being a dentist would be an insane power trip. you get to riff and talk about whever you want in a one sided coversation... while inflicting physical pain and discomfort on people. you get to talk out your issues while doing your job and really the only question you ask under duress for all the torment you provide is "how often do you floss" and you know the answer is going to be a lie.

Animal Friend posted:being a dentist would be an insane power trip. from personal experience if the dentist actually wants the conversation to be two way your appointment will take forever (I had a some weird appointments when I worked at a startup making a digital impressions 3D scanner. I left before any trials started but I did put that dentist in touch with the… idk what the title we gave him was but the dentist the startup hired part time because they really wanted in the stage ii clinicals or whatever) hobbesmaster fucked around with this message at 18:56 on Mar 25, 2023 |

Ciaphas posted:feeling envious rn; i've had dozens of fillings, multiple crowns, and thankfully only one root canal. my gums're mostly ok at least but my enamel is just fuucked. probably mostly on me, but my dad has bad teeth too so that's my excuse some people are just generally more prone to cavities, even if they have perfect hygiene

Animal Friend posted:being a dentist would be an insane power trip. my dentist owns in part because he doesn't talk much during appointments. I dunno if it's because he intuits what diff patients want in that respect, or if he's just a kinda quiet dude, but i greatly appreciate it either way! he does take some time to explain exactly what he's gonna be doing before he does he tho, which is also greatly, greatly appreciated. just a real good dentist all around, imo. i get really anxious getting my hair cut because of the small talk tbh, but mostly because i still don't really understand how i want my hair cut or how to say it. i've had it explained to me several times, stg, but it just doesn't stick in my brain.

Where I go, for normal appointments the dentist only comes in for like 2 minutes. The hygienists don't really talk to me much either though.

I guess it would be a problem if I ever wanted to do something different but I just don't do that  I also just don't make "small talk" while getting my haircut at all so maybe try that, lol. mystes fucked around with this message at 00:10 on Mar 26, 2023 |

graph posted:idk but if i was in a forum where a couple old dudes were borderline creepily obsessed with me i'd leave too. ah well SA's not exactly good for people without the life experience to recognize and ignore bad advice. Or the tendency of people to try to prepare for disasters after the fact. We're collectively recursively obsessed with the "right" way to do things, and all of our ideas of what that is are really loving weird and disconnected from reality, but we probably wouldn't have ended up on SA if we had figured out a way to live that's acceptable to both ourselves and the society around us. Reminded me of myself. Reminded me I had a few bridges left unburnt, too. Refreshed my drive to be unkind to people for the right reasons. Remembering why made it a fair bit less unpleasant. I hope the reason they're not posting is because they've got better things to do.

mystes posted:Do you mean "but we probably wouldn't have ended up on SA if we hadn't figured out a way to live that's acceptable to both ourselves and the society around us."? (Guessing since you started that clause with "but" but I might be misunderstanding your point.) ... the point is that SA posters are by and large maladjusted and bitter. We understand we shouldn't be, so quite a few of us try to pretend we're not, and most of my gimmick is just accepting how broken I am and not trying to fix it if I would just make things worse. Insisting I have any odds of being normal and nice is the it's just a little airborne of mental health and it was driving me crazy. Our moderating staff are lunatics with constant scandals, nobody here is a good judge of character, and we fit into society's expectations like ice cream fits in a stew. This place is very weird and usually not in a good way.

endlessmonotony posted:... the point is that SA posters are by and large maladjusted and bitter. I disagree. SA posters are by and large normal people. I've met a number of goons in real life and all of them were just regular folks, maybe a little on the dorky side, like me. There are certainly specific subforms here that are loaded with maladjusted and bitter people, and those posters tend to be extremely noisy and prolific, so perhaps that's why your view is a little skewed.
