Poll question: What in the HELL is wrong with you?
My sweetie asks me this question alot.
I just usually reply, "Lots of stuff."

Do you ever encounter this question in your daily life?
If so, how do you deal with it?

14. How many concussions?
I've had four.

Or think I did, but I can't remember...

18. 3 that I know of, but probably others since I was pretty bad about
going to the hospital afterwards. These three were all cases where I was actually unconscious for a while.

19. Well, that's a pretty good record, I think, or I think I would think,
if I could remember what the HELL we were talking about...Where am I? Who ARE all you people?

Sounds familiar, doesn't it? If I'd know what those four concussions would do to my memory, I might have questioned the advisability of having at least two of them.

You?

27. Who said there's anything WRONG with alcohol?
Alcohol is fine, it's PEOPLE who have the problem!

Seriously, that question is really pissing me off!

And that whiney Christopher Reeve!

Wheel yer skinny butt to a job interview, hippy!

for the benefit of anyone who doesn't know how much I love my fellow DUer Dan)

20. That would count as an answer: OTHER: "I trust dicksteele blindly"
Obviously, you have MANY serious and deep-rooted
problems that are WAAAY beyond the scope of any
Internet message board!

28. Damn doctors. Always want to find something wrong with you.
Edited on Tue Jan-17-06 11:40 PM by Redstone
An actual conversation from 1978:
------------------------

Doctor: I'm afraid that you have MS.

Me: So why does that make YOU afraid? (I really said that.)

Doctor: It's not funny at all. You need to take this seriously.

Me: OK. What's the treatment?

Doctor: A course of steroids. Intravenously. Then wait and see.

Me: Do you have a gun?

Doctor: What?

Me: I asked you if you have a gun.

Doctor: Why do you want to know?

Me: Because that's the only way you're going to make me let anyone pump steroids through my veins. My grandmother had a knee that bent backward because of the steroids they gave her for asthma.

Doctor: What if I did have a gun? (He was a cool doctor, so this was turning into a Marx Brothers routine...)

Me: Then I'll go get a gun, too. Do you have a cannon? You'd better bring one if you think you're gong to make me do this.

Doctor: No. No artillery.

Me: Then no. No IV steroids. I'll take my chances.
--------------------------------------

Stay away from doctors!

Edited on Tue Jan-17-06 11:23 PM by Lars39
but when someone asks you that question, they are trying to invalidate or belittle you.
It's a *very* nasty power play. Just tell 'em to fuck off in whatever way suits you.

26. It took me YEARS to see it the other way!
I always assumed it was a MEANINGLESS INSULT,
because it usually is.

I was past 30 before I ever met someone who actually
ASKED that question because they really wanted an answer.
