Uh...thanks?

My sister has worked as an R.N. for several years. Throughout those years, the nurses have been given 'thank you' gifts from the hospital that have expressed, shall we say, less appreciation than they were intended to express. One year it was a wool blanket, with the hospital logo on it, that has a nasty smell that no amount of laundering will eliminate. Last year, it was a pair of socks, embroidered with the hospital logo, that didn't match. Two different socks, in one package. Included with the socks was a jar of Ponds age defying cream (because nurses really need it?) and a package of pepperoni. Yes, I said pepperoni. But the best gift of all, and the one no one believes she actually received, is the key chain pictured below:

That is hilarious!
And why a keychain? Why not a refill and storage box of personal wipes or something?

But what if you don't want a BM in the AM? Could you take it in the AM for a BM in the PM??

Just fast for 24 hours, and then eat 1/2 of a watermelon. It takes 30 minutes.... Does anyone else learn these things the hard way?
