The belief that there are no genius burger flippers is what is arrogant. You apparently missed that this is the point I am making.

"I have relatives who are dentists."

And that obviously influences your take on this issue. I didn't insult or demean your relatives, I just don't have good reason to believe they're "special" because they're dentists.

"The very word "mechanic" conjures up images of incompetent lying men who will rip you off and ruin your car."

"Changing oil takes five seconds to learn."

That is exactly the kind of arrogance I'm calling out here. The truth is, pulling a tooth takes about that long to learn too, and the tools used aren't that much different.

Don't believe me?

Come on over and I'll pop one of your teeth out in about 5 seconds without ever going to school to learn how and I'll use the same tool to change the oil on my lawn mower ten seconds later.
