Teach your kids that if they're ever separated from you to find any closest adult (in emergencies).
告訴你的孩子們，如果他們和你走散了，就找身邊離得最近的成年人求助（僅限緊急情況）。
你身邊的那個(gè)人正好就是個(gè)戀童癖的概率幾乎為零。但如果等到第一個(gè)人主動(dòng)走到孩子身邊，那么概率就會(huì)顯著上升了。
I was taught that if I were separated from my mom to go up to a woman, especially one with kids, for help. Far less likely to be a pedophile.
我從小就知道如果和媽媽走散了，我就去找個(gè)女人幫忙，最好是帶著孩子的那種。肯定不可能是戀童癖。
"Find another mother."
“找其他的母親幫忙。”
家長(zhǎng)就是這么教育我的。
還有一種方法，如果是在特別繁忙，人非常多的區(qū)域，那就去找明顯屬于同一個(gè)團(tuán)體的人，例如全都穿著同樣的衣服之類(lèi)的。這能夠讓樂(lè)意幫忙的人變多，而且他們互相之間也很熟悉，所以如果分開(kāi)幫忙的話溝通起來(lái)也會(huì)更加方便。

don't mix bleach with anything but water
不要把漂白劑和水之外的任何東西混合。
Used bleach to clean up cat pee, made mustard gas and just about took out the entire family plus the pets. Spent the rest of the day outside while the house aired out.
曾經(jīng)用漂白劑洗貓尿，結(jié)果洗出了芥子氣來(lái)，差點(diǎn)把全家老小帶著寵物一波帶走，之后幾天都住在外邊，等房子自然通風(fēng)。

I had to get on my mom for pouring bleach in the washing machine with cat pee soaked blankets (from foster kittens). We had to open all the windows and keep the kittens in the car while the house aired out.
我得應(yīng)付媽媽把漂白液倒進(jìn)裝著被貓尿泡濕的毯子里（寄養(yǎng)的貓）的后果。我們把所有的窗戶(hù)都打開(kāi)，把小貓咪全都放進(jìn)了車(chē)?yán)铮却孔油L(fēng)。
Losing weight without trying could very well be cancer.
沒(méi)怎么動(dòng)就掉體重，很可能是癌癥。
Or diabetes
也有可能是糖尿病。
Excessive thirst combined with weight loss were the biggest signs of me having t1 diabetes. For a while i thought it was just the amount of weed i was smoking daily (cottonmouth and resisting the munchies); I was very wrong. Two months since diagnosis, its more or less under control now; the thirst has subsided immensely, and I’ve regained the thirty pounds I’ve lost!
極度口渴與體重下降，就是我患上T1糖尿病最大的跡象。有一陣子我以為自己只是吸大麻吸太多了；結(jié)果我錯(cuò)的不能再錯(cuò)了。確診之后兩個(gè)月，現(xiàn)在多少得到了控制，口渴的感覺(jué)得到極大的緩解，并且我也漲回了瘦下去的30磅肉！
Don’t pull a knife or anything else out of a puncture wound. The obxt may very well be keeping you from bleeding out, only a medical professional should remove something stuck in you.
不要把造成穿刺傷的刀子或者什么東西拔出來(lái)。那個(gè)東西很可能是在幫你止血，只有專(zhuān)業(yè)的醫(yī)療人員才有資格把東西從你體內(nèi)拔出來(lái)。

You lose heat 20 times faster when wet vs being dry. Shed wet clothes.
身上潮濕的時(shí)候，你失溫的速度是干燥時(shí)的20倍。把濕衣服脫掉。
There is a saying: "Cotton kills"... because cotton when it gets wet will retain wetness and cling to your body, speeding up hypothermia. If you're doing anything where hypothermia is even a possibility (like camping or hiking in colder climate) having wool or synthetic clothing can save your life.

If you get lost in the wilderness the best thing to do is to stay calm and stay put. Unless there is an immediate threat to your safety in the area, just sit down and wait for someone to come find you.

Don’t pour water on a grease fire put baking soda on it instead
油脂著火的時(shí)候不要潑水，往上灑小蘇打。
And flour is NOT an acceptable substitute for baking soda. Found that out the hard way.
并且不要用面粉替代小蘇打。我吃了虧。
Dang... You may have just saved me in the future. I was thinking, " baking soda?? I feel like I've always heard flour" thanks man!
我草……你可能救了未來(lái)的我一命。我剛才還在想，“小蘇打？我怎么覺(jué)得之前聽(tīng)的都是面粉??？”謝了哥們！
Flour mill explosions are catastrophic, because the airborne powder is quite flammable.
面粉廠爆炸都是災(zāi)難性的，因?yàn)榛烊肟諝獾姆蹓m非常易燃。
Baking soda will extinguish a fire, even grease and electrical fires.
小蘇打是可以滅火的，甚至油脂起火或者電器起火也能滅。
所以在你做飯或者燒烤的地方，你永遠(yuǎn)都應(yīng)該留一盒。
If you fall through the ice... the dark spot is the way out. Edit > the sun reflects off the ice surface. The spot you entered has no ice or reflection, so will be dark ... opposite what we would naturally think

如果做得到的話，就沿著與海岸平行的方向游出離岸流，然后再游回海岸。
The rocks from a river absorb water. When rapidly heated it causes the absorbed water to boil much quicker than steam can escape the rock. This buildup of steam causes the rock to explode, sending hot rock fragments everywhere.
河水里的石頭會(huì)吸水。迅速受熱時(shí)，石頭里吸收的水分沸騰的速度會(huì)大于蒸汽離開(kāi)石頭的速度。蒸汽的累積會(huì)讓石頭爆炸，把滾燙的碎石炸得到處都是。
所以不要用河里揀的石頭生火。
The general rule of thumb is 150 feet from a body of water if you’re gathering rocks for a fire pit.
總地來(lái)說(shuō)，原則就是如果你想撿石頭生火，那么最好去揀距離水體150米開(kāi)外的石頭。
If you can’t find you kid in your house, don’t search common places they would be. Search the most deadly places; pools, freezes, washing machines and dryers. Seconds count and if they are hiding under the table for an extra minute, who cares.
如果你在家找不到自己孩子了，別去找那些他們可能藏的普通地方。去找那些最致命的地方：泳池，冰箱，洗衣機(jī)，風(fēng)干機(jī)。每分每秒都很重要，如果他們只是在桌子底下多躲了一分鐘，誰(shuí)在乎呢。
Also, remember the golden rule for pool parties/family gatherings with kids: if everyone is watching the kids, no one is watching them. You need to specifically put someone on babysitting duty. You can switch people during the event, but it needs to be a specific person at all times.
還有，要記住帶孩子參加泳池派對(duì)和家庭聚會(huì)時(shí)的準(zhǔn)則：如果所有人都在看著孩子，那就是沒(méi)有人在看著孩子。你一定要專(zhuān)門(mén)指定某人去看孩子。你可以中途換人，但全程都應(yīng)該有個(gè)人看著。
這或許是我在reddit上看過(guò)的最有價(jià)值的評(píng)論了。

我們?cè)?jīng)考慮過(guò)挖個(gè)泳池——然后我意識(shí)到以后每次找不到自己家孩子了，我都得把心拴在褲腰帶上跑到泳池里去找他。
I read a post on Reddit about a woman whose 3 year old drowned. It happened so fast that she was still chewing the brownie they’d been sharing when she walked outside and saw him at the bottom of the pool. Drowning happens so incredibly fast.
我之前在reddit上讀過(guò)一篇帖子，說(shuō)一個(gè)女人的三歲孩子淹死了。事情發(fā)生得實(shí)在太快了，她嘴里還嚼著和孩子一起吃的布朗尼蛋糕，走出去發(fā)現(xiàn)孩子在泳池里淹死了。溺水發(fā)生得就是這么快。
My kid nearly drowned right in front of me. In a quiet backyard pool. He didn't even look like he was struggling but I saw a twinkle in his eye that he was in trouble.
我家孩子差點(diǎn)就在我面前淹死了。在安靜的后院水池里。他看起來(lái)一點(diǎn)都不像是在掙扎，但我看見(jiàn)他的眼睛里閃著淚光，證明他碰見(jiàn)麻煩了。
溺水就是這么安靜。我是澳大利亞人，所以我們很小就會(huì)被教育水上安全的知識(shí)。我立刻就看出了這些跡象。這種經(jīng)歷非常嚇人，我永遠(yuǎn)也忘不了他眼睛里的淚光，15年后我仍然在被當(dāng)年的這一幕折磨。
I lifeguarded through college. It really is odd how real life drownings are often just a person realizing they're in trouble and sinking. It's not always as dramatic as you see on TV.
上大學(xué)的時(shí)候我一直在當(dāng)救生員?，F(xiàn)實(shí)生活中的溺亡真的只是一個(gè)人知道自己出事了，并且在不斷沉底而已，并不全是像電視劇里那樣夸張。

Choking is silent. If they’re coughing, they’re not actually choking. If someone goes silent and starts pointing to their neck, start the Heimlich maneuver.
