15. Somehow I doubt this doctor will really get into it.
Fri Oct 9, 2020, 11:10 AM
Oct 2020

I had a dr appt this summer-- on the phone. I had it on speaker, and my spouse and a friend were in the kitchen talking. The doctor asked a few preliminary questions, then launched into the good stuff. You know, "Do you have regular bowel movements? What is the consistency? Color of the stool? How often do you urinate?"

The spouse came out and said, "Can you go into the bathroom if you're going to talk about that?"

How much you want to bet this doctor won't get into anything like the real questions doctors ask, and also won't tell Trump to take off his clothes so he can look for skin cancer, etc.
