All I needed to know about real life, I learned at the movies...

When an airplane's pilot is incapacitated, there is always someone on board who knows how to fly. The substitute pilot will always suffer some mental trauma as soon as they get behind the controls.

Similarily, there is always a doctor on board any aircraft in distress. The doctor also happens to be a specialist in exactly the field of medicine that is the problem.

It's perfectly safe to cut the jugular of anyone who is having trouble breathing, just remove the inside of a biro pen and insert into the hole to help them out.

Everyone dries really fast after getting out of the shower, tub, pool, etc... without dripping. Make up is also completely waterproof while indulging in any of these activities.

Does every thread, even the ones we are just trying to have fun in, have to turn into an argument? Maybe there should be a forum for arguments. That way if you have complaints they can go there, instead of ruining other peoples' fun

Well, to be fair, I hijacked Col's ranting thread for a while talking about fun stuff.
Turnabout, they say, is fair play.

Sorry if this sounds pedantic (honestly I don't go around the internet correcting people ) but I imagine if you cut the jugular then yes it very stupid they will probably bleed to death but of course you don't breath through your jugular, I think your meant the windpipe and this is a perfectly legitimate technique (albeit risky to the untrained) to clear an obstruction higher in the throat.

Sorry I'll stop now I can seem to resist atm

True. Fair is fair, I guess.

Bad guys very often have no motive such as personal gain, but instead just do bad things for the sheer sake of being bad.

And they wear clothes made out of motorcycle tyres.

You can smoke in restaurants, regardless of what the law says.

You're quite right, it is supposed to be the windpipe. Of course with my medical knowledge being as accurate as those who perform this "surgery" on tv/film, I'd probably cut the wrong thing, but it wouldn't matter because they'd still survive, as long as it was in the script.

I should think you'd be sorry you little Minkey Having a go at old ladies like that... lol

Unless the "hero" is driving in which case it lands totally unscaved.

Small, quiet girls with long dark hair and old-fashioned dresses are demonic. Twins matching this description, doubly so.
