There’s a group of people that are really upset that this is on the internet, honestly we’ve so soured on the use of shock imagery in general that in some countries like Sweden we’ve formed a small political party. Just look up the “Lemon Party” to see our plans on what to do about these sort of shock images.
Yeah, I was a bit slow there.
Sorry, it was a joke that needed quotes, the “friend” was me. I find it vile and only good as an ingredient in other things like deviled eggs, not as a sandwich condiment itself. I am glad others (like my wife) like it, but [*shivers*]
That’s true for Miracle Whip too, and that stuff tastes like goblin cum (or so I’ve heard from a “friend”).
Look behind you, a Three-Headed Monkey!
Probably different if there’s a justified direct connection between the procedure and necessary care to preserve life.
I understand that thinking if you’re under a certain age, but I promise you, they’re not. Go look at J. Michael Luttig or Sandra Day O’Connor.
So instead of providing one example, your response is “do your own research”?
Ok.
What about if George Carlin didn’t vote in this election…
I’m pretty confident he won’t be. And to make an assumption about his hypothetical practice in a situation he never encountered is simply ascribing your views to his with a false veneer of authority.
Oh, I’m well aware as my other comment indicates.
I knew I was going to get every downvote I got. He’s got an Elon Musk-like cult of personality in some tech spheres and even implying that he’s not 100% right will get dogpiled by white knights.
I had the same experience as you and there were at least a couple opportunities where I had close acquaintances that actually knew more about topics that were more outside of his wheelhouse who confirmed that he was just regurgitating things that were common misconceptions or “close, but not quite”-type inaccuracies but doing it as though he possessed absolute authority. I’ve even seen others try to correct him on those in the past when they knew more and his responses were not the way one responds when you’re actually interested in fact over the art of the diatribe.
I don’t have anything real negative against him and he’s definitely done quite a few things that end result in a positive improvement, but I’m also thinking he’d probably benefit from a bit more humility.
