  • I've got BRAIN damage....apparently...

    So yesterday I had a mole removed over my right temple. Today I've got a band-aid covering the stitches. It honestly just looks like maybe I scratched myself or something and stuck a bandaid over it. No bruising or swelling, just a bandaid on the side of my face.

    DD: "Dr." Dumbass
    Me:

    DD: (Rings bakery bell for assistance. Upon seeing me approach to help he yells) What happened to your face!?
    Me: Huh? Oh. Oh it's nothing serious, but thank you for your concern. How can I help you?
    DD: What happened to your face?!
    Me: Like I said, it's nothing serious. I'm fine. Thank you. How can I help you?
    DD: Help me by telling me what happened to your face!
    Me: (Thinking it's just a band-aid.) Sir, my face is fine. Do you need help with the bakery?
    DD: I demand that you tell me what happened to your face.
    Me: Sir, no offense but it's really not your business. Can I help you with anything in the bakery?
    DD: Look young lady, you've got an injury of some sort on your TEMPLE! You can't just stick a BAND-AID on it! You could have BRAIN damage!
    Me: Sir, please stop asking about my face. It's not relevant to my job or any service I could provide you with.
    DD: You need to see a doctor! I watch that House show a lot, so let me look at it. You could have BRAIN damage! (Reaches toward my head)
    Me: (Stepping away) Sir, I'm only going to say this one more time. Stop asking about my face. If you mention it again I will turn around and leave and I will not assist you. If you follow me, I will call my manager and have him escort you from the store.
    DD: Well FINE then! When you find out that you have BRAIN damage, don't come crying to ME! You're a very selfish girl, you know that?

    He pouts for a moment, then walks away.

    So...

    So watching House gives him both the medical expertise to diagnose your "brain damage" AND the right to butt into your business? Ugh.

      Well, he certainly did have ONE of House's major characteristics: He was an asshole. He was NOT however smart, much less had a bad leg... one of those you could fix for him.

          He also probably believes that if you can see Russia from your home it means you have foreign policy experience.

            I'm not a doctor, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night!

              Wow, oh my god this makes me think of another episode of Scrubs where Dr. Cox is teaching a bunch of interns who also watched House. I would trust John McGinley to look me over before I trusted any of the members of the cast of House, much less some idiot who only "watches a lot of it".

              I like how you're selfish for not allowing some stranger to put his greasy hands all over you.

                House is great, you just have to remember that the whole show revolves around unique, or at least one-in-a-billion, medical conditions. That, and it's fictional. Twits.

                  Then I should rent a house about a hundred miles east of here for a month, live in it, and put it on my CV.

                      Oh dear GOD I am tired of civilians who think they know from medicine.

                      I have a large mole on my jaw. I spent several years being told repeatedly I had (gasp) cancer!!!!!!

                        Seriously, why does he care so much? You're not oozing pus or blood all over the food, you're upright and coherent, why is he flipping out over a bandaid? For all he knows, you bumped your head on an open cabinet door. And it's none of his business anyway.
                        I don't have an attitude problem. You have a perception problem.

                          Exactly! If I had come staggering out, eyelids droopy, blood dripping down my cheek, slurred words, then yes, I'd hope someone would be concerned. But a band-aid? How exactly is that a big deal??

                          Also yes, it's not his business. That's really what pissed me off the most. I mean, after the first 3 times of me telling him it wasn't any of his business, shouldn't he have gotten the clue??
