Never Learn Tweet I think my wife came up with this one while we were watching some TV show that used the phrase from the first panel.
No Bad Advertising Tweet We were on a company picnic to the local AA minor league team (“The Bladder Spasms”) and we kept hearing all these endorsements for foul balls, double plays, walks, seemingly every conceivable play. I suggested we do this (since we are a hospice company). The marketing staff didn’t go for it. The funny thing was that, about five minutes after I suggested it, the local team actually pulled off a suicide squeeze!
It Means, Um … Give Me a Minute… Tweet According to medicine.net: “Abbreviation meaning ‘when necessary’, from the Latin “‘pro re nata’.“
Short of WHAT?!? Tweet This one really took me by surprise the first time I saw it written on a patient’s chart. I could not for the life of me figure out what else “S.O.B.” might stand for.
Initial Assessment Tweet I think of this every time I have to do an “initial assessment” of a patient at work. I mean, it should take like 2 seconds, right?

Powerful Smellers Tweet The information in the first panel is true. So far, it’s just been tried with a few beagles (like, 3), but wouldn’t it be great if it can be expanded?
Heck’s Kitchen Tweet Or maybe Dave Ramsey defaulting on a gambling debt. Or a politician keeping a promise.
Veggie Vet Tweet I know that pet psychiatrists are a real thing. Do they have veterinary licenses or is it a completely different thing?
