    fake: no, I work for a medical consortium, there’s lots of doctors I’ve talked to just like this

    gay: he could be, he never said if he’s gay or straight. I hope he finds a lovely husband who bakes him cookies

      Actually why am I assuming the doctor is a guy?

      Not because doctors are automatically guys, but greentexters often are.

      Maybe this doctor could prescribe herself some E? I don’t know. I’m not allowed to practice medicine.

          Sometimes I reply to my own comments if I have something more to add. I do this in verbal conversation as well, a technique called “say more stuff, provide context, finish making the point.”

          It just feels more natural than editing.

        4chan user and used a drawing of a male doctor. I guess they could be in denial, but it’s poor form to assume if there’s not a really good reason to do so.

        It’s generally poor form to prescribe yourself medication. Some call it taking liberties. Others a fireable offense. I just call it cool as hell

        Afaik in most places doctors are not allowed to prescribe things to themselves.

        I want fresh-baked cookies made with the express intention of warming my soul and belly.
