It's all a matter of perspective

7:15am, first visit of the day at the peds urgent visit center. 17 year old male with no known medical problems.

Me: Hi! I'm Dr. Scopes. What brings you in today?

Him: So. . . ::dramatic sigh:: I'm trying to get it on with my lady last night and, I couldn't get it up for long enough.

Me: . . . . . Um. ::blink blink:: . . . . .

Him: Like she's hot and everything and it's all cool, but then when we go to do it, it just doesn't work any more.

Me: Well, we'll definitely try to help you out, but you know, this is the urgent visit center, it's really for people who are sick. You should probably talk to your regular doctor about this.

Him: Ma'am. It's an emergency to me.
