A Maddeningly Short Name
(My five-year-old brother has a huge fever and a high heart rate after what we thought was a little cold. We take him into the ER and are talking to the nurse when this exchange happens.)
Nurse: “Can you tell me your name?”
Brother: “[Shortened Version of name].”
Nurse: “Okay, is it [Full Version of name]?”
Brother: *deadpan* “Only when they’re mad at me.”
(It took a second for the nurse to compose himself to continue checking him over. I, however, was doubled over laughing as my mom just shook her head.)
