with those creds you don't even have to lie

I wonder if pulling shit like this would be illegal under U.S. law.

Let's say I have a pair of scrubs, a stethoscope, and a bullshit college diploma. Can that be construed as a crime, presenting myself as a doctor, though never intending to actually perform as one?

I'm curious because I know that presenting oneself as a military serviceman with medals is a crime.

Be careful with that...

When I ran a hotel in India I had two attractive Swiss girls check in. I joined them for dinner in the restaurant and they asked me what I was doing in India. I lied and told them I was studying medicine at the local university and ran the hotel to
make some cash on the side. The medicine story was utter bullshit but I wanted to blag them a little. Anyway dinner ended and they went to bed,I thought no more of it. Then at about 3am I get a frantic knock on my door,it was one of the Swiss girls who was in a panic as her friend was being violently ill in her room. She asked me to come diagnose her. Fuck!! I put my clothes on and went to her room where this poor girl was shivering on her bed in her underwear,she looked terrible. She was looking at me expectantly like we do when we go see a doctor. I had two choices: tell her rhe truth that i wasnt a doctor and call one for her or continue to blag and hope she didnt die. I took the coward option. I went in and pulled her
eyelid down,told her to look up ( I'd had it done to me once so thought it might seem like a thing a doctor would do ) I then held her wrist for her pulse,asked her
a few questions and said 'take a pain killer and you'll be ok in the morning'. She was relieved and thanked me for coming. I left them both and went to my bed but I couldn't sleep thinking she might be dying of some tropical disease that needed immediate attention.

In the morning I went up to the restaurant for breakfast and saw them both at a table smiling. "Thanks so much doctor,I feel much better" she said. I was so bloody relieved i wanted to kiss her. I never used the doctor line again.

Ha! Great story, Vorkuta.

It reminds me of the Seinfeld episode where George pretends to be a Marine Biologist.

One girl I know is convinced I'm a party planner.

It just so happens every time she asks me what I'm doing I'm at a party.
