"There are countless horrible things happening all over the world and horrible people prospering, but we must never allow them to disturb our equanimity or deflect us from our sacred duty to sabotage and annoy them whenever possible." -Auberon Waugh

Sunday Funnies
From friend and commenter Jeff comes this example of the unanticipated (?) consequences of bridge design.
Under Obama Care, I'd advise you to bring your own anesthesia.
If only that wasn't a documentary. My youngest brother went in for a simple appendectomy. They gassed him and went to work.
My family sometimes has slightly atypical reactions to medical treatments.
He figured, what the hell, they gave me the gas, if I'm still conscious, that's probably normal.
Then he heard the surgeon say, "Oops."
Not surprisingly, he asked, "What? What's oops?" and the OR staff freaked.
"I thought he was out!" "He IS out, I gave the gas, the mixture is right!" "Get a screen! Get a screen!"
Meanwhile my brother was saying, "forget the screen, what's oops?" and the nurse is leaning on his forehead with her arm he keeps trying to look down and see what's going on...
So Bozo already visits the OR. Keep an eye out for surgical masks with suspicious nasal bulges...
Hey, what's that Congresscritter doing in an operating room?
ReplyDeleteThat's a riot! :)
