I was surveying a shopping center and took a lunch break at their only burger joint. I had a minimum burger with a huge drink, and I watched as the next guy, who had to weigh 300 pounds, ordered the triple with bacon and cheese.

And here I am feeling guilty for having the plain burger, despite knowing I would walk it off in the next hour.

Compassion now. He weighs 300 lbs because he has a “slow metabolism”.

Someone should probably be sued. Which tangentially related party has the deepest pockets? Anyone?

It is for real, and the Arizona Board of Nursing is not laughing. Lawsuit threats and all. While I know it’s a joke, and apparently much needed to get any business at this pig stye,it yet again reinforces what my 18 years in nursing have impressed upon me.
We’re apparently nothing more than fantasy fodder for those with lackluster imaginations.

I say fine, but just remember that next time you code.
