That's the kind of stuff that just deflates. What other place could you be and comment about kicking, punching the person trying to help you. Say that to your plumber or mechanic and he'd probably throw you across the room. We're supposed to laugh 'cause it's so damn funny. ■ Timmy G Member Since: 04/14/02 Post: 47 of 65 3/27/2019 I'm not patient with those types of patients anymore. Tim is right. It's an incredibly terrible thing to say to someone trying to help you. If my patient said that to me, we would have a come-to-Jesus moment where an apology is in order or the patient would leave. I hate that kind of crap. ■ davidpalmer Member Since: 04/14/00 Post: 51 of 65 3/27/2019 Glad to see someone else feels this way. Every time I get offended in the operatory, I always have that question: Am I being touchy, or are they really being an a**hat? ■ ToothNinja99 Member Since: 01/07/10 Post: 53 of 65 3/28/2019 Don't let stress get the best of you!
