Some level of cynicism about charities is warranted. But that screed seems more along the lines of Big Charity in cahoots with Big Pharma to hide the _true_ cure for cancer (kale enemas?). Citing the great Linus Pauling’s unfortunate crank phase is a big red flag; and a link to some nutritional supplement page with a letter that the BMJ (co-conspirators) didn’t publish.

**Zetetic Skeptic** is starting set off the troll bells for me. He’s just a tropical storm level right now, but edging towards Level 1 rapidly. He picked a nicely inflammatory title for his [opus on finding a job](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=836861).

Agreed that breast cancer guy is at least a woo-nut.

I wish to lodge a complaint\* against **Asimovian** for closing [this thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=837342), which was showing great comedic promise. Arrested person out on bond decides it’s a good time to taste cocaine, but it’s totally cool because he doesn’t do drugs. He just needed to test the quality, bitch!

Good way to test for quality.

Try some, then take a drug test.

“Bitch I didn’t do any cocaine I just rubbed it on my gums to test the quality !”

“Asshole I didn’t rob anyone, I just waved a gun in that storekeeper’s face til he put some money in my sack !”

Actually, more like:  
“Bitch I didn’t sleep with your sister, I just stuck it in her to check how it felt !”

The above links to post #1 from a newly-registered poster, asking women to share their stories of male interns at gynecological exams. Pure wank fodder.

“Bush league”: LOL

And thanks BobLibDem for “I’d probably draw the line if they wanted to take a selfie with me.”

I posted, but I give myself a ten-word maximum on threads like that and the one about male student gynecologists.
