve only ever seen people talk about pizzacake drama but never actually seen the drama.
Feels pretty manufactured to me
I never saw what happened on Reddit, but if you say her materiel is bad, everyone absolutely loses their shit.
Literally have only seen a person or two (maybe you’re one of them?) promoting this drama.
