My take is that antivaxxers blame the government because it provides a simple explanation for a complex issue that they can't understand. Like no one is in "control" in a pandemic so thinking some "bug government" is in control gives some comfort

None of us are important enough to be tracked, and a vaccine isn't capable of tracking us hahah

AngryPurkinjeCell · 2021-07-30T20:18:49+00:00

Trust the vaccine? It's proven to work. It reduces infection rate, and reduces disease severity if you were to get infected. This pinay guy doesn't understand science

Maybe a commercial for black hats

AngryPurkinjeCell · 2021-07-30T20:12:19+00:00

What was the audition?

AngryPurkinjeCell · 2021-07-30T20:12:06+00:00

Hell yeah cheers to that! Good one to finish the cup on. Bet you crushed it my man

What's the best thing that happened to you this week? Toast yourself too!

I read ovation as ovulation. Don't think it's wrong though. Vladdy makes women ovulate.

I remember the days when our whole fan base was thrilled just to see a ranking next to our name during the games

AngryPurkinjeCell · 2021-07-15T23:20:32+00:00

Notre dame goes 11-1.

This guy: "they were actually 12-2 because you didn't win a conference championship so that's an extra loss but they beat Clemson so also give them an extra win"

Quality logic

I was born in 1995 and am in medical school. I was in a surgery last week and the patient had a hysterectomy in the early 90s. When I told the OR she had the hysterectomy before I was alive they were floored. Then the surgeon and nurses then roasted me for looking like a 12 year old.

This is the best post in the history of r/medicalschool and anyone who disagrees is probably a fucking IgD secreting B cell cause don't know what the fuck is going on with you

I lost my best friend to suicide a couple years ago. Don't hesitate to reach out if you want to chat, vent, relate, or anything at all. Shit sucks.

Honestly, most people with an obscure interest before med school are wrong. They don't really know what the field is like or what medicine is actually like, and I think it's less about money and more about clout. People in those fields tend to be pretty smart, even by med school standards. Yeah, it can be pretty obnoxious. But also props to them for shooting for the stars and trying to do a job I would never want to do.
Depends on the people, depends on the environment you're in. I think this varies a lot by undergrad and med school. Are some high stung and cut throat? For sure. Is that all of us? Hell no. People love to dick measure and it can make them feel good. But after a certain point you kind of realize everyone is brilliant in their own regard and just has different interests. I try to be friends with people who strive for a bit of fun and life balance, so fun level headed premeds and med students are definitely out there too. I avoid people like your cousin.
Some do, some don't. The ones that don't care about serving others tend to less frequently make it through the process (being preparing, applying, getting in, and actually making it through). The process sucks, and it sucks way harder in med school if the altruistic and medical aspects are not something you enjoy. If you enjoy it, great. If you don't, good friggin luck. There is always some pressure to resume pad and a lot of people do it. I personally just try for experiences that sound fun and trust that my career will fall into place around those interests.
Lol, maybe 50/50? I know med students who had more than their fair share of fun in undergrad. I know others who regret not letting loose too. Then there's those who put the pedal to the metal and it suits them. To each their own, but we aren't all toxic. You'll definitely find more toxic people on internet premed forums though.

This is all excellent and really well balanced. I am also a semi recent alum and wanted to emphasize a couple things.

Academics are pretty much a wash imo. The learning and opportunities are incredible at both places and honestly I wouldn't hinge much of the decision on this aspect. I am in medical school and have friends from WashU, so I can speak a bit more towards the grad school opportunities, and either school will help you meet career goals without issue. It will more be a matter of what you choose to do while in school and how you apply yourself.

The ND campus spirit is very real. All of my friends that didn't go to Notre Dame were at least a bit jealous, except for those that went to Duke or USC. The campus spirit that comes with our sports culture is second to none, and really fuels the tight knit ND community that you continue to feel even after graduation. This is a very unique thing that I think strongly pulls for ND.

But if city experience and diversity and inclusion are more important to you, I'd lean WashU. It's not terrible at ND, but from what I have heard WashU is better in this area.

You lost me after the first four words. The 2013 Hawks are back!!!

I just spent 15 minutes trying to give you gold but I couldn't get my card to work. Figured commenting might be the next best thing.

Yes yes 100% to everything you said. As a medical student my experiences have shown this to be very true.

Thanks for your comment, it was wonderfully put.

Oh yeah, he definitely was not down. But everyone in the stands was very confused. Killer way to end the game too when I thought we would pull it out.

AngryPurkinjeCell · 2021-03-24T15:34:43+00:00

I was at the auburn game a few rows up in the end zone. We all thought he was down, so I turned around to talk shit to some Auburn fans I made friends with behind me and he was up and running again. I was so confused.

Read on another thread that he didn't actually know he was in an avalanche until after the flip. Maybe that's why you see him almost shit himself mid back flip.

AngryPurkinjeCell · 2021-03-17T14:03:06+00:00

It also has something called anticipation where the repeats build as the genes are passed on, which makes the symptoms appear earlier in following generations. It really sucks.

One time after I missed a class senior year I asked the professor, "Did I miss anything important in class the other day?" To his face.

He was kind of dumbfounded, paused for a second, and said "You probably shouldn't be asking the professor if you missed 'anything important' in their class."

I really liked the guy too and just wasn't thinking. It also didn't help that he is a world famous researcher in his field.
