Working on a urology floor, we here stories of how common it is for men in the prison system to stick, lord knows what, high into the urethra.

And everyone knows that a day at the hospital is better than the day at the prison.

I don't remember what it was, but he attached dental floss or something to it so the prison guards and nurses at the prison would believe him that there was something stuck in there. The ER doc of course called the GU resident and the GU resident said "i'm not coming in just so this asshole prisoner can be admitted to the hospital, try to get him to pee and send him on the way and we'll operate
