I don't think so about beauty and brains. everyone has different standards but there's a significant amount of attractive women in my class. definitely higher % than undergrad. if they can get into medical school, they're smart enough for me for sure.
Now if they could only change their personalities to not be as stuck up and full of themselves, and they would be golden.
 
Nah. Attractive women will be held at even more of a premium than they are now
No, I realize that, but I think what is considered beautiful will perhaps be more inclusive. I don't know about you, but it's hard for me to consider an obese women beautiful. But, at the rate things are going, beauty may have to include being fat, otherwise there would be so little beauty in the world practically everyone would be considered ugly. But yeah, the very few non- obese ones will be held to a premium, until of course, being obese becomes the only beauty, and physical fitness is frowned upon.
 
cant speak for clubs as I stay away from those as far as possible, though I have heard Miami clubs are also douchey

Every time I go to the tri-cities area I say the same thing when I want to go back to west coast, I am more of a southwest type of guy. Maybe I might be the first redneck South Asian cowboy. Like I said before visit San Diego or Monterey Bay, you'll enjoy it and if you feel homesick, there are a lot of Indians working at Qualcomm haha.

Been to both of those places, still would take my NYC over them. But I was born and raised here, I'm a grouchy jaded cynical New York girl.

South beach clubs are the woooorst

You must just really love snow and overcrowded cities.
 
And if you don't know the person, and they are just trying to be nice, then?
That has never happened. If you are approaching a stranger it's not because you are trying to be nice it's because you are trying to get with them.

agreed.

Exhibit A: There's an actress named Stana Katic from ABC's Castle who is one of those few celebrities that avoids the bad press in the Hollywood tabloids and is very modest. When she got a nose job and slightly tanned her skin, her spotlight in Hollywood went up because of her beauty despite her previous acting being A+ worthy (at least in my opinion)

Derm this is really off topic but I really got to ask this. In your avatar does the nose of the super adorable baby have a burning sensation or is it just a pigmentation disorder thing (unless this is one of those HIPAA things)

It's an infantile hemangioma. And yes, it's a super adorable baby, that's why I chose it. lol.
 
Are you really into pediatric dermatology?
Yes, it's gratifying to help a child, IMHO. If you just want to hack off skin (due to skin cancer) all day, then you do Mohs.
 
Maybe not the best comparison but a health care practitioner working in NYC is like WW1 trench warfare, to gain a lot of territory (fun) you gotta to lose a lot of soldiers (money) over a small area
You're totally right. Sometimes I wish I could just ditch the 8 bars and 3 nightclubs down the block from me. I'll move to a farm, make my own moonshine, and go cowtipping. Much cheaper.

granted NYC is a "you get what you pay for" type of city but there are other cities that have "happy" people too

Austin, TX
Dallas, TX
Phoenix, AZ
Denver, CO
New Orleans, LA
San Francisco, CA
San Diego, CA
Seattle, WA
Atlanta, GA
Washington DC
Boston, MA
 
Read what I wrote again. If I know you and I know you are just being nice I take it as a compliment
do I know you.
if I was at a party with you I would totally throw a sexual remark at you, that's all I do in nighttime social events.

Get lost man. You don't know me and I'm not interested.

Why does anyone need to be freaking sunshiney happy all the time? I quite like being grouchy and sarcastic at baseline.
 
Although the "OMG I'm so drunk walk me home?!?!?!" routine works pretty well too. Heh
most helpful post by far, to all sdn homies.
See, fancymylotus teaches so we don't miss the next chance.

I love Austin, besides the fact that it's a college town.

Others:
Knoxville, TN
Omaha, NE
St. Paul, MN
St. Louis, MO
Charlotte, NC
Sioux Falls, SD
San Antonio, TX
Des Moines, IA
Charleston, SC
Colorado Springs, Co

Just some that come to mind. I've been to all of those cities and everyone Ive met from those places are pretty happy. The cities themselves just kind of give of a happy vibe, mostly.

How does MN treat docs? Thinking I'd enjoy living there or somewhere nearby.

In terms of compensation, it's one of the best states/regions overall. It pays some specialties better than others but everyone does pretty well there. You get a lot of liberal Scandinavians up there who probably think doctors make too much but the people are so nice. They're very welcoming, social and friendly. Just beware of the freezing winters. It right next to Canada after all.

I enjoy that, slope game off the charts. Not really but it's decent.

Yeah, there's some pretty good skiing in Minnesota, although it's not my favorite. You could also go up to Canada if you like. Best skiing in the U.S. is probably in Utah, but that's just my opinion. Colorado is pretty sweet too.
 
😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😡:yeahright::rage::punch:

is what these lists of happy cities make me want to do
I'm assuming you're list would be as follows:

1. New York
1a. Manhattan
1b. Brooklyn
1c. Bronx
1d: Queens
1E. Long Island

Colorado is another possibility, utah sounds cool but it's the origin of like 96% of cults in america, so that's always a struggle.

you put Brooklyn and long island and queens on that list!? long island is a garbage dump, queens is not much better, and Brooklyn is just..Brooklyn. ugh, you really are a Missouri boy. just...no. the Bronx can stay bc I was born there. NYC bc I live there. the others need to be immediately removed. kthanks 😀

I don't know much about Colorado, but I've stayed in Denver before and it's pretty cool. It's got some nice suburbs too. I forget why I stayed in Colorado Springs but it had amazing views of the mountains. The city itself though is ugly as ****.

I'll admit I've never been to New York, but for a Missouri boy I'm pretty well traveled. I was just making a joke about your list though.

I know. I'm just crabby because I haven't actually eaten anything today besides 39048304 cups of coffee and I have to be at work for another 2 hours. Like wtf.

Scuse me? The Bronx over Brooklyn? I don't think so.
 
Or we could do as Alpinism did and take it as a compliment and not make a federal case out of EVERY slight. If you're going to be easily offended by what people say, then the population you will be working with during residency at an academic medical center (Medicaid) will drive you nuts.

Are you kidding me?? You think a strange man yelling across the street for a woman to get on her knees is a COMPLIMENT?!?!??!?! Yeah sure, if a rando says "hey pretty lady" in passing or whatever, that's not something I would make a big deal out of. But what @Doudline described is so far off from a compliment...

I was talking about her co-workers at her office. Not some homeless people on a bad street.

Queens is awesome 😡
 
All y'all keep talking about different states, but in the end, America is America, it's all the same. And tbh, I just want to go back home to India.

I plan to retire early so I can get to India faster.
 
No there isn't so stop being a baby. You not coming here would be nice although you seem to think of it as a threat to our wellbeing.
There's a black kid in my school who jumps right on top of anything with hint of anything that isn't 100% pc. We had a classwide meeting with the administration due to a Facebook post that was relatively benign just because he took offense. He's rather unpopular

Ugh, they are indeed cringeworthy. The overly PC police makes people in their same group embarrassed...
