Pickles by Brian Crane for February 18, 2022

“Look, I found a bummy rabbit!”

With the drugs, I don’t know if he is hallucinating this.

“Hey Rocky, watch me pull a rabbit out of his a**”

Even worse, he thinks he’s a comedian.

Doctor, not funny. Too many people really dread a colonoscopy, to be cheered by a rabbit trick.

Is it benign?

At least it wasn’t a gerbil.

Does malpractice insurance cover rabbits?

If he let him do a colonoscopy without being put under he deserves whatever the doctor throws at him

Not so bad… he could have try to put it IN…

Is he dreaming this? He’s not sedated and Dr isn’t maker gloved.

I thought it was one of the missing slippers…

Doc’s use of tenses is confusing. Maybe they’re still in pre-op stuff.

Doctors come with the whole spectrum of “funny behavior”. But since they had almost no time to PRACTICE being funny while on their way to the MD, their jokes are often pretty poor.

Earl is awake for this?! Gross!

In my twenties (~60 years ago) I think I was the butt of a joke. Doctor needed to do sigmoidoscopy on me. He placed the instrument up my fanny then asked me if I could reach back and hold it for a moment. He stepped out and brought in his nurse and introduced us rather formally.

Is that actually a rabbit of did Earl have a wild hare up there?

“And now, since you no longer have a hare-y butt,

…. we won’t have to shave it.

Earl is the butt of a joke again!

If that dumb doctor keeps it up, he us liable to give someone a heart attack.

I’m thankful that I was under general anesthesia for all of mine.

“We praise the colorectal surgeon

Misunderstood and much maligned

Slaving away in the heart of darkness

Working where the sun don’t shine"

That test is like a car going the wrong way down a one-way street. Believe me. I know.

No, my GI pulled a major funny joke on me: he used a non-network anesthesiologist and stuck me with a $980 bill.

Well, maybe they thought it was funny, but I could do without the laugh… :-\

I doubt that Earl would know about Yelp, but if he did, I think I know what kind of rating he would give this doctor!

Sounds like something my doctor would do. I think he went into gastro for the poop jokes.

My first colonoscopy, I had an anesthesiologist named “Mel Brooks”. True.

If it takes that guy an hour to do a routine colonoscopy, find another gastroenterologist!

A Milk of Amnesia induced hypnagogic hallucination.

WHY IS EARL AWAKE?!!

ENOUGH ALREADY!!!! TGIF. . .

Shouldn’t he be asleep?

What a goof. Any decent magician knows, Hold Them by The Ears.

When I had my first one they were still using the drug that left you awake up until just before the procedure. As they were getting me ready for the doc, I said “I know it seems drastic, but I’ve looked everywhere else for my keys”.

Ha! My gastro doc had a pic of monkeys picking each other’s as*!

LOL

What does his wife have in hers?

HA……. GOOD ONE..!!!!!!

Six munts ago I cudnt evn spel gastroenteroligest, now I are one! Duh!

Now i would be really impressed if he pulled the Precious Roscoe out of his keester. And cmerb could have yet another day!

Earl sure has a hare-y ass.

So that’s how he worked his way through medical school…

They put me under for all the colonoscopies I’ve had… there wasn’t time to hear any jokes

Wanna real laugh, pull out a porcupine.

That’s why I have them put me to sleep.

very funny

EarL: NGAA…up your nose with rubber hose..

Inside joke.

snort LOL

Most men would prefer a female doctor to do this procedure. :-()

There is NO way anything like that would be there after the “cleaning” you do before hand.

Does he gets to keep the wabbit as souvenir or air freshener?

Never had gastrologist or general surgeon do that to me, the Dr. speak to me first then I be rolled by bed in surgery room, position and then sedated briefly, then trying to wake, Dr. come in with the results.

That’s hilarious! Especially since I am due for one! :-)

It’s a LOT harder than pulling one out of a hat.

I couldn’t hit a “like” on all the comments, so I’ll just write “all comments “ were great. ;-} :-} (-: (-;

Not my choice which is, “Put me 100% out.”

Wait for him to start pulling coins from there.

This is amusing but totally inaccurate. When you have a colonoscopy, you are “under” during the actual procedure. Or maybe it’s a projection of Earl’s fears.

This happened to Prez. Jimmie Carter years ago.

Perhaps a former pediatric gastroenterologist?

One colonoscopy I had 15 years ago I was able to watch the procedure on small screen as the doctor described the journey of a small camera.

Well, he can take comfort in the fact that he gets to moon the joker.

Haha I will get up and find myself a new doctor.

You can’t drive home from the hospital. My honey brought me home.

She said ‘’You feeling alright? They said you might be sleepy.’’ (It’s noon time.)

Me ‘’Nah. I feel fine.’’ I then sat in my big chair and conked out until dinnertime.

Please believe them, it’s not safe to drive after the procedure.

most excellent

HahaahahhahahahaGross.

I hope that doctor ends in hell.

I’m surprised he didn’t find the check book… or the car keys.

One little colonoscopy, and, look at all the sh—-y jokes that come out of it! Shame on us all!

A stuffed toy rabbit, is better than a real gerbil.

That is hilarious! I actually laughed out loud….
