It's the old joke about the two guys driving through the desert

Bill and Sam are driving through the desert, and as they are nearing a town, Bill says to Sam “pull the car over. I have to take a whiz.” While he’s peeing, a rattlesnake comes and bites him right on the tip of his you know what. He starts screaming that snake bit me that snake bit me, they jump back in the car and Sam turns the key and the battery is dead. “What are we gonna do? What are we gonna do“ Sam says, “I’ll run into town find somebody and get some help. He runs and runs and runs along the desert road until he finally gets to town and he’s running through the town and he’s sweating and he sees the doctors office so he runs in and says “Doc Doc! My friend just got bitten by a snake right on the tip of his you know what. What can I do? What can I do“ and the doctor replies “you have to suck that poison out or your friend’s gonna die.” So Sam runs and runs and runs back to the car and there’s Bill waiting for him. He says Sam, what did the doctor say? And Sam says “The doc said, ‘Bill you’re gonna die’”.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
