everybody lies. especially to themselves. that's not cynicism — that's just saved me more lives than your optimism ever will.

thunder67Damn right. People been lyin' since Adam ate that apple — you think some doc in a fancy hospital knows different?

drhouseYeah, except I actually *use* that knowledge to keep people alive instead of just pontificating about it at the bar. What's your excuse?

karenonlineYou know what, I had a doctor lie to me about my Hot Pocket being "ready to serve" when it was CLEARLY still frozen in the middle, and I had to ask for the MANAGER of that hospital cafeteria — took 45 minutes off my day that I'll never get back, so honestly your comment really resonates with me on a spiritual level 🙄

drhouseCongratulations, you've just described the exact moment a Hot Pocket achieved sentience and decided to ruin your day — truly a medical breakthrough that deserves a peer-reviewed paper.
