I think a living human who smelled like a rotting corpse would be forced to go away from other people too.
Was this a House episode?
Probably not getting buried, though.
Probably.
In a lot of places in the US, a living human who smelled like a rotting corpse is going to catch 2 to the head.
Or be nominated a Secretary of Health and Human Services.
Could you imagine the confusion if you are used to it though… you’ve considered this scent to mean dead your whole life. would be kind of like as a human noticing your heart isn’t beating, your skin is pale… realizing you are in a coffin and everyone’s performing a service… hmm… guess I am dead. course I guess that’s kind of the difference is humans aren’t so accepting of things. we could be unable to move, realize we are looking from the perspective of our head, which is on the ground 2’ away from the rest of our body and our first thought would be, "Hey can you hear me? Hello!!.
Depends on the human. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cotard's_syndrome
Side note: I am furious that I wasn’t able to find the name of this syndrome without ChatGPT. Is this a skill issue or are traditional search engines (in this case DuckDuckGo) just completely useless now?
I googled “human thinks he’s dead” and that Wikipedia page was the first result
well “skill issue” was one of the options so it might be that
Why “human”? Seems a weird way to phrase it but I can’t deny it works.
Well I don’t think you’d find it if you tried platypus
Normally these types of articles use more clinical verbiage
🤷♂️Pretty much the whole Internet got worse in the last decade. Search engines are a pain to use nowadays.
duckduckgo has become pretty worthless for search, ecosia is slightly better i think but without the privacy benefits. i have a local llm running in koboldcpp that i use if i really need to just bounce words off something while it nods along
seems like it might be skill issue in this case. a Google search for “medical condition person thinks they’re dead” gave it immediately
Traditional search engines are fucking garbage lately. You search for two words and it gives you generic results for whichever’s more popular. Or it decides a brief phrase, however generic, must mean exactly one thing, so you only see results related to a song by that title.
Honestly while I don’t like the AI searches, this instance maybe skill issue. Brain fart or smth
that seems to be the consensus, I’ve accepted it :P
Rookie move.
Love me some pictures for sad children
Have another.
Have a PNG version.
And another.
Have a picture of a signed physical copy.
smells itself
eh I guess I died…
You have a spray bottle of oleic acid
Who do you spray: Trump, JD Vance, RFK jr or Caroline Leavitt
Yes
Correct
For humans, I heard it say to use butyric acid.
RFK jr because funny
Yeah be he’s already half dead from the worm
not interested unless it’s fluoroantimonic acid
E.O. Wilson is a monster scientist. His book “The Ants” is mind-bogglingly thorough
E.O. Wilson is my hero. More people should study his work for how to approach science. Passion and curiosity got him everywhere.
Well damn. I wasn’t expecting to be adding a new book to my reading list as a result of this thread, but y’all’s enthusiasm is such that I feel I have to.
“The Ants” isn’t casual reading, it’s a dense compendium of everything known about ants, covering every known genus and their morphology and behavior. There’s a key, too, so you can identify ants based on their morphology, assuming you ever feel like counting antennomeres or tarsal segments.
“journey to the ants” is a great book for anyone to check out
I wonder what will happen if they put that chemical into an insecticide spray.
Ants coming to bring you more dead ants. You will be the evil ant god.
The walking ants.
why doesn’t the ant that was sprayed on carry itself away.
It would be inappropriate for a dead ant to move.
They must
restlive in peace.
“I swear I’m not dead!”
“Yea we don’t care, you smell dead and it’s disgusting, leave until you take a bath”
fist time in earth history to get a day off
Moving means partly alive, but partly alive means mostly dead, so off you go!
What the hell happened to the ant? My god I dislike cliffhangers.
It says at the end. It hung out in the graveyard, then went back to work.
