Never trust a doctor
While at uni, me and some mates were sitting around discussing the Holocaust (as you do when you're young, pretentious and stoned). Suddenly, one bloke (who, in my defence, I had never met before) sat up and said, “Well, it's a lesson learned, innit? I mean, safety in numbers? Tell that to six million Jews.”
After the inevitable guilty snorting, one of my mates sat bolt upright and said, “That's not funny. My grandfather died at Belsen.”
Cue total silence, until he continued, “Yeah, he fell 60 foot out a guard tower.”
Sheesh.
