Overheard In The Emergency Department

10 comments

Ambulance Driver: "Well man, looks like you're in good hands. Good luck to you, and here's to better luck in choosing female companionship in the future."

Stabbing Victim: "Yeah, like a girlfriend that won't stab me. That's the second one."

AD: "Maybe you ought to have them fill out a questionnaire or something, like 'Do you feel like sharp weapons are an appropriate means of confliction resolution?' or something along those lines."

SV (chuckling): "I don't think that's an option on eHarmony."

AD: "It oughta be, right on up there with 'likes puppies' and 'social drinker' and 'prefers theatre to sporting events.'"

    Ouch… THAT profile of his ‘must’ have a loon magnet in it…

    absolutely true! we had a run where we dropped the patient off- cleaned the truck and then got the call to come back and get them for return transfer- in about 20 minutes time

    So if you have a history of women attacking you with a blade then something in your screening process is not working. Or this guy has no screening process at all.

  • Kaerius

    Either a bad screening problem… or a bad conduct problem. Just saying the girl may have felt the need to defend herself.

    If I remember the commercial correctly, E-Harmony claims to match people on “29 dimensions.”  Perhaps they should take AD’s advice and add one regarding weapons and conflict resolution.

    It’s obvious he logged on he e-Disharmony.com by mistake. Where they put the fun in dysfunctional relationships.

    Seeing as how the argument occurred at the patient’s house, he fled to his mother’s house, and the girlfriend followed him to his mother’s house an hour later wielding a kitchen knife…

    … I don’t much think the self-defense argument will fly.
