You can plan for, and define responses to, emergencies. That doesn't make them not emergencies.

- P5fRxh5kUvp2th 4y agoWhy do I feel like this thread is giving the word emergency an existential crisis :) To be an emergency or not to be an emergency, that is the question!
- boomboomsubban 4y agoAn common use of "emergency" in a similar manner, if I have stomach issues and need to use the toilet now, I will call the situation an emergency even if I haven't yet soiled my pants. If I reach the bathroom in time, the emergency ends with no major incident.
- kryogen1c 4y agoQuite right. If there is a fire in your house, it is still an emergency even if you have an extinguisher and evacuation plan.
