Where's Sipowicz?

Fred and Dave are friends. I called Fred and he said he hasn't spoken to Dave for a while but at that time he was doing well.

Dave started to curtail his posting after he made a brilliant and witty joke about an EpiPen.

A handful of clueless curmudgeons completely missed the humor and failed to get the punchline.

They went scorched earth on Dave.

That's when he started to disengage.
 
Now I have to search the forum for this EpiPen post that I have no memory of. I guess I’m getting old.

Glad you're still alive!

Good luck finding the thread. I did a search and came up with nothing. I also searched Narcan...

All I know about Epi-Pens is they're $45 at the local pharmacy. I'm glad I'm not allergic to bee stings or addicted to narcotics!
 
Apparently it was removed.

A shame as it was one for the ages.

We didn't remove the image. The posted link to another site is no longer valid...

This was the closest thing I could find...

Victim mentality and sympathetic mods; I imagine it drives many away.

Humor test: Look at the pic in Chad's post (#12). Some folks will ROFL immediately-pass. Some folks will read it once, hesitate, read it again and laugh hysterically-pass. Some folks be revolted immediately or delayed-fail.

I also missed the original kerfluffle, not paying attention, again. Joe
 
That is the kind of dark humor that public safety folks tend to enjoy based on the world in which we have worked. I don't remember it either, but anyone who is offended by that simply does not have enough life experience to see the humor.
And it raises awareness. People who are willing to help others need to know how to do it, so get some First Aid/CPR/AED training. When you enter any building look for the fire alarms and fire exits and look for the AED box. It is a good habit and no trouble at all. Any clients or regular customers that you have visiting should be comfortable giving you a quick EpiPen lesson.

Now if you yourself carry an EpiPen, show it to everyone! Think of it just like the safety lecture at the start of a commercial airline flight.
