Last night I was in a patient's room and while I was examining him I heard this conversation through the curtains separating my patient from his roommate:
"Can I help you?"
"Yes! Can you please tell my nurse to bring me some more STD's?"
"What?"
"STD's! I need some more STD's!"
"WHAT?"
"These STDs I have aren't working right. Man, I'd really love some more STDs..."
(For those who don't know, we commonly put these little stocking-y things on people's feet when they're in the hospital to help prevent blood clots. They are called SCD's. They are not the same thing as sexually transmitted diseases.)
