Idiot Days

I think one of the marks of a good teacher is that you kind of, sort of, hate them a little bit when they ask you questions that you don't know, but that your hate is just as much at yourself for not knowing it

Best neurologist the world has ever seen? Are you going to beat out Freud? :)

Sigmund's goin' /down/. And I am totally going to make Hughlings Jackson my seizure-bitch.

You're disturbing when your ego rages out of control.

[lefthandsnake]

I wouldn't say it's out of control. I guess you could argue that I'm biased, but I'd say that an out-of-control ego means not knowing your limitations. Being motivated to be the best isn't a problem as long as you don't think that gives you an excuse to lord it over others, or think that you're better than you actually are.

Uh huh. ::insert bemused icon here::

Well, okay them. What advice would you give?

[beesandbrews]

Chalk the whole thing up to the over literalness of internet communication. Dry humor is just lost. This whole thing would have been much simpler if we'd been in the same room rather than two separate countries.

Amen to that. I hate smilies, but sometimes they just work, damnit. ;-)
