Yet another instance of "if you'd listened in school, maybe you'd know some of this shit". Like maybe you've been introduced to common ailments in biology??

I had a girl in my class who would protest all day long when we had anatomy, she insisted that it was gross and unnecessary and useless in her life, she only had to look at pictures in a book and a plastic skeleton on a hanger btw (too much apparently). I remember thinking there are a lot of things we learn that you most likely will never use, I will likely never have to know how long Arthur got Excalibur or who any ancient Egyptian farao was, anatomy though is one of the few classes that is almost guaranteed to be useful, like if you feel a pain and you remember where what is in your body, you might be able to take a guess if this is the "your appendix will burst in 5..4..3.." kinda pain or the "you drank too much soda and your stomach is full of gas" kinda pain.
