There's a conversation between retards going on
Only doctors will get this one, but I had a colleage who saw a perfectly healthy 22 year-old portuguese/creole-speaking african man who had come with a pain in his chest. This man had no past medical history apart from being a victim of torture in his home country.
This doctor misinterpreted his ECG, which showed the normal variant known as high takeoff (commonest in young, thin males due to lower impedance of chest), as signifying that he was currently having a heart attack.
When I told her that this was a load of bollocks, she countered with "Oh, but he was tortured!".
Even stupider was the doctor who then accepted her referral to the medical team....

back in college i was scrubbed in with the chief of surgery and the 'surgical chief resident'
the idiot resident pointed to the female patients' (very large and fatty female) uterus and referred to it as the fucking gall bladder
the chief caught it and bet him 100 bux it's not the gall bladder
instead of backing down the resident continued to argue that it was the gall bladder
so the chief laughed and and of course rubbed his face in his shitheaded stupidity and wanted his 100 bux
a heavy sense of disbelief filled the room
painful to witness ...

All of your statements about me are retarded assumptions based on your own idiotic arrogance. You act like you're just trolling me, but isn't it odd that you act the same way towards pretty much everyone on the forum?
Hey, maybe it's because you actually ARE a pompous prick!
