Ugh. So rude. I had a coworker here in Sweden who, during lunch breaks, in front of a table full of people, would go on and on about all the articles she read about how people could lose weight and about how people who don't sleep well are more prone to be fat etc. I just don't understand the lack of tact or humility.

Did you also know that if you feed your ADHD child a wheat-free diet, s/he will be cured, and if people with food allergies eat what they think they're allergic to, they'll discover it's all in their heads?

I'm sure that Dagens Nyheter has also had important life-changing articles about those subjects too!

I got a 300kr gift card for Stadium for my birthday. It was from my co-workers, so I can buy new exercise clothes!

We're all going to start going to the same gym now, so I know deep down that its because of that, but still, I did the slow burn all day... I wanted one for Body Shop.

Too bad you can't bitchslap someone through the phone. Or with the power of your MIND.

Hm, was this a conference call between six psychologists? It seems like a very bad practise for anyone working in the field of psychology to put forward a subject like that, in front of others as well.

It might have made sense to tell if the findings had been about some newly found stew of mashed hawthorn berries mixed with artichoke and hornwort, meant to stabilize your insuline levels. Don't try that particular mix though. ;-)

Agreed. Perhaps you could have told her the best way to not be judged by others as a twat was to shut her mouth, or perhaps you could stitch it shut. Hrmph.
