A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I mean, it's totally possible to die and get better. A cousin of mine had a nasty car crash a few years ago. Died twice. He's fine now. Granted, I don't think he's killed anybody so the point is moot for him, but people absolutely can have defined K/D ratios.

If you get revived, that doesn't count as death

I'm sure battlefield medics are aware of clinical death. But, being on a battlefield, they have limited options for how to deal with it.

I'm sure they do! But I meant the video-game Battlefield, not actual battlefield medics. Since K/D is really a video game thing, I leaned into that

LOL - fair enough. I totally misinterpreted that. :D
