Notes on an overheard conversation while leaving a doctor's office

“There! Your flu shot is over with. That wasn't so bad, was it?”

“What? You didn't hear my blood-curdling screams?”

“No.”

“Hrm. They must have good sound-proofing in the stabity-stab room.”

“I bet it didn't hurt at all. I didn't feel it when I got my flu shot.”

“It was the pain of a thousand suns searing through my skin.”

“That was just the alcohol wipe.”
