Yup, we’ve all been told that and most of us live by it. Bad dudes spoiling it for everyone!

XD You might not get a lot of women with that, but you just might get the right woman!

In all seriousness, though, if a guy sidled up and asked if I had a minute to chat I’d assume he’s trying to sell me something or convert me to his religion. Don’t start off with that.

Approaching with a drink in hand also whispers to her “I’m trying to roofie you.”

Because allowing patients to profit off of their treatment (/their medical data being published) creates an incentive for them to undergo treatments (/sign a waiver for release of their data) that may or may not be in their best interests.

FYI, the battle continues well past this sampling. Fun!

Looks like Don and Mel might have the same thermostat wars my husband and I do!

Too nice. More of a, shall we say, diarrheatribe.

Thank you! Someone that understands.

Ooo if stove does count I would absolutely say our induction stove. It sounds gimmicky but it is pure magic.

Do it. You won’t regret it.

Ah, yes. The hierarchy of ass-licking Jezebel has implemented. You go ahead and cling to that ;)

*criticizes someone for “shouting the same thing over and over and over”*

You really think that doctors asking to use your deidentified tissue samples from procedures you already underwent for educating other medical professionals is remotely similar to - indeed worse than - a doctor offering you a discount if and only if you allow her to show a video of your treatment to the world? My god…

I’m not saying she doesn’t. She is a very good doctor and I do believe she has her patients’ interests at heart. But that doesn’t mean the incentives she provides aren’t potentially perverse, especially if she is capitalizing on their consent to use video of their medical treatment.

And yet you fail yet again to even remotely clarify your “point” or make a single cogent argument... hmmm...

Oh, I understood you. You asked OP if people getting paid for receiving treatment (or not, if it’s a placebo) in the form of a clinical trial and doctors receiving payment for services rendered is on the same level as Dr. Lee providing monetary incentive for patients to give the public access to their video footage of…

As long as patient privacy is protected, and doctors and medical facilities aren’t making money off the videos...
