The Cool Kids

Published

Specializes in ICU.

I've been on AN for a while, I signed up before I got in to nursing school. I read several times a week, but I'm more of a lurker, I rarely post.

I lurk on the School Nurse forum all the time, although I am not a school nurse. I come from a family a teachers-- Mom, Dad (now admin), Sister, Grandmother, Aunt, Uncle and some cousins; all teachers. I think that's part of the reason I find your threads so entertaining, it makes me giggle knowing how pesky teachers can be. And overall, you guys are just fun and I love reading your threads.

But you know what I love best about your forum? How tight knit and supportive you are of each other (*Disclaimer: this is not to say other people on other boards AREN'T, I just think this is a smaller group, thus allowing a tighter knit). You guys are always so supportive of each other. I was just reading a random thread and Farawan (pretty sure that's spelled wrong 😳) started her response with "You can come to us with ANYTHING, okay?" That made my heart smile 😁.

So pretty much, you guys are the cool kids and I wanted to give you a shout out. You're also a bunch of smart alecks, so what's not to love? 😉

Thank you.

The only truly cool one is Flare. The rest of us are a bunch of dorks. Especially OldDude.

I really can't get through the day without my SN peeps. They are so smart, and giving, and supportive, and freaking hilarious.

There have been many times I was unsure (read my Narcan thread) and although many nurses weighed in, these folks here on this forum are the people I trust to know exactly what I'm asking. We don't always agree 100%, but I listen to them a bit harder, because this is my job, and they have become my co-workers.

If I ever get blocked at work I will be so sad. I count on my friends.

You saved that pic, didn't you? Just so you could post it whenever you wanted. And yeah, you guys are cool. Why else would I wear pink on Wednesdays so that I can sit at the cool kids' table?

Yes. You are right. That's the only reason I saved it.

Yes. You are right. That's the only reason I admit that I saved it.

There is a picture of your denim clad rear end with you wearing a pink pair of women's underwear OVER the denim (better than NOT wearing the denim-haha!!) plastered all over the internet and you are concerned about the twisted hem on your shirt?
