> You have an uncle with skin cancer. You bump into an oncologist at a party. You ask some technical questions. Annoying lady cuts in and starts talking about essential oils. You know, you could have written that without the casual sexism. I also find it interesting how you feel this intense need to simultaneously claim that you already knew about all of the same details I mentioned but also dismiss them as irrelevant: if they’re grade school level, what does that say about your original question not indicating awareness of them? If they’re “essential oils”-level quackery, which is hard to reconcile with them being in grade school curriculum, why are you so concerned about saying you knew everything already?
