Same Name Game
Arrived at my Dr. appt a little early this morning, signed-in and sat down. To my surprise, they called my name right on time. I walked up and started the insurance card song-and-dance. As i'm doing this, I notice a very tall and very old man looming over my right shoulder. The nurse saw me jump a little when I discovered him and asked if she could help him.
Kids these days with their video games and fancy appointments.
Fart: Yeah! You called my name!By this time the whole room is watching and I can hear giggling. He didn't budge from his prosecution stand, so I happily filled out all my paperwork with this buzzard on my shoulder. When I sat down, the one-man staring contest continued from across the room while I played tetris on my phone.
Nurse: Oh, we meant this gentleman (nods at me). You have the same first names.
Fart: Yeah, that's my name too!
Nurse: Sir, we'll be right with you if you want to have a seat
Fart: (now staring down at me about 8 inches off my right ear) You got a lot of nerve!
Me: She meant me. I have a 9:20 appointment. It's 9:20.
Fart: Who do you think you are??
Me: A guy with the same first name as you. And an appointment to be in this exact space and time.
