Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

I'm pretty sure that in the background behind the guy is some sort of high tech machine but the sentiment of wanting to unplug and just walk away is one i've seen on here expressed by a few folks after working in tech

I think if you truly never want to touch a computer again in your life, you could find a job that would fit the bill. Probably not in agriculture, but maybe some parts of the service industry?

"Doctors hate this one weird trick!"

The weird trick: not cancelling your appointment.

That hardly seems like something they'd hate. No-showing seems more detestable.

I guess the implication is that they don't show up and don't cancel the appointment? I just saw it on Reddit and chuckled.

Yeah, professionals with full schedules tend to strongly dislike folks who blow off an appointment without calling.

I can't imagine a doctor ever hating vinegar or turmeric. Unless you overdose on it and give yourself kidney stones, anyway. But even then, you will be the one who hates that "one weird trick." Your doctor might be annoyed, but she will just shake her head and refer you to a urologist.

The idea that "farmer" is inherently something like "Old Order Amish" is obviously wrong and probably a problem.

Super-valuable misconception for Big Agriculture and politicians, though.

One of the worst misconceptions I deal with in my line of work involves fossil fueled power plants. The assumption is that coal or natural gas is better because it doesn't use any of the huge batteries, expensive electrical systems, or complicated computers that other, more sustainable power generation methods have. I hate to break the news to them, but...

...actually that's a lie. I LOVE breaking the news to them.
