A Blog detailing the insanity of my medical practice and the stupidity of everyday life.
Welcome to my whining!
This blog is entirely for entertainment purposes. All posts about patients, or my everyday life, or anything else may be fictional, or be my experience, or were submitted by a reader, or any combination of the above. Factual statements may or may not be accurate. I could be making all this up. I may not even be a doctor. The only true statement on here is that I probably drink more Diet Coke than you do. A lot more.

Cast of Characters:
Annie: My Phenomenal MA
Mary: My Awesome Secretary
Ed: The office fish
Dr. Pissy: The guy I share an office with
Mrs. Grumpy: My Boss (also the world's greatest school nurse)
Frank, Craig, and Marie: The Grumpy Tribe
Garlic and Riley: The Grumpy Dogs
Questions? Comments? Biting sarcasm? Write to: pagingdrgrumpy [at] gmail [dot] com
Note: I do not answer medical questions. If you are having a medical issue, see your own doctor. For all you know I'm really a Mongolian yak herder and have no medical training at all except in issues regarding the care and feeding of Mongolian yaks.

Well...maybe it's a not-so-smart car :)
Your too picky.
No one speaks English good anymore.
so tired of seeing stoopidity in public.
consult a dictionary, eh ?~!
Proving once again that using 'spell check' does not confer 'smarts'.
w/v: thinker (best part of posting comments here!)
No credit? No problem! Bad credit? No problem! Not knowing the difference between "your" and "you're?" No problem!
My absolute pet hate in all grammatical errors!
Cheers
ahahaha, grammar fail ftl to boot!
@Helsie: I have a couple of other pet hates... loose instead of lose and then instead of than... and let's not get started on there, their and they're. ;-)
Almost as bas as "artisanal."
This is to ensure that grammar nerds return the car!
It's the bumper's fault, obviously, being just two characters too small.
But, they'd have room for the apostrophe and E if they didn't have the extra exclamation marks...
Hey, Grumpy! You got "it's" right! I'm proud of you!
I work in graphic design, and constantly scan printed material/advertising to see what got screwed up grammatically... used to be just occasional sightings on small family-run restaurant menus. Now it's on billboards, national advertising, television.
My pet-peeve is the abuse of the apostrophe - "car's" when they mean "cars." OMG people! Basic punctuation and grammar are taught in GRADE SCHOOL!
Are people getting dumber, or do they just really not care any more?
@LaLa They just don't care anymore. So often when I point out people's mistakes, they say "Why does it matter? You understood my point."
... Except now sometimes it takes 5 minutes to understand the point instead of just reading and knowing. Ugh...
Punctuation saves lives:
Let's eat Grandpa.

Let's eat, Grandpa.

My approved what?
