As a joke it’s perfect 😂 but also: please don’t actually do this—finishing antibiotics as prescribed (or calling your doc if you’re having side effects) is the real pro tip.
If you’re ever lost in a forest, and you want to be rescued, just start building a house. Someone will magically appear to ask if you have a building permit.
Put on a pair of headphones and start listening to something. Then set about to making shelter or building a fire or something. You’ll be rescued as soon as your hands are full because someone will come along to ask you the single most inane question of your life.
In telecoma version is take a fibre optic cable with you and burry it. A backhoe will promptly arrive to dig it up.
Course lengths for antibiotics isn’t well studied. From this article:
In fact, the optimal length of treatment in many common infections is not well studied and may be more than a little arbitrary. One infectious diseases doctor has suggested, somewhat satirically, that most of our current rules for antibiotic administration have more to do with the number of days in the week than they do with robust scientific evidence.
We have a growing and, frankly, terrifying issue of antibiotic resistant bacteria from over prescribing and longer than necessary courses.
This is exactly the same as saying to a software developer: “I was going to ask you to write me some software to do this, but I’ll just get AI to do it instead”
“I used to do programming when you could put code on your MySpace page”
No, because we wont be compelled to answer…
Good for ya if you solved one of your problem with AI.
Good luck tho.
Better yet, tell them you were taking antibiotics for a “viral” infection, like a cold.
Works great with your local autistic friend too, or anyone with any semblance of common sense

Or of they are a nurse, ask them which home remedy is best for burns: toothpaste or powder coffee?
Vaseline
Get fancy and use Vicks
tell them to put a whole onion in their sock and call it a day
Just tell them the joke was weak, and move on with your life.

I know you asked for CSV but it wasn’t showing up right so I saved it as PDF. Can I send that to you?
Sends it by taking a photo of the screen, which displays part of the PDF and some questionable browser tabs are clearly visible in the photo.
Edit: questional -> questionable
“OK, I unplugged the computer. … No, I still hear air moving. … What? You mean the footrest? Why would I unplug that?”
I would try Linux, but I’m not some command-line hacker type. I like a nice GUI and Linux just can’t compete with the big guys on that front with all the “packages” or whatever bloating up your knock-off OS.
Man… I get it. I’ve changed at least five windows machines to Linux in the past. This past fall, I was switch my HP spectre to Linux and bricked the fucking thing.
All of the security windows shit meant a bunch of bios changes, then out of nowhere it wouldnt charge the battery.
No idea how to fix it now that the battery and/or laptop won’t recognize the power plugged into any of the usbc ports. Ive tried different chargers, different outlets, and leaving it plugged in for 24 hours, but no life at all. No power means I cant restore to default bios, and Linux wouldnt install because once I was done fucking with the security, i didnt have enough battery to complete the install.
It’s fucking embarrassing.
I then gave up and upgraded to a gaming laptop with a 5070ti, but I’d love to resurrect that old one if anybody has any tips.
Resetting the BIOS involves removing the internal CR2032 battery. Not a charged (main) battery.
Is that a fact? Well, maybe i’ll give that a shot if it’s easy enough. Thanks for the heads up.
Google it for the specific device you have, especially how to open it.

“Oof. I wonder what I did to piss them off?”
So why do you have to take the full thing of antibiotics? It has never been explained to me
My blood is boiling
You’re gonna want to take extra doses of antibiotics for that.
Let me ruffle all your feathers: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6736742/
That is interesting. But a consideration for the doctor, not the layperson. Everyday people should still take the full course prescribed and hope their physician has prescribed the right dose.
You are absolutely right. People should trust their doctors, but doctors should also update their knowledge.
Here’s hoping they do, yeah. I suspect most do, at least where I live.
Where in that document does it say that patients should decide on their own to stop taking antibiotics because they “feel better now”?
This is something one can bring up with the doctor who prescribed it, but not a decision to make on feelings.
Where in my post did I say that patients should decide on their own to stop taking medication?
I tried to share some information, that show nothing is black and white and only because something is believed by many, that something can still be wrong.
The meme you commented under is about someone getting attention by prematurely stopping to take antibiotics.
If you don’t want people to assume what you mean, please add context.
