Sometimes when I try to be funny..
I'm not funny.

Then, other times when I'm not trying...

well, you know.

Anyway, I just want to apologize

if I offend anyone.

I'm sorry.

p.s., Luckily, I have a job where I can pretty much stick to a script!

3. Complimented/Chastised ratio = 10/90.
I'll take it.

4. It was neither a compliment nor a chastisement. It's just a fact. nt

10. I may be a poopyhead
But it doesn't mean I intentionally hurt people when I'm trying to be funny (like now). ;-)

11. You are not a poopyhead.
The orthopedic surgeon we just saw is a poopyhead, you are not.

15. Yah, but some are poopier than others.
This surgeon was a jackass. Seriously. I was told by the nurse at school that they would require a note to release her back to school and so I asked no less than three times to get the note today, and he kept telling me that I would not need it.

:banghead:

18. I had the same battle with an Ear, Nose & Throat doc once....
Edited on Thu Apr-17-08 06:31 PM by KC2
I actually told the office staff, "I am sitting right here and waiting, until you provide me a note!" They did. :eyes:

19. I was not going to leave without one.
Seriously. The nurse told me that if I did not come with a note, K would be sitting in her office for 4 hours waiting for the doctor to fax a note into the school.

This particular practice as a whole was not real patient friendly. I butted heads with no less than 3 different people besides the doctor. One of the casting techs was a super asshole to me. The other one was fantastic (thankfully she was the one who casted K).

20. It's really too bad you couldn't get...

.to see Dr. Stanton, in Newport Beach. He had the best bedside manner of any physician I've ever known.

The Newport walk-in clinic is good too... if it's still there anyway! :hi:

16. I had a teacher who told the most un-funny jokes...
He was Korean and spoke fluent German, so it's possible the jokes were funny in one of those languages. But he'd tell them to me, then crack up laughing. I'd end up rolling with laughter too, because it was so ridiculous that he'd find them funny.

17. I hated my Geometry teacher's jokes
Edited on Thu Apr-17-08 06:30 PM by KC2
She hated me too. It was the only "F" I've ever gotten!! lol I laugh when I think back on it. It's amazing that any University accepted me with that on my transcript!

Oh, just so you know I'm not exaggerating about how stupid her jokes were, here is an example:

What did the Italian say when he lost his deck of cards? Deck-a-gone.

I hope she was fired, eventually, for her politically incorrect behavior. :-(
