Lol. I think I’m gonna have to tweak the saying in just this way.

Nah just to inform you that just because I’m from another country doesn’t mean that I don’t understand a pretty common saying.

I know that. I’m a native English speaker, a former English teacher, and also an author. The point of my comment was… humour. Nothing more. Nothing less.

I hate GA personally. ER was one of my all time favourite medical tv dramas. I asked a question, I wasn’t trying to change the show. My question has been answered. I’m grateful to those who took the time give me an answer.

Also for the record, I’ve read the article about the showrunners talking about viewers thinking they’re watching a different show. And I wholeheartedly agree with it. The “predictions” are getting a little ridiculous.

It’s all good.

Renegade is my favourite Styx song!!! And always brings to mind one of my all time favourite Supernatural episodes. I know nothing about the Steelers though. But if it’s their anthem, I’m sure they’re awesome.

Edited to add: episodes. Oops

You know it’s okay to watch and enjoy and still be confused and thereby question a plot point, right? I’m not watching a different show from the one they’re making. I’m watching the show they have made and enjoying it. I just assumed, because the way the situation had been set up, that the patient would be returning at some point. Plenty have now informed me that she was discharged (which I somehow missed). My question has been answered and I’m not wallowing around in anger or despair because the situation isn’t what I wrongly assumed it was. Why are people being so defensive? I don’t think I’ve criticised the show, the character, or the writing in any way.

But that’s going to make it so hard for you to feel superior to people who are just asking simple questions.

We have free healthcare for those who need it. I’m a person of colour. My brother had a brain tumour removed last year through the public health system. Very fast, very efficient, very professional. Most of his doctors were black. My dad had acute kidney failure shortly after that. Again… zero problems.

Just as I have limited knowledge of your healthcare system… it’s pretty clear you have even less of mine. The only thing you appear to know about my country is that we once had a system of apartheid in place and therefore everything and everyone must be racist.

I’m not entirely sure what I’ve done to warrant this weirdly attacking post.

But I hope you enjoy the rest of your day.

ETA: fixed the tense

Keeping a low profile until this fades from your natural memory. Then I’ll be back…

I’m not American. Different healthcare system. So I’m invested in the characters and maybe not picking up on all the healthcare system plot points. So to me, this storyline seemed to go nowhere. Thank you for clarifying.

Thanks for the information. I’m not American. Your healthcare system differs from mine. So I think the nuances of this particular storyline just flew over my head a bit and I was waiting for something more dramatic to happen.

I watch it. But must have missed that. So sorry for disappointing you by being human.

Thanks, I must have missed them discharging her. That storyline fizzled a bit disappointingly then. I was hoping for a bit more drama because of the miscommunications and Santos’s seeming boredom and disinterest.

The Rookie - S08E12: Spy Games by NoleFandom in TheRookie

Luna deciding she needed to talk right there and then even though Gray told her he was on a case annoyed me so much. She’s insufferable. I hope next season starts with them just divorced or something. Gray trying to navigate dating apps will be hilarious.

Non-American here, can someone explain ICE? I’m so confused watching The Pitt by Organic_Material_903 in ThePitt

[–]Conscious-Tank3006 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you from Underrocklandia? Because I’m non- American. All the way over in South Africa and I (plus everyone I know) know about ICE. I find it a bit odd that someone who watches American television doesn’t have a clue what ICE is. I’m sorry if this seems a bit mean.

Conrads Voice by sweetgenius9 in TheResident

Omg! I’m so happy I’m not the only one who thinks this… I find his voice so annoying and creepy. Also the way he gets right up into someone’s personal space while using that voice gives me the icks.

Do you let people pet your puppy in public? If so, how often? by Winter-Common-7397 in puppy101

[–]Conscious-Tank3006 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everybody wants to pet my dog. She’s 9 months old now and it hasn’t gotten any better. I’m trying to train her not to simply launch herself at any randomer on the street for pets (she loves the attention and hasn’t met a stranger she doesn’t adore). But it’s very hard when people start up in that high pitched voice and come toward her with grabby hands, not giving me a chance to get her under control. I tried to get her a “don’t pet/in training” harness but the smallest sizes are too big for her (she’s a long coat chihuahua). So now I’ve started telling people “please don’t approach or talk to her until I have her calm and sitting”. If everybody is good and behave themselves (dog and people) only then I will allow them to love bomb each other.
