Is his second opinion saga like the classic prank where you label three greased up pigs 1, 2, and 4 and let them loose on a high school? Or was the third second opinion book inside me all along?

The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far.

I like Hydrogen Peroxide Medical Miracle.

Amazon blurb:

quote:

Peroxides are supposed to be bad for you. Free radicals and all that. But now we hear that hydrogen peroxide is good for us. Hydrogen peroxide will put extra oxygen in your blood. There's no doubt about that. Hydrogen peroxide costs pennies. If you can get oxygen into the blood cheaply and safely, maybe cancer (which doesn't like oxygen), emphysema, AIDS, and many other terrible diseases can be treated effectively.

Intravenous hydrogen peroxide rapidly relieves allergic reactions, influenza symptoms, and acute viral infections. No one expects to live forever. When using H2O2, noted sensitivity to pollen and food allergens clinically improved. Improvement in allergic bronchitis, asthma, and chronic sinusitis. Discover how this miraculous healing agent works, and why the medical establishment wants to suppress it. No other chemical compound comes even close to hydrogen peroxide in its importance to life. Join Dr. Douglass as he reveals how this fascinating healer works to rid the body of disease.

So powerful that these days THEY tell you not even to use it on cuts anymore. Probably afraid your blood will get oxygenated and you'll realize Big Pharma's lies. Inject that poo poo right into your veins.

What's scarier is if they mean actual hydrogen peroxide and not the hydrogen peroxide solution you get at the store. That store stuff is 3% hydrogen peroxide and 97% water. Concentrated though, it's caustic and dangerous as all get-out. No touchy.

Reminds me of an “inspirational” quote I saw at work once by (I think?) Vince Lombardi to teach people better time management.

Hey, kiss my rear end and go suck a gently caress, Vince Lombardi. Some Boomer rear end time management.

I actually had a "discussion" with my foreman recently about this.

I work in construction as a union member and our CBA states that we have to be at our work location at 1400 (I work evening shift) filling out our safety paperwork exactly at that time.

Now normally this isn't an issue: get on-site, go to your work area, start writing. But I am working on a new 40 storey tower and of course my work area is on the top floor. Again, normally not an issue since the site has an exterior construction elevator (we call it a 'skip') that will take you where you need to go.

However I work in Canada, where at this time of year it tends to get a wee bit cold. We recently had a spell of -45C weather. The skip cannot operate below -20C. So I show up on the main floor to sign in at 1355 where my foreman reminds me that I have to be at my work location (on level 40) at 1400 or I'm technically "late".

I pretty much told him that if I'm expected to WALK up a 40 storey tower with all of my poo poo I am drat well going to get paid for it.

Thankfully he just laughed and said "That's fair" but it still irked me.

super effectively produces this society

in the fifth grade we were learning some basic anatomy stuff. the teacher proudly declared to the class that deoxygenated blood was blue, like a smurf. having more or less grown up in a doctor’s office i knew that this was incorrect so i politely informed the teacher that she was wrong and explained how it really works. she flipped her poo poo, then at her insistence the school sent me to be tested to see if i should be in special ed

i had never scored less than a 98 on a test in my entire school career up until then; i was in the gifted program (well, what counted as a gifted program in that godawful part of the south at that time); and the school just listened to her

What the hell

Deoxynated blood is blue, everybody knows this. The red colour comes from oxygen, which bonds with hemoglobin (which by itself is smurf blue, obviously).

I had something somewhat similar happen. I had a paper due for a class in 11th grade by a particular date. I handed it in to the (long-term substitute) teacher on that date before the end of the school day. He told me that, despite it being handed in by the due date, it wasn't handed in before the end of MY particular class time that day so he flunked me in that class for the entire school year because of it. Simultaneously, I was having clashes with my AP Chemistry teacher so I filed with the school to transfer to another science teacher. They approved. The next day, I went into her class after the school had given her the transfer paperwork. She called me up in front of the class, started screaming at me for trying to get out of her classroom, ordered me out of the room, and also flunked me for the entire year because of it. My parents, absolutely livid, called a meeting with the principal and other school admin members and let loose on them about their incompetent, vengeful, immature piece of poo poo teachers. The school said they "have to stand behind the teachers' decisions" so my parents said ok then we're pulling him out of your dumbass school run by vindictive, pussy-rear end imbeciles.

gently caress that place and gently caress those teachers. I still can't believe the school stood behind my science teacher flunking me for the year because she was pissed off that I got approved to transfer to another science classroom.

Maybe you had bad vibes.

Deoxygenated blood isn't blue. It's a less intense red that, when observed though the dual diffusing layers of veins and skin, makes the veins appear blue. The distinction probably muddled the elementary level lesson which is why the teacher didn't pause the lesson to give OP a special cookie for gifted kids.

No, that’s dumb and you’re wrong. Why are nobles called bluebloods then? It’s because they don’t need oxygen in their blood to live. They’re technically a different species and that’s why they have a divine mandate to rule over the rest of us. God doesn’t make mistakes and it’s just part of the natural order of things for our superiors to have lots of money and luxury as thanks for taking care of us
