057. Diagnosis

Shut up. Shut up. Will everyone shut up. Playing doctor is fun isn't it? Playing doctor when there is no authority? Not only is that dangerous and likely not the fun sexy kind, it is stupid. To anyone who is ready to believe in something because it is on the network and a nice person said it, the consequences are all yours. Enjoy.

Let's do this the old fashioned way. Screw vaccines, screw advice columns. You're sick? Consult a doctor. Can't get out of bed? Call a doctor to you. Still incapable of that? Get someone to get a doctor. You're ill. So what. You're not a victim unless you act like one. Have dignity. And those of the medical community, your bleeding hearts and boredom are showing. Better get that checked. Chase could do better. That is an insult to let you know.

That survey that my name as attached to? Hypothetical vaccination. You know, data gathering before hand? It's something that intelligent people do. After which comes a process of study. A long one. Do you people really think that the process is fast? There is a testing period too.

Cold weather has a tendency to enhance preexisting medical conditions. I'm taking a taxi to work from now until March.

No one's going to listen to you. They're all to bloody stupid.

This would be my reference for the part where I say "I told you so" for later in our program.
eiremagic: (Eden - did anyone else hear that? Good.)

Well I listened to you.

Let's mark this occasion. I'm having cake tonight.
eiremagic: (Eden - doubting that very much)

So how sick are you?

[identity profile] vicodincrutch.livejournal.com 2008-11-08 12:20 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not. I want cake. You did something that is worth a slice however rare it may be.
eiremagic: (Eden - hrm)

[personal profile] eiremagic 2008-11-08 12:22 am (UTC)(link)
Fine. I'll bring you a cake.
eiremagic: (Eden - can care too)

[personal profile] eiremagic 2008-11-08 05:37 am (UTC)(link)
I don't get sick.

And yet you're buying the cake. You're either sad, pitying me or getting ready for a bribe besides wanting cake.
eiremagic: (Eden - regain a sense of wonder)

Maybe I like to make sure you don't bitch at people.

There isn't enough cake in the world. I hope you know that.
