Should the idiots who make the DSM add "pre-med neurosis"?

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
someone should take away your thread making privileges.
 
nvm....Wikipedia answered it

They seem to think mostly anything else is a mental disorder, so why not?

Lol...wait...you called the people who write the DSM idiots? Compared to who?
 
Yet we continue to bump it by posting our disapproval, lol :laugh:

Must be some kind of primitive shaming ritual... :laugh:

Australian accent: "And now we see the pre-meds in their natural state. I gotta be quiet, because they are quite easily frightn'd. Notice their characteristic emoticons. It is believed these evolved to cloak their intense insecurity."
 
Word up. Also, it serves a good dose of public e-humiliation. Everyone just comes to this thread and then reads about how terrible it is and how it seems that all of the OPs thread have the same characteristics, lol

EDIT: Live, you beat me to it, lol

Probably compared to himself (the OP), but who knows... that's not very believable. Oh well... as fate would have it, the OP will probably end up w/ a USMLE score forcing him into a psych residency and end up competing with prescribing psychologists in Louisiana for patients... and finding himself woefully inadequate b/c they actually developed people skills during grad school.... (note: no, I don't support psych rx at their current level of training; it's dangerous, but still...)

Well if the people who made the DSM are "idiots" then I'd hate to think what that makes you.

The OP should frame this in gold and place in his bathroom mirror to stare at as a reminder at least twice day. (You do at least have proper hygiene, right, OP?)....and stop making stupid threads, although they are admittedly somewhat entertaining on occasion...albeit, mostly at his own expense!

how can i develop a good vocabulary like urs so that i can sound loquacious during my interviews for med school?
Click to expand...

umm...you want to sound "loquacious" at an interview? intelligent? yes... but loquacious? At least to me, that word has a neutral to slightly negative connotation to it (i.e., vomit of the tongue) and a loquacious person at an interview probably wouldn't do as well as one who is succinct in their manner of communication. You sure you know the words you're using?
 
Random thought: Has anyone else realized that the OP's username is a reference to an N.W.A. song?

It makes him fail even harder.

Pump the breaks. While it is stupid to use lyrics as your username, lets not associate n.w.a. with failing. Without them, we would not have Dre, MD or ice cube

All rap/Hip-hop = FAIL

I listen to everything and anything but rap and hip-hop, so no, I don't have a limited taste in music.

Just a bad taste in music. Hip-hop is the music of our generation. You might think you're real cool cause you only like Neil Young and Bob Dylan, but you'll be well served listening to Biggie and KRS-One.

Argumentum ad populum. Just because a lot of people listen to it does not make it good.

That was a cleverly loquacious way of putting it.

Please look up the word loquacious before using it!

If that were a loquacious way of putting it, Sammich would have written far more albeit said less. Such is the way of a loquacious individual, to say little with many, many words. Many a loquacious individual would never pass an interview for medical school for sake of time, albeit, if one could, that loquacious candidate would talk a person's ear off.

(Sorry, in my boredom/procrastination, I couldn't quite resist...)

Do you really think you're so smart because you can look up the definition of loquacious? I was mocking you, smart alec. Are you that thick-skulled?

This was my way of mocking, lol I'm well aware of it's definition. I just forgot my [/sarcasm] brackets 😀

haha, wasn't quite sure anymore. maybe that really is too big a word to use on an anonymous forum. wait... I wasn't the one to use it initially. lol...

(and goldandatroll, I didn't look anything up. not that it matters. so how long you planning to troll here? have you figured out where you plan to be made a mockery of next?)
