As a medical student that gets nonsense like this as question stems on exams: "confused and horrified screaming"

does anyone know if the guy lived or died?

Younger guy would probably be ok with ventilation and some narcan if they get quickly to a hospital and they didn't drink much. Just a guess.

But they will have a hard time living that down.

I didn't notice that it was the patient's friend's cocktail and got a solid dose of "what the fuck maple leaf country" before I noticed

Do they really just dump a month supply of sedatives in a cup and walk away?

[–] Excrubulent@slrpnk.net 1 points 2 years ago

It says there was an attending paramedic, so I wouldn't say they walked away. Good thing the paramedic was there, too. I can't imagine being the medically responsible person and watching someone do that.

If sampling your friend's suicide drink isn't the definition of "too dumb to live," I don't know what is.

[–] thesporkeffect@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It sounds like the guy might have been suicide curious tbh

Idk, I feel like there's something distinctly human about "let me see".

It's like when someone announces how bad something smells and everyone takes a big wiff of the air. The odds are good that someone close by will grab it and verify.

I recently experienced this when someone let one go in a server room. Multiple people walked in to check and I was the weird one for just watching and laughing.

Ah, the ole 'courtesy sniff.'

[–] pixeltree@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 2 years ago

Sounds like good plausible deniability for finally getting off this rock

"too numb to live"

It's explained and pretty clear right from the start.

Can't blame us if we get tempted like that.

Almost sounds like a Dr. House episode

pictures for sad children.

ok but the older guy probably died thinking his friend was going to die too… 😭
