When I worked in ER, we had a 17 year old who swallowed a bag of cocaine while being arrested. Cops brought him in for an evaluation. The bag ended up rupturing and it caused his heard to stop.
how the hell does a child manage to swallow a god damn compass (this sounds so wrong, but google says its the right translation)
edit: my most upvoted comment and its about me not englishing very well
technically you are correct.
however its generally easier to just say yes. both countries speak german so for most people the difference is irrelevant.
Crane, nail, harbor, season, etc.
Honestly, most non-native English speakers speak it better than most people whose main language is english. Just remember, it's only hard because it doesn't make sense. It starts making sense with context. We never think about them meaning the same thing because there is always context or it's how you say the word. You got this!! I believe in you
I mean whenever someone even mentions germany, other gemans just spawn, it's like an scp. When they redid r/place some years ago a german flag just spawned, when it was increased so did the flag, there is no escaping germany.
Nope, it most definitely is not. A drafting compass has a holder for a pen or pencil. That is a pair of compasses for measuring distance on nautical charts or reading scales on plans or blueprints, because it has two points, not a point and a pencil.
Yeah yeah. A compass you can draw with, say on a plan or map. Dividers are used to skip across a plan or map in a known straight line measurement (width of the divider) or to take a point to point measurement and then measure the width of the divider.
Technically this is a 'drawing compass' or a 'compass calipers', but it's commonly known as a 'compass' and you tell the difference by context: whether you're finding North or drawing a circle with it.
I'm not too sure about why the names are like this, but the word 'compass' derives from 'route' or 'path', which makes sense as both a magnetic compass and a caliper compass were vital tools in map navigation at sea. The former to tell which direction you're facing, and the latter to measure how far you've gone in that direction. They may have been considered a paired tool, historically, but that's just a guess.
The word 'compass' originally meant 'circle' or 'circumscribed area' which is where the drawing instrument (and different types of measurement devices) gets its name.
A navigation compass got its name because they were housed in circular boxes.
Lol. You get it! This was my exact train of thought, I’m not sure why either my brain went “cross, alright so Star of David? no? ok iron cross? Ahh ok where’s that swastika?!”
I was squishing my eye because I thought yet another AI picture. Turns out Child eat things parents don't want, and we don't need to worry about if they get enough iron.
There had to be a lapse in observation with some of those, the legos, the coins, i can realistically see parents struggling to keep those out of their kid’s mouth. But how the fucking hell did two children manage to swallow sewing needles and one kid swallowed what looks like a pair of tweezers?
Easy, you bite on it because you are going to use it soon while your hand are both full doinh something else right now, somebody shocked you from the back and you accidentally swallow it while gasping/screaming in surprise. Like while sewing, taking care of your hair, or more commonly in muslim country, tidying your hijab before locking it with the needle/pin.
I remember few similar display cases in pediatric ward of hospital I was staying at in early 80s Poland. Beside usual assortment it had a bunch of nails and those scared the hell out of me.
Yes, my eye was drawn to the compass and what I thought was an IUD (damm little one you want a sibling that bad) looks like it's wire (that poor child)
Mütter museum in Philly has a whole section dedicated to looking at stuff found inside people that shouldn't be in people. The safety pin part made me clench
Does that say cocaine on one of them??
Yes!
The parent didnt want to have it back? Odd
they were very insistent it wasn't theirs
[удалено]
Literally Eric Cartman
*craps out $200,000,000 in fake pirate coins*
I wouldn't be surprised if they stuffed it down their own kids throat to hide it,... Society these days...
You're not wrong but you had to put that thought in our heads?
Damn, that's what happened to my midget drug mule.
Have to assume this is the whole reason they were removing things in the first place.
“Cocaine Twists” to be exact
Oh good. Thank god it was the regular cocane.
Holy wow though, I couldn't see anything past the "c". You've really got an eye for sniffable baggies
Ohhh that was coaine, i thought it was a white baloon or smth
Snnnniiiiiffffffff …. It sure does 😳
COCANIUM!
2 cocaines
Haha! I stopped at the Legos, didn’t even make it to the Lego assembly dust.
Bahahha thats a good one!!
Yes. Jokes aside, this is kinda sad too.
Break glass in case of emergency (cravings)
All 3 pixels of it
When I worked in ER, we had a 17 year old who swallowed a bag of cocaine while being arrested. Cops brought him in for an evaluation. The bag ended up rupturing and it caused his heard to stop.
Oh crap, I thought it said coconut something lmfaoooooooo
I was coming to ask this exact question!!!
2 cocaines
ONE thing?
I don't know why...
It doesn't even matter how hard you try...
Keep that in mind, I designed this rhyme to explain in due time...
All I know time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
watch it count down till the end of the day, the clock ticks life away
It's so unreal...
You didn't look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Its so unreal
All I know!
how the hell does a child manage to swallow a god damn compass (this sounds so wrong, but google says its the right translation) edit: my most upvoted comment and its about me not englishing very well
Yeah. That’s a compass
isnt a compass the thing that shows north though? god damn i hate languages
Yes but sometimes words have more than 1 meaning.
this is the same bs as 'weg' in german. Weg: a Path weg: going away (roughly)
Are you german?
yep, austria to be specific
So, not in fact German.
technically you are correct. however its generally easier to just say yes. both countries speak german so for most people the difference is irrelevant.
Yea but the difference is that the Austrians sound spicier
That's not german in austria. It's a different abomination.
No? One is in Europe and one is a whole ass continent
I wanted to find the alien shaking his head no in answer to "are you German?" In The 5th element, but I failed.
Don't forget that lead is spelled lead, and lead is spelled lead :)
i hate you for reminding me

pretty sure my english is better than my german at this point, just missing some specific words.
Now that's the proper American spirit! 🦅 Hahaha. It's cool that you're bilingual. I wish I would have done something like that when I was younger
How did you mention the word "german" without summoning the entire country?
just works that way when youre german
I mean whenever someone even mentions germany, other gemans just spawn, it's like an scp. When they redid r/place some years ago a german flag just spawned, when it was increased so did the flag, there is no escaping germany.
yep. if youre austrian/wannabe german they just avoid you. austrians and germans hate each other
Oooh, see, typically it doesn't matter who says it, they just spawn there, but I guess they hate you that much huh.
A compass points north, that is a pair of compasses
It's a drawing compass
Nope, it most definitely is not. A drafting compass has a holder for a pen or pencil. That is a pair of compasses for measuring distance on nautical charts or reading scales on plans or blueprints, because it has two points, not a point and a pencil.
What about a compass for scribbing metal?
That too, yes. But scribing, not scribbing. And it is still a pair of compasses.
A pair of compasses can still be referred to as a compass.
I could agree with you, but then we'd both be wrong...
What a rude thing to say. Thank you, i cant wait to say that to someone myself.
They’re in the geometry kits with compasses and we call them dividers where I’m from. I was scrolling down just to find your comment haha.
Yeah yeah. A compass you can draw with, say on a plan or map. Dividers are used to skip across a plan or map in a known straight line measurement (width of the divider) or to take a point to point measurement and then measure the width of the divider.
Why are you getting downvotes when you're right?
This is your first day on Reddit?
Ten years in and im still confused
It's a drawing compass.
It refers to both the north pointing thing and the device for drawing a perfect circle of known diameter
Technically this is a 'drawing compass' or a 'compass calipers', but it's commonly known as a 'compass' and you tell the difference by context: whether you're finding North or drawing a circle with it.

It is both.
Yes, and me too buddy
The word 'compass' originally meant 'circle' or 'circumscribed area' which is where the drawing instrument (and different types of measurement devices) gets its name. A navigation compass got its name because they were housed in circular boxes.
ooh.. that makes sense, thanks for explanation
Isn't that a divider?
I believe that is a divider, a compass has a place for a pencil to attach.
is divider the word for the steel ones used to mark metal?
The one above is used for measuring distance usually on drawings or maps, but I’m not sure of it’s other uses.
you know i never considered that something like that may exist, but it makes total sense that it does
If you look up "math compass" you'll see the other compass easier than looking up "compass". And you can see the difference from a divider
I knew it a protractor…
Chicken bones, cocaine, batteries. The balanced nutrition zones of crackheads
Can’t forget the plain foods such as bread, cream, white sauce, and aspic.
Am I seeing Pepe the frog or do I have internet Brain rot?
Hahaha I do see it.
Yes.
OH MY GOD YOURE RIGHT
Both
Okayeg
huh some parents are raising mules
Or Mabey a gallager
I had missed the Coke but caught an IUD
Even better are the displays of stuff they pulled out of peoples butt's lol
My real HolUp: Once I saw the amount of metal on here I just assumed I was looking for a swallowed swastika.
It was the cross that got me looking for a swastika. I don't know why, it just did.
Lol. You get it! This was my exact train of thought, I’m not sure why either my brain went “cross, alright so Star of David? no? ok iron cross? Ahh ok where’s that swastika?!”
Hahaha! Yep, my process, too! Haha! I'm glad that I'm not the only one whose mind went straight to that!
I was squishing my eye because I thought yet another AI picture. Turns out Child eat things parents don't want, and we don't need to worry about if they get enough iron.
Am I the only one seeing the Assassin's Creed logo if it where turned into abstract art?
How do you swallow a protractor?? Is it possible to learn this power?
It takes many years of practice eating amateurtractors.
Cocaine is a powerful drug — it makes compasses go down easier.
Little shit swallowed the shit😒😒😒
How much you want for that coke old man?
I don’t see any tide pods
Those dissolve nicely
There had to be a lapse in observation with some of those, the legos, the coins, i can realistically see parents struggling to keep those out of their kid’s mouth. But how the fucking hell did two children manage to swallow sewing needles and one kid swallowed what looks like a pair of tweezers?

My guy, there’s this thing called a pincushion.
Ah, there is the 1x4 Lego piece I’m missing in my set!
Just one seems off?
That's nothing, this Frenchman [ate an entire freaking airplane](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michel_Lotito)
Not surprised considering the quality of French food. Not counting the only thing they made edible, old moulded milk.
I was stuck on the cross. Was some parent trying to do an exorcism?
I remember few similar display cases in pediatric ward of hospital I was staying at in early 80s Poland. Beside usual assortment it had a bunch of nails and those scared the hell out of me.
I swallowed an entire lego helmet one time
Yikes, who would let children eat cocaine?
I thought this was a religious artifact.
I thought it's a collection of parents, and one kid swallowed all this 😂
My guess is the same kid who ate the compass ate the back of coke first.
Id be more worried about the fucking compass/scribe. How the hell did someone swallow that?
That was my first thought. That'd be something Ivan Milat would've eaten trying to get out of SupercMax 😂😂😂
Top right middle. Cocaine?
Yes, my eye was drawn to the compass and what I thought was an IUD (damm little one you want a sibling that bad) looks like it's wire (that poor child)
How bout that protractor though.
Oh thank God it's just cocaine...
You took the cocaine right?
Is this a compass meme?
Is that an AR15 autoseer??? Right of key
I have one of those handcuff keys in the middle
Children shouldn't eat chicken hearts
Now THIS is a hol up. Thank you kind citizen
The body of Christ
Yoink my coins now fucker
This reminds me of the similar display in the Boston Children's Hospital ENT department of stuff they've pulled out of kids noses and sinuses.
But where is paper?
Yeah all those coins
Little Timmy is doing a dime in timeout for smuggling Columbian bam bam.
Who wants some cocaine?!...... Well first we have to get little Johnny to cough it up, dip shit swallowed it when I told him keep it in a safe place.
Mütter museum in Philly has a whole section dedicated to looking at stuff found inside people that shouldn't be in people. The safety pin part made me clench
The mosr dangerous would probably be the batteries
You'd look like an epileptic jumping around with a 9v amping up on the way down, zzzzz zzzz zzzzz zzzzzz
So I should start shaking kids when I need change?
Jesus christ that's a compass
Cocaine baby
In all seriousness, if that cocaine bag burst in the child’s stomach that’s certain death.
Kiddo tried to have jesus in him
My picky kid swallowed a 3 inch bolt because I told her if she didn’t eat she was going to turn into a shrimp lol took it too literally
Gettin the compass down would be a dooozy
You're looking at the cocaine I'm looking at the fact that a child just probably straight up stared their parents in the face and ate a cross
Priests are know for shoving things In children
Tragic proof that cokeheads do in fact reproduce
