  1. Dr Grumpy: "Are you allergic to pillows, too?" (Puts pillow over Mr Anaerobe's face. Mr Anaerobe is unfazed. Next year, Dr Grumpy gets Nobel for discovering a new humanoid lifeform.)

  6. This sounds as fun as when I've caught nurses charting the patient on 19 or 14% oxygen (intending it to be room air-21% for non medical people). I've started calling it pillow O2 therapy

  8. I always suspected that photosynthesis was the reason that patients do not lose weight, despite claiming to be eating only a single carrot and water daily.

  10. I've had a patient tell me they, too, were allergic to oxygen.

    I said, 'congratulations on living to 76 years old--quite impressive'
