The Attention Deficit Disorder Thread

Cool.

Went to see a doctor, on the listings his timings are 8:30am - 10:30am....so I show up there at 8:30am.....and the nurse said that he doesn't show up until 9:30am....fucker!!...so now I'm back home.

 

I'd be pissed!

I love snow as long as I don't have to drive in it.

I heard a joke once: Man goes to doctor. Says he's depressed. Says life is harsh and cruel. Says he feels all alone in a threatening world. Doctor says, "Treatment is simple. The great clown Pagliacci is in town tonight. Go see him. That should pick you up." Man bursts into tears. Says, "But doctor... I am Pagliacci." Good joke. Everybody laugh. Roll on snare drum. Curtains.
