Feeling cynical this morning, are we? Yes, we are… xo, Amy

Not knowing anything about a subject didn’t stop her from commenting on it. In fact, sometimes that was when she waxed most eloquently. Her opinions were sharp, well-defined, and eminently mutable. The subtleties of bullshit were her chosen field.

People were stunned by her accuracy. Even when on the face of it, it appeared she must have been wrong, she invariably turned the situation around so that she had been right all along. It was more than a skill, it was an art. Reality and truth meant nothing, so long as people believed the result. Believed in her.

Too bad she claimed to be a doctor.

But it didn’t matter, as long as the patients trusted her.

Right?
