Unsolicited advice

[susanreads]

A couple of days ago I was leaving a meeting and I complained about my knees hurting, and one of the other people started in asking what's wrong with them and stuff, and then with the "You should ignore what the doctor says, doctors don't know everything" (which, that last part is true, so?) and I should go to a chiropractor instead. 'Cos he (the speaker) is older than me and his knees don't hurt, therefore it's nothing to do with my age, also the other person still there is female and older than me and her knees are OK, QED.

GO AWAY. (Or, alternatively, d'you want to hear all about my peri-menopausal symptoms?)

So, disabled people get this all the time: Please, Tell Me More. Observe my total lack of surprise.
