when a person goes in for std testing (because they are cautious, not because they think they have anything, hi mom!) there ought to be a box you can check on the intake form that says "i have done and am trained to do peer education about std's/sti's and for the love of god could i skip the part where the earnest and well meaning volunteer walks me through testing information that i know better than she does?"

she was dead earnest, though. i try to think of it as cute rather than annoying.
