The Art of Pimping
This is a funny article from JAMA that all medical students should read. It is really funny. I have been very lucky/unlucky depending on your point of view to rarely, if ever get pimped by an attending. I'm sure it's coming next year, though! Pimping is the medical profession's S and M version of the Socratic Method. It is teaching by asking questions, and is practiced in many law schools. It is medicine, though that has refined it to its rotten, humiliating core.
Enjoy!
