    #14 reminds me of a nearly-horrific Thanksgiving morning when I was 15 and we did that to my mother. I’d never seen Dad scared before then, but damned if he wasn’t shaking just as bad as me and the little sister.

    Captcha: centimetre SS – Well, THAT explains a lot! No wonder they were so pissy all the time!

    Not to get nitpicky…but “You’ll be alright” is generally the first thing any paramedic says when they encounter a conscious person in need of attention; what was the context of that, if you don’t mind me asking?

    For #5, it turns out that is also not an acceptable answer when someone brings you a piece of classified equipment to repair 20 minutes before a mission.

    I believe in the case of #5, the correct answer is, “Drink water, Change your socks and Drive on”

    For #8, I always prefered taking the M113 airborne to wake up my TC.
