The stinging nettle incident


from the ABC set The Nurse

I heard a guy (who happens to be me) saying that Benny (me) was throwing strawberry flavor clownshoes at the chainlink fence last night in protest at the nurse being suspended for trying to pee over the refectory wall whilst on duty. I (me) think it's shocking about the suspension - I mean (me), the staff nurse who was holding her ankles didn't even get an official warning, and frankly I think it is just sour grapes on behalf of matron who can only piddle as high as the paper towel dispenser, since that incident with the stinging nettles last summer. A clear cut case of professional jealousy, everyone knows (everyone) the board turned down her application to write a paper about tambourine players elbow, and she's been looking for someone to blame all week. The thing is (the thing) - of course there is more than one nurse in a hospital, both in general and in the time of our story -nurses travel in flocks,or nurseries, series and rankling ranks - staff nurse, half nurse, bath nurse, laugh nurse, matron, patron, sister, mister, registered general nurse, registered specific nurse, non registered non specific nurse, senior enrolled nurse, junior enrolled nurse and all that razzamatazz, a bit like those Russian dolls, the chain of command is enormous (enormous) and the strict hierarchy and protocol must be adhered to or all hell would break loose, must be adhered to or all hell would break loose, must be adhered to or all hell would break loose, must be adhered to or all hell would break loose,must be adhered to or all hell would break loose, like with the stinging nettle incident. Would you believe this guy? If not, what if a zombie took his place, would you believe a zombie instead? (of me)

Probably not Crackersville. Zombies are known to make stuff up. Enjoyable read BTW.

I think you explained everything very clearly

Chuck, what you said is shocking (probably not Crackersville) (me). Would you believe yourself (you)? What if a zombie took your place, would you believe the zombie? I.p.f.n.h, I (me as in myself) thank you (you)

Me (you), me (you), me (you), it's always about me (you), isn't it?

Well, one of us (you), anyway.

I think it's ridiculous. I've tried. Nobody can pee higher than a towel dispenser.

Nothing can be more shocking than what you said celticman. It is something I will never forget (I will always remember in other words). Celticman (he) has tried. :-)
Ewan-EL, (you-EL) it's always what I (me-EL) hate to admit.

I said 15 champagnes, did you hear me? FIFTEEN, look at that TV set, exposed to an open window. The snow is terrible too!
