Think Before You Ink, Part 5
(I go into a doctor’s surgery about a terrible cough.)
Doctor: “Right, we just need to look you over; won’t be a minute.”
(After a quick examination, I see him frowning.)
Me: “What is it?”
Doctor: “You need to get tested for HIV and hepatitis.”
Me: *as I am a virgin* “What?!”
Doctor: “Your tattoo. You may have had a dirty needle poking you. I need the address of where you got that.”
Me: “Listen, I—”
Doctor: “And since you have tattoos, it’s likely you’ve used drugs at one point, so we need to check you for HIV.”
Me: “Look—”
Doctor: “You young people think you’re never getting these diseases, but you do; I’ve seen a LOT of young people who got illnesses from needles—”
Me: “It’s a rub-on!”
