Tanner Food




To compensate for my boring informational post, I thought I'd include one a bit more humorous.


Being the twit that I am, I was in my scrubs the other night after a long shift and I was searching in our refrigerator for something to eat. (refer to dumbass anonymous post in Emergency Physician = Bartender)


I found this container in the back covered with tin foil.....and my interest was piqued.


When I peeled the foil back, I was suddenly disgusted (and slightly aroused too) as this pubic mass of fungi squirted out of the bowl. It was like 70's porno-bush.


I'd say this was a Tanner 5, maybe even a Tanner 6. (for the non-meds....I don't want to "spoil" the surprise...but here's your link: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/bv.fcgi?rid=endocrin.box.1059)


I didn't know whether to screw it or eat it since I had a semi-erection and some vomit in my throat. (this part is a joke for all of the anon fungus lovers out there). So, knowing that my inlaws were coming the next weekend and my wife would clean the fridge....I covered it up and pushed it back into the fridge!

  4. P.S. HIPAA alert on this post.

    I forgot to include the usual disclaimer, and I don't want 911 to sweat the HIPAA stuff.

    Rather than referring to this "patient" as "former noodle casserole", please call it "Brooke Shields in Pretty Baby".

    There, I feel better.........

  6. I guess you wouldn't have to worry about GC since the penicillin was already there.

  7. I would have had my pants down and a plate and fork ready. Could go either way with that one.

  10. In case you're inspired to do it "yeastie style", here's the relevant link: http://www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mating_of_Yeast
    I love watching them conjugate under the microscope ;)
