ERtards: Documenting the retards that visit the emergency room.

Submit your story

- Concept : This is a place for you to vent about your experiences. There are no taboo subjects, so feel free to vent as we know there are a lot of goobers out there. Remember, there are plenty of medical professionals that are total tards too. So this is open to patients as well as staff members.
- If your story isn't published on our website, it is likely because it contains racist comments or poor spelling. Anything else we are pretty ok with.

So was Triaging the other day - flat out as usual. I look up to see an anxious youn man standing in front of me. I read with slight humour his T-shirt - which said "Let's play carpenter and get Hammered....." Began the triage and got basics from the lad. Chief complaint? 4 inch Nail gun nail through his right thumb and hand..... He was REALLY regretting his fashion choices by the time we finished - have his photo hanging in staff tea room and his Darwinian award application...

They'd reject him flat out over at the Darwin Awards - they have strict requirements that awardees and runners-up manage to remove themselves from the gene pool. While non-posthumous awards are possible, especially for men, this guy left with his gonads presumably intact, and thus can still pass on his genes for sartorial irony.
