  1. That's called an archetype. They're literally both the same character, the tortured misunderstood genius.

  2. When you remember how his leg ended up that way in the first place, it makes sense he would have issues with someone AGAIN making serious medical choices for him.

  3. Our workplace has an informal policy of not disturbing one another as long as it's 15 minutes or less. We work in a very loud industrial setting, and my rationale is if you're tired enough to sleep there, you probably need to take a nap for safety, as long as it's downtime where one would probably just be sitting, on their phone anyway.

  4. It is just too hilarious to anyone else, when he opens the drawer and the cat just appears?

  5. prosthesis are pain free... There is no phantom pain in modern amputation... My bilateral leg amputee father would like to refute these claims through his personal experience. In has case, he's NOT had his legs now longer than he ever had them. He's 78 and his injury was in 1961. To this day he'll occasionally have what he calls 'nerve pain attacks' where he swears someone stomped on his big toe, with the very real appearing discomfort one would have. It's kind of scary to see sometimes.

  6. I want to see Hugh Laurie play the 14th Doctor on Doctor Who, personally. Like to petition this casting.

  7. Maybe you felt you had to do that to make HER fit YOUR expectations? These things work both ways.

  8. I was thinking more like 5:41 myself

  11. I'm excited to hear his real accent as the Fourteenth Doctor on Doctor Who. Petition to make that casting happen!

  12. The one time I've been in the ER for an injury, with a group of friends who tagged along, I was fine with them taking photos, but the doctor doing my stitches was the one who we asked permission, and her response was only photos, no video. Which is disappointing. 15 stitches at something like $100/each, I should get cinematic quality footage on DVD with same day delivery.

  13. "You confused saving a life with doing the right thing..." WTF does that even mean, woman?! I'd expect a doctor to consider saving a life AS THE RIGHT THING in all cases, even when saving that life may mean doing the 'wrong' thing. How can you uphold your oath otherwise?

  14. That statement becomes problematic depending on how you define "doing the right thing". What if a law was passed that said all (insert race here) patients were to receive no treatment and were to be euthanized on the spot. If a person from that group came to Dr You for help, wouldn't the objectively 'right' thing to do be to treat their issue like you would for any other human? Or would the 'right' thing be to go "I'd like to help you, but I'm sorry the law is the law, HEY, there's one over here! Guard!" [racks rifle bolt]. Dr Mengele thought he was doing the right thing and advancing medical science when he was allowed and encouraged to murder countless twin children and other prisoners in WW2 Germany concentration camps, and the scariest part is that he actually did. Although the source is horrific much of the data collected from their horrendous, heinous human experiments is still used as a knowledge base today, because we won't test things like drugs or freezing or low pressure chambers on living, healthy humans until they die...but we can at the very least give those murders some meaning through using that data to save lives today. It's how we know how aspirin works, for example. It advanced our space program. It also led to the global adoption of medical ethics designed to prevent such atrocities from ever being allowed to happen again.
