Thoughts and prayers for the one patient for whom it actually was a freak accident

[–] hemko@lemmy.dbzer0.com 28 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Probably the priest who fell on a potato while cooking naked

[–] Deepus@lemm.ee 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

How'd you know he was a priest if he was naked?

[–] hemko@lemmy.dbzer0.com 23 points 1 year ago

He was praying when it happened. "Oh my god"

[–] BarrelAgedBoredom@lemm.ee 27 points 1 year ago

Fun fact: If you actually fell and landed on something with enough force to make it's way inside of you the object would quite literally rip your asshole. When it's a true accident, it's very clear due to the blood loss and whatnot

Reminds me of the episode of Seinfeld when Frank gets a pasta statue stuck up his ass

[–] FinalRemix@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Million-to-one shot, doc!

[–] TheSlad@sh.itjust.works 89 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If i ever get something stuck up my ass while trying to pleasure myself and need medical help to remove it, I will absolutely try to come up with the most convoluted and ridiculous story for how it got there. Not out of embarrasment, but just to give the ER nurses a good laugh.

[–] AngryishHumanoid@reddthat.com 88 points 1 year ago

This sign is bullshit, I accidentally put my prostate massager in my butt all the time, sometimes twice in one day.

[–] li10@feddit.uk 67 points 1 year ago (4 children)

who tf putting a key up there?

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 66 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Sorry, I thought it would unlock it so I could get all the other items out. Guess it was the wrong key though.. ☹️

[–] geogle@lemmy.world 19 points 1 year ago (2 children)
[–] alquicksilver@lemmy.world 25 points 1 year ago

No, it got stuck because it's dark, so I had to look for it with my flashlight.

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

It jingles when I fart. Also there's this weird squeaky sound.

On an unrelated note, I can't seem to find my rubber duckie...

[–] moosetwin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

consider putting a magnet up there to get the key

Where else can you store them while swimming?

[–] absGeekNZ@lemmy.nz 13 points 1 year ago

Ah the old prison wallet. Classic.

[–] Eyeuhnluuung@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I work in a ER and can assure you people high on meth put all sorts of crazy shit in their butt.

[–] Deconceptualist@lemm.ee 17 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Dare I ask, why? I mean obviously meth addicts aren't known for their shrewd decisions in general, but is there some sensory or cognitive change in particular that compels them to put foreign objects in their butts more than say, alcoholics would?

[–] Eyeuhnluuung@lemmy.world 21 points 1 year ago

Mainly the intense drive for sexual stimulation on meth combined with disinhibition and just general bad decision making.

[–] themoken@startrek.website 4 points 1 year ago

Also curious. Possibly just sex / masturbation getting out of hand with intense stimulants, or maybe meth induced paranoia makes putting something in your ass for safe keeping seem reasonable... Meth heads generally aren't hanging out in the safest conditions.

I heard about a guy once, who was a POW, and his friend wanted him to keep a watch for his son so he shoved it way up there.

The reference for the younger among us.

[–] DarkCloud@lemmy.world 33 points 1 year ago (3 children)

...and I got news for you, if someone is trying to get you to pull marbles out their ass, then that's their fetish... Because no one is worried that small marble sized balls won't eventually come out naturally... They're looking to bring attention that they're up there (and possibly to get someone to try to get them out). People are weird.

[–] frezik@midwest.social 31 points 1 year ago

Given US healthcare, that's gotta be more expensive than a leather fetish.

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

Speaking from experience? 🤔

[–] Neon@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Dude, if I have anything up my ass, I'm going to the hospital asap.

"it's going to come out anyway" sounds like Darwin-award last words

[–] Cagi@lemmy.ca 27 points 1 year ago (2 children)

"Million to one shot, doc"

It was a fusilli Jerry

[–] sundray@lemmus.org 24 points 1 year ago

"We are discreet. But we also think it's funny."

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 15 points 1 year ago

... that sign ... they just kept it because it seemed funny after they retrieved it from a pacient.

[–] Alawami@lemmy.ml 17 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Fastest salmonella in the west.

[–] ruk_n_rul@monyet.cc 4 points 1 year ago

It comes out the way it went in 😂

What if it's fertilized?

[–] GooberEar@lemmy.wtf 4 points 1 year ago

Scramble it.

Because pineapples are a bit trickier, obviously

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 19 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Especially if there is already a pizza in there - people get rally mad & very political

[–] ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Why would you ruin a perfectly good pineapple by putting it on pizza when you can ruin it by shoving it up your ass

[–] ArmoredThirteen@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 year ago

Relatively smooth, round and 'filling', comes with a convenient stem to hold on to that definitely won't break on extraction

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

... I can only assume it's like peanut butter with dogs, but you know, for horses.

Exactly, I don't get the appeal.

[–] Yorick@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 year ago

Missed the opportunity to put a golden watch on that picture.

[–] rockhstrongo@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I know a medical coder that works exclusively with an ER. Oh the stories I've heard...
