Reading Fearless felt like Lauren was teasing us with a dagger then she stabbed us in the 1st few chapters (in the chest since its her favorite way). The rest? She kept twisting that dagger right and left, up and down. Twist and more twist. Throws a bucket of salt at the wound then back to the twisting. Then when we thought it was over she pushes it to the hilt with that epilogue ( I never not wanted an epilogue in my life like this). Yes she fucked us hard.
Getting a warning from every. single. senior. that its going to be hell but thinking "how bad can it be, i can handle it" (avg 10th topper misconceptions)
Being on a massive high after 10th results thinking you're gonna academically obliterate everyone in 11th-12th only to go into an extreme low within the first round of 11th grade exams
Cursing yourself for not researching enough before choosing science as your stream, fantasizing about how much better off you would be with Humanities or Commerce (delusional bcz those are hard asw but science is deadly tho)
Finding almost every chapter hard in the beginning and stressing over how you will ever complete the always-massive syllabus only to find that once you reach the end of the year what you thought was hard was just the tip of the iceberg (this also shows growth though so well done everybody)
Communal hatred for organic chemistry, anybody who doesn't hate it is either a genius or absolutely unhinged or both
Teachers always saying "you're a science student now" whenever they want to lecture you on how to never have joy in life and only live for marks
Having massive panic attacks and living in constant anxiety but nothing beats the joy of getting a hard numerical right in the first try
Scouring academic pages for study tips and routines and watching study vlogs etc but as a form of procrastination
Stressing over competitive exams ALL.THE.TIME because everyone you meet will talk about just that incessantly for two years
Realising that there are a plethora of careers you would rather choose than 'doctor' and 'engineering' but feeling unnecessary shame and guilt to pursue those
Coaching classes fooling us all into thinking they'll make us geniuses when actually they mostly add to the stress, even though they aren't completely useless they're definitely not worth lakhs of fees
Missing out on so so so many things in order to stay home and study even though its completely unproductive studying as you would rather be doing the thing you've sacrificed
Feeling guilty about doing ANYTHING that isn't studying, being made to feel guilty by others for doing things you love because "these two years are for sacrifices, after that you have all your life for these things''
The high of acing a test because it is so rare and takes actual blood sweat and tears that it leaves you with dopamine enough to last a week
Having your parents and relatives continually talk to someone older than you who has cracked the exam ur sitting for to get "tips" even if they cracked the exam 7 years ago and the format was completely different and much easier then
Having to rush over the syllabus so much that you forget how much you actually loved to study the subject, having your heart broken thinking that you're not good at your favourite subject anymore when actually its just the fact that its being taught in such a rush and not that you've lost your spark
Having the sympathy of all your non-science friends and always having moye moye talks with your science friends
what do you mean iām 17????? what do you mean iām the same age as my favourite characters??? what tHE FUCK DO YOU MEAN IāLL AGE MORE AND THEY WONT??
Oh, no, my friend, @aceyuurikatsuki . Itās not just that. It is so much more. Settle down and let your friendly neighborhood x-ray tech explain you a thing.
Throckmortonās Sign, otherwise known as Throckmortonās Principle, does in fact have to do with dicks. Because it is fairly normal for a dick to show up on a hip or pelvis x-ray. But the thing about Throckmortonās Sign is, itās not just that the dick is visible. It is a legitimate diagnostic tool.
Let me explain: letās say a person equipped with a penis is in a car accident and has right leg and right side hip/pelvic pain. Their doctor will order x-rays. Unfortunately, sometimes fractures are so small that they can be missed, or, because the patient is in such bad shape and the images obtained arenāt the best quality, the radiologist canāt be sure for one reason or another if what theyāre seeing is actually a fracture.
So what do they do? They look for the dick.
You heard me correctly. The dick.
Throckmortonās Sign is when āthe penis points to the area of pain.ā So if the above-mentioned AMAB patientās xray arenāt displaying a clear, obvious fracture, but their dick is pointing to the right side, 9 times out of 10, the injury or fracture is on the right hip or leg area, so then the radiologist will focus on that side while reading.
Now I know what my non-radiology followers are thinking. āAce, this sounds like bullshit. This canāt be true. Youāre lying through your teeth.ā But I swear to you, it is 100% accurate. I have seen a positive Throckmortonās Sign multiple times with my own eyes over the course of the past 7 years. Ask any x-ray tech, and they will probably agree with me.
Your dick is good for at least one thing, and that thing is helping a radiologist diagnose your upper femur, hip, or pelvic fracture.
One thing you should definitely know: never say āthank youā. Those despicable words replace whatever the repayment of the debt should be, and implies they expect the other personās work to be for nothing but their worthless gratitude. You could offend someone very quick to violence if you arenāt careful
