Mass Casualties

A hospital scenario where a massive amount of patients come in all at once--possibly more than can be handled.

This then leads to a triage that needs to be done where the doctors put patients into categories, who needs surgery immediately, who can wait, and who's most likely to die.

There was a bad accident today and the hospital got hit with mass casualties.

Hardcore punk band originating in New York approximately ten years ago. Currently still playing, recently on a tour supporting Bad Religion.

The Casualties are the best punk band there is.

Just casually

Essentially meaning 'I'm just saying', 'just casually' is most often placed at the end of a sentence, often preluded by an idea or statement that is commonly accepted as truth. As a result, it is most often used following an observation. 'Just casually' is a light phrase that connotates feelings of ease to others, as it often has the effect of putting less emphasis on the matter/issue at hand.

Kim Kardashian is totally hot, I would so do her if I could, just casually.

Good street punk band. Music sounds good, but really shitty lyrics. I.e. anti-hippie propaganda, constant remarks on the style of dress, and basically a lot of "For the Punks" "Punks unite" and others including they're punkyness, and/or how much they support said punks.

Casualties fan #1~ Man, that The Casualties concert last night kicked major ass!

Casualties fan #2~Yeah! They sounded fucking awesome, and the mosh bit was fucking WILD!

Casualties fan #1~But too bad they can't write meaningful lyrics other then "We are punks, we are punks, we are, we are, we are punks!"

KICKASS BAND! Their music has got alot of the things I love: 130mph drums and guitar, bunch of screaming, no preppy fanbase! "Fashion punks"? Fuck that! They wanna color and spike their hair? Fine! Wear studded jackets? Fine! I think they're pretty good looking myself! Good music, nice style; it works!

The Casualties are not fashion punks. I REPEAT: THEY ARE NOT FASHION PUNKS!!

The Casualties

I'll quote them, you make your own decision:

"My mind is not for rent, I won't listen to what you say
You better take a hard look, we are sick of your rules"
("Proud to Be Punk")

yet in another song they say

"Punk has gone through changes
From spiky hair to long
Now anyone can say
They're into fucking punk"
("kill the hippies")

Constantly do they make mention of how they look or how they dress:

"Steel toe boots
Spiky Hair
We Dont Care
Punx & Skins"
("Punx & Skins")

"Boot boys mohicans with studs & spiky hair
While others have the same fucking patches and roll in the dirt"
("way of life")

"Spikey hair with soap
You don't like us at all"
("Die Hards")

"So you hate the spikey hair?
I'll grow my mohawk and make you stare"
("Punk Rock")

"You Always Put Us Down
Because we spike our hair
Bondage trousers and dyed hair
I'll never change my ways"
("For the Punx")

Why say The Casualties suck, when they can do it themselves?
