fandom: Reba (with a House crossover)

[memorysdaughter]

I have to admit that I watch a fair bit of "Reba," what with it being shown four times a day on Lifetime. I enjoy many of its jokes, but I have come to realize that comedy fanfic is often the hardest to write... mostly because if all of us were as witty as the TV writers, we would BE writing TV shows

My question is, how did the kid get AIDS in the first place???

[rippersgirl06]

Besides that, HIV isn't the same thing as AIDS. In these days, when they're on the right medication, plenty of people live for years with HIV without contracting the AIDS virus.

[rippersgirl06]

Oops, I forgot to clarify that I was saying that because the original doctor tested her for HIV not AIDS

(Unless of course, they later tested and diagnosed her with AIDS in the fic, which I did not read)

[memorysdaughter]

The doctor tested for HIV and Elizabeth was HIV-positive, but by the sixth or seventh chapter of the fic Dr. House had decided she had full-blown AIDS.

Two of my favorite shows...T_T

[memorysdaughter]

Two of mine, too, until I read this...

"Good, then let's begin. Dr. Cameron is our allergist. Dr. Child is our hematologist. Dr. Wilson is our oncologist. Dr. Jemminsky is our endocrinologist. Dr. Heart is our cardiologist. Dr. Waters is our kidney specialist. Dr. Formon is our neurologist. Dr. Cutter is our surgeon and Dr. Rationale is our child therapist. This is Nurse Dallyingly, Nurse Perkily, and Nurse Brick and our nutritionist is Harmony Baker."

You have got to be kidding me. I don't know which of these names amuses me more. You can, of course, take your pick.

I honestly can't. I wasn't aware that every time you go to hospital the entire staff is introduced to your family, even those with no relevance to your problem :|

I would probably go Dr Cutter the surgeon or Dr Heart the cardiologist. The odds have to be freaky. As is the creativity.

[memorysdaughter]

I'm not sure if I'd want to be treated by Nurse Brick.

I kept waiting for House to continue, "This is our MRI operator, Scans Darkly, and our blood-taking lab technician, Notta Vampire..."

Good Lord, the possibilities are incredible.

I thought it was fairly witty... and every time I laugh my parents ask me what's so funny, so don't feel alienated.

"I'M NOT INTERESTED IN SEMANTRICS."

Is it a blend of word games and Tantric sex? Cause I would be interested then.

they had to give him formula mixed with sugar water instead to prevent a fatal reaction.

Wha? He was allergic to his own mother's milk, or just cows?

I'm fairly sure that taking an embryo (an ectopic embryo) out of the ovaries and putting it in another uterus is NOT a simple procedure... if possible at all.

Not only that, but if it were possible, wouldn't it be easier to put it in the mother's uterus? They're already in there, it's just next door.

"Ice bath or hypodermic chamber?"
A hyperbaric chamber corrects air pressure in the body. A hypodermic chamber would... make a little house under her skin for tiny people? Maybe they're going to shrink the doctors and send them into her body, Inner Space style! (And the hypodermic chamber is a sort of green room.)

[jelliclekitten]

Don't give the author any ideas! *slaps hands over your mouth hurriedly*

[memorysdaughter]

I don't really think he/she really has a lack of them...

... and it's kinda sick, but I really can't wait until there's a new chapter up to mock.

[memorysdaughter]

I think the blend of word games and Tantric sex is Acrostantrics, actually... I have a friend in Washington who's actually pretty good...

And the only reason they didn't put it in the mother's utuerus (although I have to admit, it's a winner) is because she doesn't have one. Complications of that terrible car accident.

Gowning himself in a grown, mask and everything else required for the safe room...

THERE ARE NO WORDS

[memorysdaughter]

I'm going to gown myself in giggles...
