I'm going to tell a story about some people in Cleveland Heights Ohio who want to go to chiropractic school.
Hey Phil - I'm going to go to chiropractic school!!
- That's stupid John, don't you know chiropractic school isn't real? It's just witchcraft!
Really? My grandma was a witch!
- No, what I mean is that they don't teach real medicine at chiropractic school, they teach hogwash!
This isn't an entirely uncommon misconception. I used to have a girlfriend who's mother believed that the chiropractic field wasn't to be trusted. I disagreed with her but couldn't tell her that because my girlfriend was very attractive. It completely negated my abilities to disagree with her effectively. I basically just became an idiot any time I was around her so she basically could have made the argument that the President was an alien and that space was actually made out of soup and I would have been like, "Yea, I've always thought that. I just didn't know anyone would agree with me before now..." Needless to say she never changed her mind about the chiropractic field. She just stuck with Advil long periods of back discomfort. You know, everyone has to go with what works.
