kaberettFuckin' radio talk shows. In particular, at the moment we've got dudes saying shit like "doesn't matter if it's offensive as long as it's funny" and "... the experience of being a teenage boy, which I think everyone can identify with -- well, more if you're a boy I guess".
AND I HAVE ANOTHER FIFTEEN MINUTES HERE, and I think the first round of spiro tests --> blood pressure crash, so THAT'S hilarious. As is the bit where, uh, the nurse doing the spiro... is a smoker. Around whom I am having to breathe deeply in close proximity. This isn't causing any problems at all.
eta spirometry still says no response to bronchodilation; got x-ray on Monday, and my lower lungs looked decidedly brighter than upper, but I only glanced at them on my way out the room & am not trained to x-rays etc etc.
