Right, WTF would a doctor know about medicine...
Given the number of times I've gone through cases where doctors screwed up treatment or had conflicting views regarding treatment, I'd say "very little." In this case, I was suggesting a different treatment.

My doctor told me the opposite of this, stay barefoot, to keep them as dry as possible and that putting lotion on them insulates the fungus from drying out.
I think your doctor is full of shit. But, that's just me. I've had plenty of cases of the foot, and moisturizing my feet helped out immensely, along with Lotrimin.
Right, WTF would a doctor know about medicine...
A doctor could still be full of shit. Have you never met a professional who sucks at their job?

Two guys in their 20s on the subday on Saturday morning around 10 am. One of them was blasting - and I mean blasting as hard as his Android phone's tiny mono speaker could manage - Russian rap while they were trying to talk loudly enough to be overheard over their own music while ignoring the bewildered dirty looks from everyone else.
Then to add insult to injury they started singing along to the Russian rap for a few minutes.
Bro...

I'm saying the chances that a DOCTOR is less correct than some random person on the internet at how to treat a condition said DOCTOR saw in person seems highly unlikely...

@Arkandel That's a crime against nature, right there.
No, I mean, the Russian Rap.
I jest, but as an opera singer I have an aversion to the language. So. much. back. tongue. tension. I can't even imagine how tight your larynx has to get to rattle off Russian in a rap-like fashion.

All things being equal, absolutely. I trust that the person I was advising isn't stupid enough to just take my word for it.
They'd think carefully. Consider it. And make their own decision.
I mean, unless you think @SG is stupid.

@Ganymede I had a Lady MacBeth episode last night and went to town with the exfoliating cloth, things are looking much better.
-
That thing when your husband knows he has asthma and allergies.
And he still gives the pet a bath without a face mask or any protective gear.
And then you're at the ER at 5 a.m. because he can barely breathe, you've had four hours of sleep, and have work in two hours.
Today is going to fucking rock.
-
@Vorpal Mine does this re: mold and dust and cleaning to the same ends... often, so, like, it's not like he doesn't know exactly what's going to happen. I feel you on this.
I am always tempted to offer to nail him up on a cross for a proper martyrdom if he really insists on continuing to do that.

Imagine that, right? Something worked that stripped away and dealt with all of the dry skin.
I love doctors. My brother's a doctor. But, no, doctors are not always right. And, if they were, he wouldn't have a job.

That's why they call it the 'Practice' of Medicine, because they're all still just practicing, they haven't worked out all the kinks yet.

The lady at the gym who keeps chatting constantly, apologising for things like "using a rubber band five feet away" or "lifting a kettlebell somewhere in the general vicinity" to strike up conversation.
It's 6 am. I don't want to chat. I just wanna do the thing so I can go to work.
I need my new earphones to arrive at the mail, dammit.

-
@Ganymede Would we be having this conversation in the rl-anger thread if she was hot?
Although in general at the gym I'm a misanthrope. I speak to no one, I just do my sets, take a shower and walk out. Chicks dig that, right? Right?
-
Your rhetorical question aside, I concur. I don't go to the gym to socialize.
Related peeve: if all you want to do is soak and swim slowly and lazily, don't fucking do it at the gym's pool. Sit your dumbass in a tub. Some of us are trying to do lengths, and we don't appreciate it when you drift your asses into our lanes under the fucking lane markers.

... and I took my ten minute break from work, went out for a walk, and a guy was run down as he was crossing the crosswalk right in front of me by this older lady.
I just spent thirty minutes talking to the police, trying to comfort this woman who was completely freaking out and crying and shrieking. The guy was DOA.
And a big 'Fuck You' too to you, Tuesday. -
....... I am not making this shit up. The insurance coding team just had to shut down because they got hit by a virus infection. Seriously, what's next, Godzilla?

Dear mister loudly-shouting, angrily-gesticulating, horn-honking guy in the car behind me: I am genuinely and sincerely sorry that you want to turn at this cycle of the light and cannot, but I am still not going to pull out into the intersection until I am certain the light won't turn red while I'm blocking it.

Bless you. Because fuck cars and buses that cross the street when there's traffic on the other side and get stuck there.
also, fuck pedestrians that don't look both ways before crossing the street in the middle instead of the actual corners. I almost killed a couple yesterday on my bike because they pretty much leapt onto the bike path in the middle of the block.

This is proper protocol. People crowding the intersection is what leads to gridlock.
