[Humour] Joke du Jour

[el punal]

A woman goes to the doctor as she is concerned about her hearing.

The doctor asks “Have you got vertigo?”

“About 20 miles.” the woman replies.


The old ones are the best! Taxi!

Context is everything here.

Clearly ‘have you got vertigo’ was not the first or last thing the doctor uttered.

This stinks of preferential editing with the purpose of producing a witty scenario.

I’m intrigued to know why the doctor asked this question, what was the conversation prior to this utterance?

Doctors aren't what they used to be. Back in the olden days they made the diagnosis rather than asking the patient to do it.

 

[B-right-on]

Shirley it would be over zoom nowadays so the answer is 'no' .

 

[AmexRuislip]

Didn't she make an appointment, rather than just barge in.....

 

[Gabbafella]

So, did she have vertigo or not?
You didn't finish the story.

 

[Mr Bridger]

If you watch Jaws backwards it is a heartwarming story about a shark who gives arms & legs to disabled people.

Who travels 20 miles to see a GP?

Some doctor………. He asks the patient for a diagnosis…….

Doctor doctor , I can’t get my balance

……………………
Are you with Santander .

That is a very fair point and she should register with a GP much closer to her home.

If this is the best, can only imagine how bad today's rejected jokes were.

Well, she went to a spin doctor so they’ll be slant to the story in a roundabout sort of way.

In fairness, the op doesn't say GP. The patient could have been visiting an ear specialist and need to travel to them.

 

[Icy Gull]

Maybe the GP has a speech impediment

 

[Is it PotG?]

This hapless lady goes to visit her GP, and all they can do is interrogate her regarding her U2 album collection and the volume it was played at. Was this in October?

 

[METALMICKY]

If she is hard of hearing and perhaps struggles with context is not just as likely that she replied " no it's rubbish and I much prefer The Joshua Tree " ?

Absolutely brilliant

Me. I can relate to this woman, even though I don't have vertigo.

 

[Barnet Seagull]

Yes but how does the moon cut his hair?
