She was about to check his blood sugar and he couldn’t hear her so she grabbed his finger and shouted “little prick!”. He shouted back that she was holding his finger!

Some people of course think innuendo jokes are crass and shouldn’t be said in public but I think they’re a great way to lighten the mood or make fun of an otherwise boring task (like a chemistry lab where we were drying a precipitate).

It happened to me with a male nurse and an ear thermometer.

Also very funny conversation …even on our side of the curtain ..but could only imagine what roommate thought. Ha ha! :)
