Hey... I've seen that patient before! The one who isn't in need of
hospitalization anymore from whatever brought her in. Her family has cut
all ties and refuses to allow her back in the home again. No one will
come get her, nor bring her clothes to wear. She is squatting in the
hospital room she doesn't need anymore, and given the option of a
shelter or the police, she took the shelter. And apparently the donated
clothes closet that the nurses stock with their own family's unwanted
clothes was empty or unavailable to give her something better to wear.
Yes, I've seen all this. I think that Stu watching one movie with an
obvious biased slant, then bringing it in to a cooking group is a tad
suspect (lame).

The "Double Standards Queen" posts her OT views to an OT thread on a
Cooking Group (yet again). Now that's what I'd call 'lame'

And I have said again and again- NEVER do I start an OT thread. Yet
choose to occasionally respond to one or to a thread that has drifted. I
don't think ANYONE should start a deliberate off topic thread in a
cooking group. How hard is that for you to understand?

Oh, Puh-lee-ze, spare me. How hard is for *you* to understand that *you*
are exacerbating the very thing that (supposedly) ****es you off? i.e.
posting (mostly whining drivel) to OT threads.

If you didn't "join in" on the OT threads - as and when you feel like
it - you just *might* have a leg to stand on...

Methinks that you and and a few other OT-post whiners should "do lunch"
some time; at least that would be food-related, don't you agree?
