Nurses Humor

Published

Two nurses enjoying a beer after a shift, chatting, with one of them being a "Schlitz stirrer" who finds pleasure in inflicting pain.

This comic relays absurd dark humor, in that nurses are suppose to be nurturing and not hurtful.

The cartoon is also a statement about some posts here on AN.com.

A request has been made that I compile some cartoons that I believe to be my best.

Now, "best" is subjective. What one would consider a treasure, another may think it trash, right?

Rifling through my Trove of Toons, I decided that the criteria for my best would be ones that entertain me the most, make me think, or something which I believe to be universal. So, I plan to post on the Blue Side my favorite non-nursing cartoons and on the Yellow Side my favorite nursing cartoons.

I also plan to give some background on what inspired the cartoon, for the vast majority of my cartoons are based on actual events.

It's also great fun when other members chime in and carry the humor ball.

Here are two different instances from two different threads where Guy In Babyland extended the fun:

I never thought about it, but Clark Kent would need a new place to change into Superman since there are very few phone booths anymore.

Psych patients can be such fun!

I was making a round last night and found the Gero Psych Patient in the last room had raised the bed to its highest level.

"Whatcha doin' there?" I asked.
