10 things only a nurse would say

How do you KNOW you’re a nurse? When you find yourself uttering any or all of these phrases that only nurses will “get!”
10 things only a nurse would say:

1. At a party, when somebody tells “the grossest story ever”: “Is that the best you can do?”

2. Before another party, to your significant other: “Remember, I’m an accountant.”

3. To any child, anywhere: “Are you bleeding? Are there any parts missing? No? You’ll be fine.”

4. At the end of the day: “Let me just (CLUNK) unload (TINKLE) my (CRUNCH CRUNCH) pockets and I’ll be (SMASH KERTHUNK WOBBLE) right with (SLAM) you.”

5. Tasting the punch at a wedding: “They call this spiked?”
