  • 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.










  • You say that but I’ve had two classes this semester with an 70%+ fail rate. One of them probably needs addressed in the sense the professor was ass, but one was just straight up hard. They gave no fucks about failing over half the class. The pre-req for that class also had a 60% failure rate (based on who I see repeating it).

    I don’t doubt some universities are degree mills, and ASU has always been known as a party school, but I assure you it’s not as widespread as some would believe based on my experiences at 3 universities.

    That being said, the quality of student certainly seems to have dropped.
