    A guy came into the ER with a teacup up his ass.

    The doctor asked how it happened.

    The doctor said, in the writing where I was reading about this whole event: “What followed was a long and startling story that I immediately regretted asking for.”

      yeah right, he was probably cleaning the kitchen, slipped and fell on it, just like everyone else.

        That’s pretty much exactly what he said, he just took a long time to say it, which was what led to the deep, deep regret on the part of the doctor. He was dusting up on a ladder, drinking tea, totally naked, and then he fell, and oh no look what has happened now.

          There’s a montage from Scrubs where a bunch of people claim “I fell on it” that ends in the last guy shrugging and saying, “I was bored.”

          I respect the fuck out of the last guy.

            I really don’t get it. The only answer that question needs is just look the doctor in the eye and ask, “do I really need to explain?”

            I don’t know for sure, but I feel like the overwhelming majority of doctors would just nod and say “got it,” and then get on with their work.
