New Doctor Visit
 

I recently picked a new primary care physician. After two visits and
exhaustive lab test, he said I was doing "fairly well" for my age.



A little concerned about that comment, I couldn't resist asking him, "Do
you think I'll live to be 80?"



He asked, "well, do you smoke tobacco or drink beer or wine?"

"Oh no", I replied. "I've never done either."



Then he asked, "Do you eat rib-eye steaks and barbecued ribs?"

I said, "No, I heard that all red meat is very unhealthy."



Do you spend a lot of time in the sun, like playing
golf/sailing/ballooning/motorcycling/rock climbing?"

"No I don't", I said.



He said, "Do you gamble, drive fast cars, or sexually fool around?"

"No", I said. "I have never done any of those things."



He looked at me and said, "Then why do you give a shit if you live to be
80?"

No kidding.

fucking hilarious.

"Eat right, stay fit, die anyway :D"

That quote comes to mind.

That's fantastic. It really shows where those health nuts are missing the boat.

great joke.

Nice one!

Very nice

Very good one. I'll pass it along.

HAHA!! So true! :D

lol heh i saw that one coming although it still delivered a good laugh

Dr. is right on.

There has to be a happy medium somewhere folks. This is a good joke but we can't take it literally to rationalize an unhealthy lifestyle. We have to find a middle ground that enables us to benefit from the efforts towards a healthy lifestyle but temper that with the leeway to enjoy the days we have while living.... A conundrum if I ever heard one.

True, how true

Good, clean jokes are such a rarity these days.

right on

great joke, live it up.
