Gun = Rootie Tootie Point and Shootie

Pointy Shootie

FYI: Defibrillators don't start the heart, they stop it.

The heart doesn't stop in many heart attacks. Instead it just beats erratically and in a way that doesn't pump blood well. Shocking the heart to stop it (what a defib does) causes the nerve cells to "reboot" and start beating regularly again.

Shocking a victim who's heart has stopped is useless and automatic defibrillators won't go off until they've detected the arrhythmia.

Hearty restarty

It's essentially the "have you tried turning it off and back on again" of cardiology.

When I was a teenager my computer survived years of percussive maintenance. All I'm saying is, have doctors tried beating the shit out of their patients?

[–] Obi@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 year ago

Mind blown! 🤯

[–] wurstgulasch3000@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

I blame House MD for this common misconception

[–] angrystego@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Yes, thank you, I'm glad you mentioned it here, it doesn't happen often enough. I mean, it's even in the name, right? Defibrillator gets rid of fibrillation - the erratic beating!

And hippos aren't buoyant.

Brazilian Waxing = Shiny Giny

Beans = Farty Starties

Because they give you gas (pooty booty).

[–] MelodiousFunk@slrpnk.net 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

And if they went bad, you get booty shooty (diarrhea).

[–] andrew_bidlaw@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

Beans, beans, the musical fruit, the more you eat, the more you toot.

The lol per pixel ratio of this meme was significantly above the mean

[–] tteok@lemmy.world 19 points 1 year ago

I am literally reading this on my squatty potty (if you don't have one - BUY ONE)

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 19 points 1 year ago

Erectile Dysfunction = Teenie Weenie

[–] Godort@lemm.ee 12 points 1 year ago

It's a travesty that they aren't called "Fuzzy Buzzies"

[–] baldingpudenda@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Huh, I thought defibrillators were for arrhythmias, but it's also for cardiac arrest.

[–] Default_Defect@midwest.social 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yup, and it fucking sucks (better than dying though) to have one used on you.

[–] MelodiousFunk@slrpnk.net 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

...now I want to try it. Which is probably unwise.

[–] HappycamperNZ@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Call of the void.

Yeah, id probably join you.

[–] akincisor@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 year ago

It should be called Hearty Stoppy. That's what they do. Stop your heart so it can reboot in safe mode.

[–] davidagain@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

I am completely on board with this and suggest we amend all the dictionaries immediately.

[–] OneCardboardBox@lemmy.sdf.org 6 points 1 year ago

You can thank the US Army for that: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SCR-300

Perhaps my favorite meme ever

[–] Seasm0ke@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I call noodles, long ass rice.

[–] Etterra@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Well it's that or the Action Comics method.

Alliteration for everyone!

Tractor trailers = big rigs.

[–] Hux@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

I can only read this in Paul McCartney’s voice…

[–] ThePyroPython@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Surely Stamps should be called Lickie-Stickie-Posties.

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Prison Snitch = Snitchie Bitchies get the Stitchies

[–] affiliate@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

glowy hoppy

Real object names.
