    Okay so mostly all old people… got it.

    And only in your limited worldview in your profession… somehow that didn’t seem to make it any better of an argument for me

    You work in IT yet seem to know the training levels and requirements for doctors or perhaps you are just generalizing once again

        Do I need to have receipts to show that pre teens and teens generally have less knowledge than 30 year olds? Pretty sure I don’t because I wasn’t arguing what you are posting receipts about

        Of course aging affects skills and abilities and when you start to get to the end of lifespans, memory and knowledge can also fall off, I’m not saying that doesn’t happen I replied to the idiotic statement that “Boomer doctors aren’t dead yet, and haven’t learned anything since the 70s.”

        A blanket statement of idiocy is what that is.

          Ah, well, I can’t exactly force you to understand hyperbole. The fact that the next phrase was “but seriously” should have indicated the lack of seriousness of the first statement.

            I understand hyperbole, that’s my whole problem, hyperbole used in arguments is like trying to argue with a chimp at that point

            Now if what you actually meant was that you were being sarcastic then that’s fine I can get in on the joke you are attempting to make but I can’t exactly force you to understand sarcasm
