    I never saw burnt toast as an EMT. But I have seen people exhibit lots of aphasia, (expressive/receptive). People say some weird shit when they get water in their ipod. Frankly it’s a pretty scary symptom because the patient KNOWS they are receiving or emitting incorrectly, but can’t do anything about it. I bet the burnt toast meme came from aphasia

    Your description of what to look for is great. Time really matters, don’t “wait it out”. I’m looking at you 55+yo men that refuse to “make a fuss”.

    Strokes are one of the most “oh shit let’s go” calls we ever ran. (Obviously massive trauma and heart attacks too)

    Generally sure. We’ve certainly evolved to want to be around for a while after reproduction though, for example human infants are completely worthless. That doesn’t mean we need to be top notch, but we do need to exist sufficiently to get children to even the most brutal, basic independence.

    Compare that to something that hatches then is already just adulting, like many reptiles.

    I think the keyword is precocial vs altricial
