I found this entry, presumably from the Department of Redundancy Department, in a hospital note this morning.

A Blog detailing the insanity of my medical practice and the stupidity of everyday life.

Welcome to my whining!
This blog is entirely for entertainment purposes. All posts about patients, or my everyday life, or anything else may be fictional, or be my experience, or were submitted by a reader, or any combination of the above. Factual statements may or may not be accurate. I could be making all this up. I may not even be a doctor. The only true statement on here is that I probably drink more Diet Coke than you do. A lot more.

That started my day off right, Thanks.
That's nothing. I once had a guy that peed, urinated AND micturated in the back seat of my squad car. Boy, was I pissed!
And the Department of Bad Grammar Department?
Unless patient was laying stool instead of tile.
Either that or he owes someone a new barstool?
You say you found the entry---were you looking for it---and why exactly were you looking for it ?
Get help.
Sounds like a law firm, doesn't it? Stool and Feces, attorneys at law.
What was he laying? Hard boiled eggs?
O.P.S.
BTW word verification is 'cotocu' ;-)
"Laying in" meaning "storing for future use?"
hehe...feces...
As a side note, it's faeces, not feces. Also, I was very distraught to learn that you all spell moustache without
the u. Very disturbing...very disturbing indeed.
"So good, they had to name it twice!"
@Axl: technically, shouldn't it really be written with the "ash" character, thus: "fæces?"
I am glad the grammar police are out.
I could hear my mother (English teacher) in my head, "hens lay, people lie".
=)
There must have been a lot of s**t involved, since one word was apparently insufficient to describe the situation.
Perhaps it was a broken stepstool?
:)
Actually both are correct spelling for feces. Other spelling could be the old english way.
I wonder if dude fell off his stool and then soiled himself? LOL I get the redundant part of it.
off topic - the patient who told you the world would end on sat probably was referring to wecanknow.com :p
Not stool AND feces!
i am presuming the language is a reference to texture, describing both a liquid an a solid component.
Hehe, Mary Anne good one, a law firm like all the others! I'm on the "faeces" side of the fence its just crap spelt the other way ! Sorry..
What's the problem? The guy was sitting on a stool that collapsed. The shock of this was enough that he had an involuntary bowel movement and he was injured enough that he couldn't move out of the mess.
I was really bored waiting at the vet's last week, so I read everything in the exam room including...the pictoral guide to dog stools- they were rated 1 to 5, runny to tough, and they had photos. (Sad thing is that a few years ago my dog had diarrhea and I would have rated it a minus 1... they told me to get a sample and I said "I can't," which they did understand until they saw it..one would have needed a shop vac, not a little jar.
@Albinoblackbear: I heard the same type of thing in my head - my English teacher drilling into our heads that "Chickens lay eggs! PEOPLE lie down." lol
Twin beds?
@C....I am a vet assistant and I usually resort to asking people to describe their dog's stool in terms of food...is it like soft-serve ice cream, pudding, cool-wip....
Oh good, glad to see I'm not the only grammar nut who cringed at the laying/lying foul!
At least it didn't say "lying in his own stool and feces". I'm always amazed when someone says in horror, "She was found lying in her own feces!" Seems to me that would be much preferable to lying in someone else's!
