"I didn't shave my legs, I'm sorry!"

"Uh, neither did I?"

I am sure there would be no negative repercussions to this whatsoever...

Have you tried messing with the pancreas?

It occurs to me that a cycling jacket with "Pit&Bull, personal injury lawyers" work on the back might sell really well.
I've seen one in High-Viz with (tiny letters) "be" (really big letters) "POLITE" on the back. Yes from a moving vehicle it could be mistaken for police, yes, what of it?

Just installed a new dishwasher.
The process involves NINE parts that are not included with the machine and has a list of SIXTEEN required tools.
This seems...suboptimal.

Also, it's an ARB for a patient on no other meds, you can probably assume we're treating hypertension. There's kind of a few options there good sir.

Believe it or not some of the sillier examples you give are better than what I actually get...
My least favorite pharmacy communication is probably "this drug is on backorder, please suggest an alternative." Sure, let me just come over and jump over the counter to see what you DO have...

I'm much more worried about heavy exertion in hot conditions than in cold ones (with some caveats-it's a lot riskier to fall and hit your head in the dark at -20 for example).

Wow, think I had too many sleeping pills for lunch. Which is strange since I had a Thai noodle salad, an apple and a cookie.

You should take them up on their offer and book a meeting at an inconvenient time, then ghost them.

Dammit. Hope all is for nothing.

I'll buy the excess Manchego and Rioja...

As a medical student I remember one of the ICU attendings (general surgeon, trauma team leader) declaring the rest of the team had to do all the CPR because he hadn't bothered to renew his ACLS so wasn't allowed to do codes, shrug.

Before realizing "wait, I can think of a few, I just don't consider them friends or associate with them much."

Oh, I do believe you (though I must admit I'd kind of like to see a source for the stats).
It is highly likely that "dudes with whom I get along" and "dudes who aren't entitled sexist A-holes" are circles with considerable overlap.
I admit my initial thought was "wow, don't know anyone like that"

I don't know exactly what refined products would be on tankers coming through the Strait, but I doubt it's jet fuel. In flight refueling is I think a pretty routine thing for air operations like this.

Hm, maybe I know a better than average cohort of dudes. On reflection the few men I know personally who are as described are the ones in the midst of getting divorced in part because of said behavior (who could have seen that coming).

I believe you. Thankfully I believe they're dying out over time.

Uniforms and other equipment don't fit is I expect the main one. But also fitting into vehicles-some are really tight.

Looks like a nodular BCC on the ear, too.
