If sampling your friend’s suicide drink isn’t the definition of “too dumb to live,” I don’t know what is.
“too numb to live”
It’s explained and pretty clear right from the start.
Can’t blame us if we get tempted like that.
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.’
Sounds like good plausible deniability for finally getting off this rock
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
I think ‘patient’ in the context of the slide refers to the partygoer who drank the preparation. And not that there was somebody other than the pancreatic cancer patient at the party with an absurd cocktail of strong drugs.
Do they really just dump a month supply of sedatives in a cup and walk away?
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.
I’d imagine a sedative overdose is the best way to go. First you get unconscious due to the sedative and once you don’t feel anything anymore your heart stops beating.
The ultimate vacation.
does anyone know if the guy lived or died?
I mean it’s likely
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 used to think Phenobarbarbital was sufficent for taking one’s life. That’s the only thing that gets discussed in media coverage of assisted suicide in my country.
IIRC, getting medication overdose to work is a coin flip depending on the patient. I think phenobarbital works pretty consistently, that’s why it’s not really prescribed for its non-lethal uses as often anymore, but they still throw in a bunch of other drugs in the euthanasia cocktail to increase the probability of a successful procedure.
As a medical student that gets nonsense like this as question stems on exams: “confused and horrified screaming”
Almost sounds like a Dr. House episode
ok but the older guy probably died thinking his friend was going to die too… 😭
pictures for sad children.
