You may be right. But my wife was an ER nurse, and I got to hear some of her stories, sooo...
An old acquaintance was an ER doctor, and he would regale me with stories of guys coming in with various objects stuck in their asses. He swore that one time a guy came in with a champagne bottle stuck up his ass. That would take some serious dedication.
You'd be surprised how many seemingly random, roughly cylindrical objects people take into the shower with them. Then "slipped on the soap."
Uh-huh. Sure you did.
Like what?
Don't start. Know the difference between a fairy tale and a Soldier/ER nurse/cop story?
A fairy tale starts with, "Once upon a time..." and a Soldier/ER nurse/cop story starts with, "No shit, there was this one time..."
And they absolutely require alcohol.
Fair enough.
I almost switched careers midstream to became a trauma surgeon. I loved everything about it; spent countless hours volunteering in a level 1 trauma center. Ultimately I decided that being at home with my young kids was more important than pursuing professional satisfaction, so I remain tied to my desk….
All that said, I love the work and the stories. I find that stuff morbidly fascinating.
I'm not saying it doesn't happen. I'm saying this person made it up.
Quick! There's probably some kids somewhere near you that still believe in santa, the tooth fairy and the easter bunny! But you'll have to move fast!
