This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

She has a PhD in this field, dude. Just admit you looked some stuff up, and she would appreciate that.

Just be happy I’m not calling you Rocky Mountain oysters.

How did you know?

Also, it's actually capital Oysters, thank you.

If denizens of that website we capable of genuine humility, we'd be in another timeline entirely

There's another timeline, where it's like you wrote. Genuine humility all around.

We just don't happen to be in that timeline.

Doctors hate the Google patient crowd.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I really don't like this attitude. It's just smugness about medical knowledge, because it's often paired with a hate for people that come in for things that are easily googlable... Directing people HOW and WHEN to do research would be so much more productive for a working doctor-patient relationship.

It's about the patients who think they know more than the person who went to school for like an extra 8 years and did hundreds of residency hours, because the patient googled some shit for 45 minutes.

2014? That's some wine vintage in there.

Legit though, if you have balls, you should be able to have a useful discussion about their health with your doctor. Don't need to memorize every single part that's involved, but the general anatomy, basic functions, and for fucks sake how to check your balls for changes.

This is true of every part of your body tbh, but the balls are pretty damn simple to read up on. You can get the basics in an hour. Seriously.
