Screaming like a little girl
Years ago, I got knocked off my motorbike in the middle of Bristol. I made my way to the emergency room in Filton Hospital, and the nurses couldn't have been nicer to me as they checked me over and took x-rays.
However, there was another motorcyclist being treated in a room down the corridor. The screams of pure agony he was making outclassed any horror movie. When I asked why our treatment differed so, the nurse replied that - since I had been wearing leathers, gloves, boots, etc., they felt sorry for me and looked after me. However, the other guy was wearing a T-shirt and shorts. Because they thought he was a twat, they
were cleaning the gravel out of his skin with raw Dettol and a scrubbing brush.
