From dragonet2 comes this incredible link of utterly hysterical ER stories, in the form of "lessons they have learned," posted to a web forum for student doctors.

Some of my favorites:

If you are going to get into a fight, and have a prosthetic eye, make sure you take it out first.....and, for safe keeping, shove it up your vagina.....the, realize that

If you are going to get into a fight, and have a prosthetic eye, make sure you take it out first.....and, for safe keeping, shove it up your vagina.....the, realize that you cannot get it out and go to the ED for removal (happened to one of the guys in my residency).

One of the guys shoved a prosthetic eye up his vagina? Huh?

;)

Yes, I noticed that too. Odd how many student doctors really suck at writing and grammar! No wonder I can never read my prescriptions.

I couldn't get the link to open! Is it just me?

No, me too this morning. Their forum seems to be down at the moment. You could try it again later -- it's worth it!

Oh, I'll definitely try again. My son and I are both big fans of SCRUBS, which medical professionals tell me is the most realistic depiction of life in the trenches for the newbie doctors.
