Yes, I remember those days before I found the light!

Poor prazmatic, so young, so ignorant of the ways of EM SDN....

 

[Hard24Get]

And for some reason, a simple search won't do as easily as you might think. Sure, you will catch utterances of the phrase, but not much as to the understanding of its origins

 

[Hard24Get]

Here, I'll post a link....

 

[Hard24Get]

Whoops, it's 10am - gotta workout before my noon shift! See ya! 😀

 

[iatrosB]

ah yes, the legend of Fatty McFattypants. I remember my early days on SDN, when I, too, wondered about the origin of this mysterious "Fatty McFattypants"

It is related to a program director being called fat somehow. It wasn't intended to be an insult, but was somehow taken as that person being called fat. I think another poster called apollyon's PD a fatty and so the legend began.

 

[iatrosB]

Was I, somehow, a Fatty McFattypants?

But yeah, at the end of the day, it's just our secret way of calling you fat...I mean PHAT.

Perhaps, Perhaps. But I hold in my clipboard a link to the thread that started it all!!!!


Do you?

I don't even own a clipboard 🙁

 

[Hard24Get]

I meant my computer pasting clipboard, though I also have in my possession a really cool folding clipboard that I got from whitecoatclipboard.com....

Yeah, I knew that

[Hard24Get]

Okay, okay -

Before I go, I will let you Potter fans take a trip into my pensieve...

Maybe we should change it to "Phatty McPhattypants." 😉

BTW...what if Ectopic really is dead? Aren't you going to feel bad?

 

[iatrosB]

BTW...what if Ectopic really is dead? Aren't you going to feel bad?

I was actually thinking of that...not that he was dead, but sick or really busy. Is there anyone who could check on him?

I was thinking the same thing...surely he would have written in this thread by now!

My EM cherry has yet to be popped... any takers?? 😉😀

Ok, who wears size 9 Biogels (or larger)? We got a DRE needed in room 1.

Oh you are cruel! I always comfort my patients by telling them I have slender fingers

Yeah, you should use 2 fingers to make sure that prostate is proper.

 

[Hard24Get]

Thanks, I will remember that for my extra "special" patients 😉

This thread sure quieted down after KentW raised the possibility of Ectopic actually being dead. 👎

Sorry, I've been busy.

Oh wait, who am I kidding. I'm on NEUROLOGY this month.

FM to Neurology...I hate you. You're not a REAL M3 yet! 😡

 

[iatrosB]

I didn't mean that....well sort of anyway. I'm just jealous coming from IM straight to surgery!

 

[Hard24Get]

FM, Neurology, IM, Surgery, all great fields. I just wanna do EM, though. 🙁

I hear ya. Good luck this year

 

[EM2BE]

Still no EF??? Maybe someone should contact him...

 

[EctopicFetus]

Sweet! Nice to see the new breed taking over after the new PGY-1's became slave laborers 🙂

Ectopic must either be dead or on an off service month.

EVEN better. Freaking vacation! Just got back late last night. I have a few more days off. I was in Europe with my wife and Family and as such didnt do much SDNing.

 

[EctopicFetus]

Seriously...fetus...where are you? I was hoping you'd impart some intern knowledge on us but you've been MIA since we all started residency.

Im back and willing and able to assist. Our new interns are also getting situated and I have been trying to help them out as well. BUt I am here for you guys too!

 

[EM2BE]

He's alive!!!!!!!

 

[EctopicFetus]

For my edification what was the initial title of this thread?

Thanks for caring. I just didnt have time to post prior to leaving on vacation. I worked a bunch of overnight shifts, then had a toin of crap to fix around my house and then left on vacation the next night. Had to get my finances in order etc.

Really thanks for caring.

 

[EctopicFetus]

He's alive!!!!!!!

Thanks! I am alive and will help close down this thread by the end of august! Come one come all and assist me!

EF, I'm glad you're alive and everything, but this is really just a . 😀 Welcome back!

 

[Hard24Get]

So glad you are alive and well! I can go to my nightshift now in peace!

As for the original title of the the thread it had - erm- something to do with SoCute

 

[Hard24Get]

And some frustrations she may have had towards your disappearance...

I cannot say more 😳

Can you point me to the quotes? PLease? Full me back in!

 

[EctopicFetus]

im gonna try to make up my padding over the next few days.

 

[SoCuteMD]

Hard24Get is blatantly inventing stuff. I said I didn't want another thread w/ my name, and we had been debating your whereabouts as we closed out the August thread. So this thread was named "Ectopic Must be Dead or SoCute's gonna kill him!"

But I refused to post in it until they took my name off 😀

 

[iatrosB]

Im back and willing and able to assist. Our new interns are also getting situated and I have been trying to help them out as well. BUt I am here for you guys too!

Now, i can sleep at night!

You should check out the last minute paddage in the last rearview mirror thread...you'd be proud! Of course, we did call you out in it, but still, you'd be proud.

Strong work...

 

[EctopicFetus]

iatros I will check it! I bet you guys made me proud..

 

[lucky_deadman]

What the heck.

 

[Dr. Will]

Fetus...glad you're alive and well. NEXT TIME TELL US BEFORE YOU DISSAPEAR LIKE THAT!

And I'm still dissapointed that the thread title was changed. If I'm around to make a title for the next thread it will incorporate SoCute's name and I won't be changing it.

Ahhh...another night off from ortho. You will hate the sound of your pager as an intern, btw.

Thanks will.

BTW the trauma pager at most places (like here) makes the ortho pager look like a joke.

 

[EctopicFetus]

now I will reveal my padding skills.

 

[EctopicFetus]

I mean at least 99% of my posts are pads.
