Statements declaring 'all doctors suck' have about as much merit as statements deifying all doctors. That is to say, none at all (though the former gets you riled vs. validated). Reacting to them is pointless, because they probably aren't aimed at you. For instance, that'd be like me getting bent out of shape at someone yelling 'all engineers are socially inept and doomed to be single' when it's widely known and heralded that I'm a pimp.

At your most indulgant, you look at such statements to find out where the source of the frustation stems. Otherwise, ignore 'em.

And while I'm somewhat late to the party and this appears resolved, realize that Ranter has the utmost personal respect for you. Trust me on this one.

You're almost there, baby. Keep your chin up.
