I am happy to report that NOFX still kicks rear end. Saw them last weekend and it was a hoot. I got a potato thrown at me by Fat Mike and I threw it back and hit Erik which then pegged it back at Fat Mike.

I went to a punk in drublic show to see bad religion, oh and nofx was there I guess. I left after bad religion finished and it was a great show, but I was hanging out outside waiting for my friend because she really wanted to see nofx.

Fat Mike hosed up most the songs and was too busy telling lovely jokes to actually finish the set and someone ended up cutting his mic. I can hear it outside the event.

seriously why do doctors still open with "hi, how are you" when you walk in? every time I'm like "yeah I'm good thanks. well actually I'm not but..." and it's awkward

I'm a second year med student. We're trained to start with broad, open questions because it gives the patient the opportunity to talk and feel heard, plus there's a good chance that if you start broad and just let the patient talk, they'll answer most of the initial questions you have. Also if you just dive in with really pointed questions, you run the risk of missing details that could be pertinent to a diagnosis. Then there's also the issue that sometimes patients may not feel comfortable talking about their problem to anyone but the doctor. A couple years ago I was volunteering as a scribe in a free clinic and a patient came in with some mild but acute symptoms (something like frequent diarrhea). Then once he was past intake and triage, when he got to the doctor, he explained he was fine but had recently been experiencing erectile dysfunction and wanted to know if he could get a prescription for viagra.

Also your doctor knows if you're in the office, you aren't feeling good. You don't need to respond with a pleasant "Oh, I'm doing alright. But actually there's this thing..." Unless it's like a regular check-up, in which case "How are you doing?" is actually an appropriate question.

Thanks for the explanation, that makes sense re: the general questioning. However might I suggest for opening pleasantries, like as you're walking to the room, that you go with "hi good to see you" rather than "hi how are you?" because even though it's a doctor and I'm obviously there because I'm not well it feels rude to interpret "hi how are you?" as a genuine inquiry.

"Hi, good to see you [here in this office where you only come when you are sick]" also isn't particularly great imo.

Realistically, I also don't ask "how are you" unless it's a well patient visit. I'd instead start with "I see you were having problems with [chief complaint listed in the chart]. Mind telling me a little more about what's been happening?"

And you better have a real problem or you can gently caress off with your bullshit. If you're annoying you better be bleeding or I'll give you something to bleed about motherfucker."
