Joke of the Day

I appreciate jokes aimed at surgeons, dermatologists and radiologists*, so this one was a winner:

How do you hide a $20 bill from:

            -a radiologist? 

                        tape it on a patient

            -an internist? 

                        tape it under a bandage

            -a plastic surgeon? 

                       you can’t!

*I can take a joke as well as I can dish it.

Some random goodies

All from professors:

"So, ladies, if you have a boyfriend that won't commit, it's not because he's a jerk - he's a MUTANT! (vasopressin AVPR1 mutant)" 

"Nodular by nature" (on the thyroid)

‎"As everyone knows, when you remove the pineal gland from a patient, they become soulless, flesh-eating zombies. It's very dangerous."

"I love giving lectures on guts and butts - so put your seatbelts on." 

“daily bowel action” 

"through some variety of transvaginal route, she thought she had acquired medical knowledge*” 

My moment of Zen**: 

"I'm not saying that in order to be a physician, you have to have a dirty mind...but it helps."

*wow, this would make med school so much more FUN

**if you don't know that this references The Daily Show, you need to get on that.

Wednesday Dinners

We were talking about androgen insensitivity disorder, you know, like you do when you're in med school.* 

Friend 1: "Do they have a cervix?"

Friend 2: "No, I think the vagina just ends in a blind pouch. But I'm almost certain the Bartholin's glands are there."

Friend 3: "Well, the vagina's still good for things vaginas are used for."

Friend 2: "Yeah, you can still hide drugs in there."

I love my friends. I really really love them. 

*If you're offened: #1 tough. #2 my friends and I are extremely gay/intersex/trans friendly, so get over it, this is just what med students talk about sometimes.

Public Service Announcement

School has been beating me over the head with 4 lectures/day, so instead of write something, I wanted to share this service announcement, as Valentine's Day is coming up:
