      Is that a common joke? Some people at work just told me that their safe word is pineapple.

    With your rectum. The man sees you crush a piece of ice with that sphincter, you command some respect for the rest of the procedure.

    I had to get my ass checked and the doctor was surprised at my lack of shame or discomfort with it. When it was over he said “don’t come back just for this okay?”

    You’re going to want to avoid looking like a huge ass. I’d avoid jokes that shit on their career choice.

      If you still can’t figure it out, ask the janitor.

    Ask them if they’re going to buy you dinner first.

    Ask them what their Twitch handle is because your friends want to watch the live-stream.

    Colonoscopy is easy, it’s endoscopy that felt like near dear experience (I didn’t take the sedative= fail). Worth it though. Also the Dr’s and techs were far to busy talking about the next hairpin bend like they were rally driving. The satnav on the screen shows how far the scope has gone, I shit you not it really looks like the old Nokia snake gane. And when you have nitrous gas it all becomes very funny.

      I once woke up during an upper endoscopy. It wasn’t a pleasant experience. The anesthesiologist noticed pretty fast though and put me back out.

        Ouch. I did the whole thing without anaesthetic, but didn’t want to. I can’t stand needles but thought I would have gas+air for the upper endoscopy! (only gave me gas for the Colonoscopy, but it felt nice to get high after being choked with the snake torch).

        But holy shit it was terrifying, never doing that again.
