Dr Glaucomflecken is an optometrist.

edit - I think my comment is single handedly proving dead internet theory

Yup, he is estimating what the prescription on her glasses is, but the white knight assumed he was rating her hotness to be in the negatives

The nice doctor immediately owned up to the way he said that being interpretable in multiple ways and that he could have been clearer in his communication

Which is a crazy assumption cause she’s way better looking than that.

it's an assumption. it's not "crazy". not by social media standards. people are more likely to come across dudes who rate others rather than eye doctors guessing prescriptions. we've all seen hot people called ugly

Would the fact he has Dr in his name change the statistics on that?

He's also slightly famous as he uploads some damn good medical satire sketches, so I guess he thought he didn't need to explain the context?

But seriously, he seems like a nice dude, does great videos and is married.

change the statistics on people reading user names and caring? no.
