People Are Cracking Up At This Guy’s List Of Rules For People To Follow In Case He’s Ever In A Coma
It’s always a good idea to be prepared. It’s not just a responsible thing to do, but also a very practical solution to potential problems, even if you don’t expect them, just in case.
Well, this guy has it all sorted out.
A TikToker has recently shared a hilarious video of the rules to follow if he finds himself in a coma, supposedly for his family or others who will be taking care of him while he’s unavailable.
More info: TikTok | Instagram | Twitter

There are situations that you can’t be prepared for, but you can surely try—like preparing for a coma

Meet Paul Black, a Scottish actor, writer, and TikToker, who published a video on his TikTok channel listing all of the things that his caretakers, whether his family, friends, or the hospital staff, have to follow until he bounces back.
The list includes a variety of rules that, for the most part, are absolutely hilarious, but some do make sense regardless if you’re serious about this or not.

Things like keeping him shaven, inviting people to talk to him, not even necessarily apologizing, and updating him on world events sound very reasonable, and there are many cases when people actually do it with comatose patients.
Everything else is, however, a straight-up parody that will certainly set you in a good mood. It’s things like running social media and Go Fund Me campaigns for the guy, putting a cigarette to just let him know he has one, including him in TikTok trends, and playing Lady Gaga’s ‘Chromatica’ over his Apple AirPods.

Among the comments, he said, he explained that the pop-culture updates have to be from a trusted source, preferably a gay man, and it should include news like Rihanna dropping a new album or if Meghan Markle gets assassinated.
For his hair, he said he needs a skin fade, a type of fading haircut, to be done once a week so as to avoid sideburns as he doesn’t have the facial structure for it.
Things like demanding apologies from those who wronged him in person and including his comatose body into TikTok Trends is what made the internet laugh

Also, the social media manager for his coma must be paid 25k a year for keeping his spirits alive, the Go Fund Me must raise enough money for his new skinny body for interviews, and whoever comes through the Make-A-Wish foundation must be “a real” pop star, not a “local” one.
His video went viral, garnering over 415k views on TikTok and 90k likes across several platforms

Over 415,000 people have already watched the video on Paul’s TikTok channel and found it hilarious. Since the video launched, it has garnered over 95,000 likes across multiple platforms.

my husband was in a coma for about 6 weeks. Of course we were too grief-stricken to so any of those things but they would have been helpful! We should have brought in the cats to hang out with him in the hospital, and he is so PROUD of the weight loss (80 pounds) and tells us we can all do it if you really work hard. Fortunately he saved his clothes from 30 years ago and is thrilled they fit again.

I like all of these. I would like to add that someone needs to bring my dog in at least once a day to sit on me.

Pretty much the same except for the skin fade (I'm female), and change "Chromatica" to "Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go."

God yes play me the music I like! I had to endure a lot of random radio pop not to my taste and it would bring weird, somewhat lyric related coma delusions that were awful. I think if I had had upbeat songs I associate with good times, I would have had a better time of it! Also, having someone say "I know you're still in there" (when you are awake but locked in/can't move for some reason), although well intentioned was bloody terrifying! I was thinking "yes I damn well am and don't unplug me or do anything, I'm here". Then my sis arrived from overseas, looked at me during her first visit and said "oh yes she's in there mum and she's annoyed. I don't think she wants your hands on her face" (she was 100% right she was tugging my feeding tube in my nose accidentally). Don't know if that helps but if you have someone you are close to, who is good at reading your face/eyes, they can be so reassuring

It's amazing how dumb people are here. IT'S HUMOUR. IT IS NOT FOR REAL. Have people lost the ability to think for themselves. Put a cigarette in his mouth?! One chance at losing weight? Someone paid 25k to keep his name on social media? Use your brains, people. He's a comic actor. Do you need people to spell these things out to you?! "Oh, don't check his tiktok, I can see his personality without seeing his videos." No you can't, you moron.

Play me Justin Bieber. Nothing will convince my body more to get up than the urge to escape.

Just let him grow out a nice Charlton Heston "Planet of the Apes" beard and put him in a diaper. Maybe in ten years when he wakes up Tik Tok will be gone.
