Give some props yo!
Cuz this is how I roll! Er, uh, somebody does anyway. Not me personally necessarily. But I heartily endorse this method of rolling. Ya know? But now that I've thought about it some more, I don't actually need any 'props' to be given. I'm really not sure what that really means anyway. It could potentially involve theft from a movie set, or a theatrical production. In retrospect I'd just rather not be associated with that. So to summarize, no props. Thanks.

You guys certainly deserve props for rolling like that. Our family knows too-well how difficult it is to deal with those situations.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of props, am I correct in assuming the lab coats you wear are more because patients expect it than out of any genuine need to protect you clothing from spilled bodily fluids?
Yeah, lab coats are purely for status, (and raising patients blood pressure, the "white coat effect"). Which is cool, because we're the only people in the hospital walkin' around in 'long' lab coats that aren't doctors. The medical students, with 'short' lab coats, are always envious. But we, unlike them, operate independently - like a practicing physician, so that's our equivalent status.
ReplyDeleteThe actual physicians only wear them for status too. Whenever they have to actually 'do' something, they take them off.
Giving props is a shortened version of "Give me my propers" Like from Aretha Franklin's Respect. It's a good thing, trust me.
ReplyDeleteHuh. I never would have guessed. Ya know, for being so familiar with street lingo, I have no clue what the etymology is for most of it.
