My cousin’s dutch ex bf was really hot so I could make exceptions

My friend texted me saying she was stuck on a train for an hour and asked ChatGPT if she should get off the train. Idk how to respond to that. I have the screenshots, could post em if anyone would want to see, but how on earth do you abdicate you whole brain like that

The platform is here for discussion. Don’t cuss strangers out and be mean and then double triple quadruple down next time, it’s not hard

I had multiple classmates do this too and they were genuinely wonderful people. I think they heard it once as a tactic and decided to keep using it. Nothing against them but it’s terrible advice What if it was a psyop to make life more difficult for autistic people lol

This is absolutely fascinating. Still a bit dense ngl lol. It will take me some time to work through, I feel bad I’m not giving your write-up the time it deserves. Wondering, what would be your ideal solution? You basically wrote an entire essay for me and I’m half in love with you now. Talk my ear off about it anytime

You were rude to someone who was asking if something that bothers them is individual or common. You don’t think you were rude, which is nuts but whatever, but you were definitely rude to me

Woooooow. I dislike the Dutch now

I think they were talking more about someone who says your name unnecessarily in regular conversation but the Chinese name thing is so real. I’m half-Taiwanese and speak at a grade-school level but it irritates me so much when someone says my Chinese name wrong. Like just don’t say it if you’re gonna fuck it up

If your response to someone telling you you sounded mean is fuck you fuck you fuck you then you should look at yourself

Where are you from? Do you have a caste system? I’m in the US and I am pretty nice to patients and it’s rare that someone has a problem with me. Here we are called medical student or student doctor but it’s pretty clear we aren’t the ones in charge so it’s not like we’re tricking the patients.

I trained at a center with a majority population of Black and brown people and a lot of disadvantaged people, so I thought calling every man sir was a good idea, since it gave the implication I didn’t think I was any better than them. We have a long history of medical racism here. Or more rarely I do Mr/Ms Firstname

Doesn’t mean you have to say it repeatedly lol I know what my name is

Your response to OP was unkind and your behavior after was egregious. Think about your wording next time. You don’t know what others are going through and your desire to get the last word in could harm a stranger for no reason.

Bless you for responding sincerely, I appreciate that so much. I apologize if most of it has gone over my head but is there a movement to detach yourselves from the US?

I have been so in my own head lately and focused on my field of study that I almost feel like an alien. What does this mean in practical terms, how much is my data available to entities I’ve never heard of, can you tell me in practical terms what that means for me/the average person?

Tone matters and it didn’t sound sincere, it sounded like you were putting someone down. Immediately resorting to calling me a loser and telling me to fuck myself is telling on yourself. OP was talking about something a lot of people can relate to and you came off mean and condescending. They’re just trying to have a conversation. Sorry you react so poorly to differing opinions, you’ll have a hard and lonely life.

Anyway, not talking to you anymore, there are a lot of people who read some book like how to win friends and influence people and use that advice in a way that you can pick up on. If you feel something is sleazy and off you should trust that gut feeling.

I think in this case it’s more about them repeating your name. Feels fake.
In general I don’t use titles but at work I usually call men sir when they’re 50+ and I’ve never seen someone get bothered by it. It feels weird to go up to a stranger and say “Hi Brian, I heard you’re having chest pain today and I have some questions for you” or whatever. They don’t react negatively and seem to feel more respected. I don’t call women “m’am” because I know that can be irritating.
I think doctor only makes sense when you’re in a role at work. If you’re a visitor at a salon, don’t insist on it. If my boyfriend is booking a plane ticket he shouldn’t add Dr., but if he’s at a conference for fellow PhDs they should. If I’m at work they better call me doctor and not Miss or by my first name or I’ll be big mad

It’s not an unreasonable gripe and autism isn’t an insult.
Some people use your name too much and it does feel weird, like they’re trying to use their self-help book advice on you. “Good luck navigating life” is a nasty thing to say. Don’t be a dick

Asking out of pure curiosity–are you Canadian or a tech guy? Is Canada really reliant on the US?

Omg if I were you I’d be talking everyone’s ear off about this, that’s wild

The article is kinda shit and gives no information but usually there would be multiple eyes on the patient. You have at minimum the rotating nurse (not scrubbed in,) the scrub tech (sterile and knows every step of the operation,) the anesthesiologist or CRNA (wouldn’t have a good view of the site), and a resident or PA assisting. There would have been eyes on the patient, which is what makes it so confusing. Maybe the surgeon was intimidating and nobody felt they could speak up against him?

https://www.namd.org/journal-of-medicine/3293-surgeon-removed-liver-instead-of-spleen-family-says.html This article is better than the one in the post but doesn’t answer the big question, which is how many people had eyes on the patient?!?!? It’s difficult for me to believe that a surgeon with experience could make this kind of mistake without inebriation being a factor. The article describes the organ removed as “grossly” obviously a liver, grossly in this case meaning you can see it with your eyes and don’t need special tools. I can’t imagine making this mistake and I’m not even a surgeon I just went to med school. Absolutely insane case and I wonder how many other people this doctor harmed.

Totally agree and this has been discussed a lot. We learn about the Swiss cheese model https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swiss_cheese_model, I’ve read The Checklist Manifesto, we talk a lot in med school about listening to nurses and scrub techs and pharmacists…it goes on.
I’ve sat in on a lot of morbidity and mortality rounds. If there’s an adverse event it’s reviewed, and yes it can be very embarrassing for the people involved. We had a breast cancer patient who needed more exploration involving the axillary lymph nodes and an artery got nicked and vascular had to be called, and the next day she was bleeding significantly and had to be brought back to the OR with me, as the med student, holding pressure on her armpit. She lived. A few days later both attending surgeons (breast and vascular) had to do the Morbidity and Mortality in front of the whole hospital, and it felt like a movie.

This should be investigated exactly how you said but there is no way that surgeon was sober. Unless the patient’s anatomy was crazy weird, there’s no way that was an honest mistake.
