Reply to comment by Devittraisedto2 in LPT: just because an injury is described as "non life-threatening," doesn't mean that it isn't life changing. Someone could be paralyzed from the waist down and that would still be considered non life-threatening by [deleted]

Dude you are not the gate keeper of useful information, go touch some grass and stop sorting by new to shoot down posts people think up

"Useful" information to you is trivial to the rest because of how impractical it is to most people's lives. Im asking you the practicality of it and here you are being pissy because you don't have an actual answer on how this can be applied to daily life.

My apologies for inquiring too much on how this could benefit me, since it seems it doesn't benefit most people at all outside of "mayhaps there be a life changing injury on site of the non-life threatening incident"

True, the distinction is there, but it doesn't change anything much except for the people affected by it.

Look man I just thought it was a useful tip, I'm not here to be told why my idea isn't exactly what makes gatekeepers happy

Look kid, it’s a bad post. Nothing to get all upset about, just take it down. Oh, and an injury that causes paralysis is always going to be considered life threatening.

It’s a piece of information, yes, but not every piece of information qualifies as an LPT. LPTs are pieces of actionable knowledge or informed advice that readers use to improve their life. And I mean “use” in action, not just “knowing.” Knowing facts like the one you posted is great and all, but it’s not an LPT. For example, I could post an LPT that “a lichen is a combination of an algae and fungus”… but how is that really actionable to improve someone’s life?
