Great parents

Mrs. Tude: "I think you know my daughter, Cindy. She works at the hospital."

Dr. Grumpy: "Maybe... What does she look like?"

Mrs. Tude: "A lot like me, except she's fatter and uglier."

  2. Fatter? Maybe. Uglier? Impossible.

  3. Oh . . . that's classic. Thank's for sharing! I can't stop laughing. Maybe 'cause I had a patient say something similar a few months ago.

  10. When I was 12 I was a patient in the ED. At some point I asked if my mother could come back into the room and the nurse asked me what she looked like. I responded, "She wears a wig and has false teeth" In my defense I have to say that I had already been given pain medication at that point.

  11. My daughter is definitely slimmer and prettier than me! If she were fatter and uglier than me she'd be in a circus or on a TV documentary :-P

  14. Really? Her daughter is alive and employed? I would think this one would have eaten her young.
