Dog dad, bike rider, CRNA school goer - I already know how to put people to sleep with bad jokes, now I’m learning to use drugs.

Yup. But also should we be surprised? What percent of doctors are gen x or boomer white men?

Had the displeasure of spotting this sign in the anesthesiologists’ office. In a hospital where countless people are getting themselves into loads of debt by merely seeking medical care. It’s such a disgusting sentiment and also just a really really stupid joke.

And probably more common, since I played it even more, is him dropping a “well, what can I do for ya?” a la Griswald the blacksmith from Diablo.

I was also a big Warcraft 2 fan. And I played it do much even my dad picked up on some of those. To this day he’ll still occasionally bust out a random “stock rocking the boat, you’re making me seasick”

I absolutely love the CRNA who teaches my regional anesthesia class. “Most people call this a boat, but I think it looks more like a narwhal.” He’s just the most delightful person.

Funny you say that because one thing I didn’t anticipate in the realm of anesthesia is the amount of time I spend walking around with syringes of Versed and fentanyl just hanging out in my pocket. I’m so terrified I’m going to forget it’s there and leave one day I tap the pocket like 100x per hour

At the time I didn’t think much of it; I was too busy not caring about anything. But as time went on I was like um isn’t that a distinction without a difference? Do you think offering me a way to treat my pathologically short attention span (aka ADD) may have impacted my life positively?

When I was in college (right out of HS, years before returning for my BSN), I was failing classes & felt very indifferent about it. My parents wanted me to do a neuropsych eval for ADD. I was told, “you don’t have ADD, you just have a short attention span.” I still think about that. Like wat?

I don’t understand how Google decides what words to bold in search results anymore. The words it did bold are not in the search bar, yet the direct quote that it successfully found is not bolded?
