Problem is, they're telling you things that you need to make decisions about now, in many cases, not after you've gone home or to the library to look it all up.
Oh yeah? The post I replied to:
Is it really necessary to say "Mr.Smith, you have a serious condition called 'pneumothorax'", followed by an explanation when you could simply say "Mr.Smith, your lung has collapsed."?
Notice that "collapsed lung" and "pneumothorax" are NOT the same thing.
Also, I'm personally not aware of cases where something a patient needs to make a decision about isn't explained to them, and they've certainly not been part of this discussion until you went ahead and made them up.
As for being "lazy" or "dumb", you're just a flamebait spigot, aren't you?
Learn to fucking read, then get back to me on that.
If you know what pneumothorax is and cannot convert that to "air in the chest that is causing a collapse of your lung" then I doubt you have a full grasp of what it means in the first place.
I see what you did there, namely wanking over strawmen.
However, the post I replied to didn't say "X can lead to Y", but "X IS Y", and moaned. They, and I, assumed that "jargon" being followed by an explanation. See the stuff about "browser".
Nobody argued for using jargon and not explaining it, you nitwit. Have a dumb fucking day.
Just because you don't understand it doesn't make it unnecessary.
"Pneumothorax: accumulation of air in the chest leading to collapse of the lung"
"leading to" != "is".
Also, I kinda doubt a doctor talking to a patient uses "big words" to show they're smart, since at that point that usually is established. It is simply the more correct term. Like you say "browser" when talking to someone else, instead of "the window in which websites show up". You say browser, and make sure they know what you mean by explaining what it is. But you don't say something that's technically bullshit, just to appease them.
Also, some patients actually prefer not having their diagnosis watered down for them. Them being adults and all that. If that's not you, why not shut the fuck up? If you don't understand what they're saying and can't be arsed to learn, just tell them "I'm too dumb or lazy too understand, just do your thing please". And don't forget to say thank you, either, when they fixed your boo-boo.
stop inventing argot just so you can look smart
Argot? Bullshit. You're the conspirator in this case, by being proud of being ignorant.
I don't give a F*** about "climate change" or your opinion regarding my opinion.
Right. So why then do you bother to make up not only one, but TWO strawmen. Awww.
I'm confident that the average slave would have a neutral or perhaps even negative carbon footprint. That doesn't mean that I want 99.99% of the world's population to live in slavery for the purpose of "sustainability".
If your "call to action" is having a government bureaucrat rationing energy usage for the little people, you can go straight to hell.
Though I appreciate the irony: If we don't voluntarily ween ourselves from stuff like oil, our options will just keep diminishing. The only ones who have an interest to play for time are the ones in control right now, who will stay mobile even when the rest is flapping about like a fish on water. I dare say you're projecting what you're falling for on me. But hey, that's fine, that's par of the course.
It's more like a call to action, or at least observation and thought. If you think you're entitled to not give a fuck, you're wrong. Your current self-righteous calm isn't worth shit.
What's wrong with not using more than is there, and not destroying more than can re-generate? What, exactly, is wrong with that?
A while ago I saw a hax0r talk on youtube talking about the differences in security of the platforms, and the summary was basically "Google's business model is that you trust them with your personal data, while Apple's business model is in the markup of the stuff they selll.. protecting your personal data is not part of their business model". I tried to find that talk again, no luck. So take this with a grain of salt or two.
I'll start by installing dictators in the Middle East, and maybe sponsor an Al-Quaeda or two. Then I'll have church workers in South America hunted by death squads. Any other questions?
Before moderating... kindly actually read his posts and spend more than a brain fart on his motivation. That guy just keeps humping my leg, why not fling the fuck? If that makes you feel uneasy, why not run your yap as well so I can give your the very same. Don't be content with second-hand smoke when you can burn burn, yes you gonna burn:P
It didn't occur to me initially, but the longer I think about it, the more I think walking out on him would be really cool. Or maybe just sing songs, that sort of stuff. Throwing eggs just gets you jailed, and achieves nothing. Listening to his PR would be accompliceship. So it has to be something in between. But you know what? I'm sure that either the whole thing is a joke, or someone will come up with *some* dignified response.
Hurling insults? Walking out? You're a dumb fucking wanker, but you already established that on your first response. Now it's just a question of pulling your strings. Like this, for example.
In the other we get to see who the loonies and hateful are
Sure, but then what? Just keep watching on as they organize and openly salute? I'm not saying banning some things makes the problem go away. But it surely cramps their style. You say there is no immediate danger to allowing Nazis to come out in the open? I disagree so much, I don't even know where to begin.
Keep them separate, keep them on shitty underground concerts, let them drink themselves to death while ranting in pubs.
I kind of agree with the latter part of that. Do I really want to live in (and add value to) a world where being honest about who you are and what you think can turn out to be some kind of lethal mistake? No. So I'll either try and help changing that world, or die of that "mistake".
My youtube account actually is JohannLau, too, so I couldn't care less about this, personally (The comment function of youtube is a joke anyway). I'm not even exactly proud of a lot of what I post online, but still, I stand behind it... no wait, actually I don't, because anything that's older than a week hasn't got shit to do with me:P Unless I repeat it, that's water down the river, not the river. Others disagree, but others are fucking stupid, so that's fine.
But I still try to evaluate things based on their merit, not who says them. So I am fine with others being anonymous (though I am not a fan of AC's trying to get all creepy and personal towards people with accounts), and I wouldn't want to see that right gone. I mean, initially I used the internet with nicks and handles exclusively, that just seemed the normal thing to do, and helped me get to the point where I feel just as free posting under my real name. But I know that others might ALWAYS feel a bit shy, but still have genuinely something to say. Why take their voice away from them? I could never agree to it. I can't change it, but I can say fuck Google, once again.
I am dreaming of a world where we all voluntarily identify ourselves to each other, and share food grilled on the smoldering ruins of Google et al. Nothing more, nothing less.

wtf? "fish on water" == "fish out of water", obviously :P
Right. So why then do you bother to make up not only one, but TWO strawmen. Awww.

So? If it's already the warmest on record, how could that change over the course of the remaining year?
WTF?
That's your argument? That's what you pin your dumb fucking rant on? Hahahaha.
That just drives home even more how little teachers are valued.

I'd appreciate the irony, if it wans't like the fifth post with that pitiful stuff in it.
It's like Goebbels screaming in the sport palace how pacifists are the enemy.
Fuck you and the whores that rode in on you.

Thing is, you're STILL just projecting. Starting with your implication I'd wish harm on a fly, or calling me a clown ^^

Because Godwin said so? Who the fuck does he think he is; Adolf Hitler?!?

It's easier.
Right. Because all those different chargers cover wildly differing use cases, such as "charge battery" and "charge battery".
You wish it was nonsense. But you're kinda the weakest link.

Dude, that was tongue-in-cheek. So save me your strawmen, and peddle your BS elsewhere.
Prejudice doesn't even figure into it. Are you projecting?
Whatever helps you sleep at night, clown.
