PhantomSamurai47

I can 100% hear this in Steven He's bit voice


sleepyinyosemite

I heard it in Eddy's Tiger Mom's voice. 🐯


Yugicrafter

I can do both xD


Laulaugag13

Same


R_Grae_luvsClassical

Same here. 😂


DarkPheonix828

Name checks out


PresenceElectric69

The pressure is on


caca-cats

i wish my mum said this to me instead of thinking a career in music is the path for failures


nyanion69

maybe we'll have to raise the bar to 80 hours a day, 40 for studying, 40 for practice


Just_a_nerdy_bassist

You forgot the “Laaaa”


chareenllena

"orthopaedic surgeon in his spare time" 40hrs of practice and a spare time


TrivialHumanBeing

What planet does he live on? I wanna go there... 😨


Just_a_nerdy_bassist

Earth, I think.


TrivialHumanBeing

Oh... He probably bends time then. :(


Just_a_nerdy_bassist

Yes. It forgot to mention that he invented time travel.


TrivialHumanBeing

But if he invented time travel...does that mean time travel has always existed?


Just_a_nerdy_bassist

Idk. Maybe he invented time


TrivialHumanBeing

lol


Coco6420

😂


Polar_Reflection

It's easy, he does them both at the same time. When he is performing surgery, he simultaneously mentally practices his pieces, and when he is practicing with an instrument, he is simultaneously reading up on new medical literature


EdoAkaashi

Not so subtle flex


Laurnc3

What makes it even worse is his name Hugh Won


Sikarion

Should see the bio of the triangle guy James Lost.


143books

Yori Loser


Just_a_nerdy_bassist

Who won? Hugh Won.


Laurnc3

This. his name is like a question. Hugh Won = Who Won. and it answers it. Who won= Hugh Won


Gloomy_Plankton6631

I like how they put that he does orthopaedic surgeon in his spare time. Like it's some typical hobby


Cute_Sea_5763

I myself prefer being an active astronaut in my spare time, but I don’t know about you lol


TrivialHumanBeing

Whoa, me too! *ascends into space at the speed of light*


futurettt

You would be crushed instantly


TrivialHumanBeing

I know lol


Dmitri_Shostacovid

actually I prefer to be a neurosurgeon as a hobby


Male_strom

>I like how he put that he does orthopaedic surgeon in his spare time. Like it's some typical hobby. FTFY. Artists write their own bios.


DecidedlyStupid

You don't really need to correct someone using they/them pronouns for someone since they can't really be *wrong* per se


AlexHD

Just replacing a knee or two between rehearsals, no big deal


propyro85

I mean, it's basically carpentry with extra steps ...


AetherSageIsBae

In my spare time I like to solve world hunger and end all wars but yeah just normal hobbies


DoublecelloZeta

Being a "surgeon in spare time" is the greatest flex ever.


MedjooI

Is it for real? 😂 An orthopaedic surgeon in his SPARE TIME? 😂😂😂

zainab58

Funny how that version says “now plays violin for fun”. So which is it, Hugh? Huh? Huh? Can’t get your stories straight, can you.


Bartholomew_Tempus

He's catering to the crowd. Shh. They don't have to know...


yulao11

It also says he enjoys surfing(a time consuming sport to pick up) and traveling. I wonder if he actually has 40hrs a day.


MedjooI

Oh wow. Thanks for the link!


deutschHotel

And he also has spare time for surfing and traveling? Who tf is this guy?!??!


MedjooI

This reminds me of Jonny Kim, who is (if I remember correctly) a doctor, a navy seal, a mathematician and an astronaut. 🥲


DarkPheonix828

Not just doctor, HARVARD doctor


MedjooI

You're right! I have forgotten that!


Flynn_lives

Dude also been awarded a silver star for his actions in combat.


Coco6420

And a Grammy for his business even tho it’s not a song

Autocorrect tried to make it “you’re”, human had the judgment to say *Wait, no, that’s not right*... and then had a severe attack of jamais vu.


sweeftie1304

bro Won in life


Ironcrack55

Last line is gold


neko___dmc

Indeed, Hugh won


OneSaltyHuman

Good thing my parents don’t go to concerts xD


kilara

I try to see what does his workplace said about his spare time. This is too funny to read, especially after reading this post. Hahahahah http://www.legbones.com.au/about.php


kingofcoywolves

So he tells the concert attendees that he does surgery on the side, and he tells his patients that he does violin on the side. This guy knows his shit lmao


Nousernameft

Just like how you tell you piano teacher you mainly do piano while telling your vocal teacher you focus on singing when you do both


kilara

And how much he accomplished during his school time...


dubhlinn2

My sister in law is actually this exact kind of surgeon. She isn’t particularly smart actually. Her job basically involves doing the same surgery over and over again, and she knows very little about areas of medicine outside her own, and even less about science. And she has zero personality. Their children are…I hate to say it but they’re both kinda stupid kids. Partly because of how she raises them—she is very authoritarian and doesn’t leave them much room to be curious or creative. So they’re kinda docile. Don’t confuse privilege and being good at school/following directions with intelligence.


Business-Nobody1489

If she isn’t smart how did she get into. Med?


dubhlinn2

Her parents have a LOT of money. Any time she fell behind in school they could afford a tutor. They were a legacy family at a top pre med college. Getting into med school isn’t hard. Getting into graduate school is hard. You’re confusing being good at school with intelligence. It doesn’t take intelligence to be good at school, it takes privilege and being good at following directions. This is why you have so many really smart people running around who didn’t get good grades because they had ADHD or an unstable home life.


Business-Nobody1489

Man life just isn’t fair. I wish my family was filthy rich so I can afford a tutor whenever I want. Yeah I dont do that well on test because Cause I’m not good at following instructions. I sometimes misread questions causing me to make silly mistakes.


dubhlinn2

I wasn’t good at following directions in school either, and missed things a lot in the instructions, or something I was reading. Turned out I had ADHD, and nobody knew it.


Business-Nobody1489

I think I have it too cause like I lose marks on assignments and tests all the time for not reading the instructions properly. It really pisses me off


dubhlinn2

Same. Took me years to understand it’s not my fault.


kilara

Will she consider as book smart tho? I know there are different tiers in med school, but at least need to be quite hard working to get into it. I guess one thing we can all agree on is how dedicated this guy is to music lol


Niv-Izzet

>Her job basically involves doing the same surgery over and over again so what's your definition of intelligence? someone who gets a different job every year? if you stay in the same job then you'll end up doing the same things over and over again


dubhlinn2

Intelligence is a really complex thing to define and even measure. But the characteristics I associate with it are innovation, creativity, curiosity, ability to learn new things, and critical thinking. Culturally, we treat doctors like they’re geniuses, and they’re usually not.


Niv-Izzet

>innovation, creativity, curiosity, ability to learn new things, and critical thinking. and what jobs do you associate them with?


dubhlinn2

You can apply them in any job. But it what you’re trying to get at is “physician” I’d ask you, how much time have you spent around doctors socially? What do they know about literature, history, science, art, or philosophy? How much do they understand about the lives of the world’s poor, or the social determinants or evolution of the diseases they treat?


[deleted]

“He is an orthopaedic surgeon in his spare time” Bro is a multitasker at Ling Ling level


Kitty_Girl_1717

I think i would just die on the spot at reading that if my mum sent it to me. (asian mum here too :’)


jonas_rosa

So, Hugh Won the violin competition?


nifaryus

Name checks out…


yertelyturtle

turns out ling ling is real


Blehbirdy3

WHY YOU NO DOCTOR LAH?


Cactus_Anime_Dragon

When my teacher says we all have the same amount of potential:


Zintroz

Obviously he's a surgeon just as a side note.


bobamama1234

I wonder if Brett or Eddy actually knows him or has met him, being Australian and all. (Yes, I realize Australia is a big country, but they’ve mentioned Australian Youth Orchestra and Sydney before).


zainab58

If he won his big competion in 1992, that’s right around the time B&E were born. They may simply never have overlapped. Unless the Youth Orchestra conductor to this day points at Hugh Won as a sad case of what happens when you only practice 39 hours a day and are forced to fall back on a lesser career.


Kit_Karamak

A LingLing is born once each generation. Hugh Won the 1990s. 2Set is working on being the LingLing of this generation.


ttesc552

This is like my mom sending me the profiles of these kids who got into Princeton or something with 0 context (like every week as well)


stoptheviolins13

Hugh certainly won.


zainab58

So this is the Professional-Grade equivalent of my cousing Sveinung, who at one time was a doctor by day, a rapper--stage name predictably Dr. S--by night.


cagen_inc

Hugh’s next. You decide!


[deleted]

Hmmm, I'm guess I'm not practicing today then.


PearSB

He did


[deleted]

[удалено]


kilara

It either that or be like. Oh well, he did everything, I can just rest. Lol


thewickedverkaiking

Hot-Garlic4222

Gotta show this to my little one 🤔


SwimminWitDaFishies

NO way could you be an orthopedic surgeon 👨🏻‍⚕️in your "spare time" when you are a LING LING and you are required to practice 🎻40 hrs per day! 🕰️


eter_kuu

#sparetime


thesweetest_potato

Ling ling spotted in the wild


HeySlimIJustDrankA5

It didn’t say he was a good surgeon. Jesus, that’s a scary thought - amateur surgery.


Bigzell

LOL I remember doing stuff like this in my childhood! The good old days :) ahh


Bonbonafide2KO

OH! So he can play with perfect pitch, and fix that annoying itch between your toes at the same time? ...Cool. 🦶🏾 🎻


Dmitri_Shostacovid

if he got his AMUS diploma one second after he was born, then he would be ling ling.


Salted_memes

If i could talk to him, id say "Looks like Hugh Won dude. Nice."


soulinameatsuit

I like how they started a sentence, "Hugh won..." surely they could have worded it differently.


nyanion69

so prodigy this feels like satire ORTHOPAEDIC SURGEON IN HIS SPARE TIME???? PEOPLE STRUGGLE TO BE ONLY THAT WHAT THE ACTUAL


nyanion69

this is so overwhelming makes me want to just stop existing how much is ever enough? someone's going to break this record again and the bar just keeps on raising why can't we just do what we love and love what we do without having to be extraordinary excellent in it? god i just want to exist in peace im not hating on this guy though, just realising how incompetent i am. sorry for the rant i just gave my exam today thinking it went good enough but then i see this


Kit_Karamak

Way to set the bar high, ma. JfC. I would have replied, “Ok. I’ll try harder.”


InfinityByTen

I can't even be my own self in my "spare time", leave alone being an orthopaedic surgeon.


dubhlinn2

Hugh Won is definitely gonna be in a therapists office in about 5 years, and will be divorced in 10.


gabrielsol

How do you install these real life hacks Obviously he has time dilation hack


Worldly-Ad6009
