Doctors offices scheduling your next appointment will be like “Does 372 days from now at 10 am work?” Like ah fuck lads, literally just made plans with Jimmy to grab coffee in 372 days at 10 am. How about noon?

let the record show i am all in favor of "shit" and "damn" and "fuck" but at the same time, "oh brother" is just an extremely funny way to express consternation. i tried to look it the etymology and nobody seems to even know the origin. like, what brother? whose brother? my brother? your brother? all we know is that somewhere out there, A brother is going through it, apparently.

Like a half hour after taking pain relief meds: oh actually it doesnt hurt anymore i probably didnt even need to take those

I am slowly losing my mind over the shift towards video as the default media format.

I do not find this to be an efficient way to absorb information. I am bored and distracted by the time the largely unnecessary introduction is over. I can't use ctrl+f to find the specific information I'm looking for. If there are instructions to follow, I don't want to have to constantly pause and back up to the part I need.

At least give me a fucking transcript.

I can read faster than you can talk and these videos are wasting my time.
