So if the woman has to yeet the baby to execute the birthing process, why is there no goal post?

Ok, I’m still trying to understand here…

According to a number of other comments, execute basically means to complete a process. So, isn’t the pancake the executed final product? Isn’t the baby?.. 🤔

English is so fucking confusing 🤷

So to execute a program is to start as execute a human is to…? 🤔

Interesting, thanks for the info and link.

So the next time I meet a woman that recently gave birth, I can confidently congratulate her for executing a new human!

So, if there was any actual consistency to the English language, giving birth would mean the same as executing a new person…?

All awesome advice, but this is a pocket size kit that’s practically full already. I think I might be able to fit a 2 Alka-Seltzer packet in there, but that would be a pretty tight fit…

Edit: I already have some medical bandage tape in there, probably only about 2 feet or so though, re-rolled section to be flat to fit in the box…

Meh, I ain’t stressing it too much, I’m mostly using select supplies from our home first aid kit, 140 items. All too many are just average size bandages, Equate brand, almost like they just simply dumped a 50 box of them in there to pump up the item count…

Just using what I got ya know, not like I’m in a hurry to have to even test different bandages…

True that.

Here in South Mississippi, yes we have a few rare wildlife risks out here, but we rarely venture out into the woods.

We either travel by vehicle, or I ride alone on my BMX bike. Which means our biggest risk might be busted knuckles or busted knees, or allergic reaction for me from a bug bite…

I just used plain old super glue, but I kept close inspection of the wound and bandages and disinfectant and all as it healed.

After washing thoroughly and after the bleeding finally almost stopped, I used either iodine or betadine solution to disinfect, dabbed that off, then cut a strip of paper towel to fit over the rip. Then super glue that on, wait for it to dry, then I’d smooth it out with acetone.

I kept the bandage protected with a bicycle glove through the next month, while I managed to continue my tech job doing hardware repairs on computers, tablets and phones.

The rip itself was more or less surprisingly straight and clean, thankfully. The rip came from a large sharp wood splinter from a dryrotted broken broomstick.

Every 2 to 3 days, I’d make sure to peel all that off and inspect. Each time I’d have to peel super glue out of the wound with tweezers (yes I should try to fit some tweezers in the kit), wash, rinse and repeat as stated above. It healed up so perfectly that I can barely even see the scar myself.

👍

Oof, I just realized our full size kit that I got most of the items from didn’t even come with a thermal blanket.

Agreed ☹️

As the dumbfuck that actually did that, I almost wholeheartedly agree, such measures should only be temporary at most, until they get to the hospital.

At least I dropped the disclaimer, I’m no doctor, I’m just a knucklehead, one that’s had pain level 13 on the 10 scale before, so super glue drying in my wound didn’t even bother me.

Hey, even as temporary use, at least super glue might help keep the patient from leaking out…

South Mississippi here. I can usually find a store with super glue somewhere within a half mile radius of my area, in the meantime I can use the bandages or 2x2 inch pad and tape until I get to a store.

But yeah you’re right, smaller first aid kits and survival kits are best arranged depending on the location and more common risks and needs.

I’ve used superglue on myself before too, check my recent comments.

Point is, it ain’t gonna store well in a vehicle glovebox. Not good for storage in a first aid kit, you want stuff that can last a few years or more…

I’m not really looking to expand it past the mini single pocket kit I’ve arranged. My two main risks are between busted knees or busted knuckles, but I also have allergies and occasional belly issues, hence the benadryl and pepto bismol.

But of course I have a little diversity of bandages, along with some medical tape. Hard pressed to fit much else in there though, especially any actual mechanical items.

But… In my other pocket, I carry a Nextool Card Tool…

Yeah it might not be the most functional tool in the world, but it’s actually amazingly well made for what it is, and part of my everyday carry.

I have everything there except the pouch… 👍

You’ve clearly never worked with superglue then.

Last night I had to use a rasp file to file superglue off of my fingers, because the tube busted on me when trying to open it.

Note that I didn’t say I filed my fingernails, I literally had to file my fingers, using a rasp file meant for wood no less.

I ain’t trying to test and see if everything in an emergency kit might get glued together…
