    My dad once joked about having a bomb while going through airport security.

    It was 1997, though.

    I still nearly came unglued at him.

    Security just rolled their eyes. And I’m pretty sure it was just basically like the call of the void. It was obviously a joke too

      both my wife and I have to stop ourselves from making those jokes. she swears she doesn’t have a dark sense of humor, but she works at a school. she’s had so many damn drills and we’ve had to seriously comprehend so many different horrific scenarios1 she sometime tells school shooting jokes to lighten the mood.

      1 that is supposed to be higher or lower dammit fuck you formatting short version of the training we've both had that is accessible to almost everyone

      If you’re wondering what’s the least you can do to get prepared, CPR and Stop the Bleed training are first aid training that are accessible, beginner level training that people of nearly every ability level can do. I am nearly bedridden and I get CPR and Stop the Bleed certified every other year (I tag along with my wife’s CPE. The district has gotten used to me showing up, I pay for my own cert, and we went to high school with the EMTs who teach the class (technically I taught one of them his first first aid class in boy scouts but meh. he’s passed his boards fair and square it’s just funny how small a world it is sometimes because we just keep reviewing the same shit every two years like we’re going to a bad church)

      edit: mild formatting, sent for coffee
