Now, there was no need for that...Tell us about the times when an already difficult situation has been made worse for no good reason. Pollollups writes, "As if being given a muscle relaxant and trapped in an MRI tube wasn't bad enough: whilst thus immobilised, they played me Dido."

More fun with hospitalsI was playing (American) football, when a freak accident left me with a fully dislocated hip. After a 30-minute ride to the hospital, the nurses stuck me in the x-ray room and left. For 45 minutes. With no painkillers.
Finally, a nurse came back in and did the x-ray, and then left again. For another half hour. Still with no painkillers.
By this time, I'm completely pissed off. The nurse came back one more time, with the developed x-ray, and proceeds to hang it up and look at it (of course, in a position where I couldn't also see it).
So I ask her, what's the x-ray show?
The nurse just looked at me and said "I can't say, but there's a reason you're in pain."
Let's just say, she's lucky I couldn't get up off the table.
Oh, and I looked at the x-ray later, and it's completely obvious what happened. It was completely unnecessary for her to hide it from me.
