A woman is rushed to the hospital in critical condition. Her husband waits in the waiting room. After a few minutes, the doctor comes out and asks his assistant for a screwdriver, which concerns the husband. After a couple more minutes, the doctor reenters the room asking for pliers. The man grows worried and begins to pace in circles. A little later, the doctor bursts through the doors screaming for a hammer. The husband, in a state of frenzied terror, runs up to the surgeon and asks, “Doctor, what the heck is wrong with my wife?” “I don't know,” replies the flustered doctor, “I can't get my damn cabinet open.”
一个危重的女病人被紧急送到医院。她的丈夫守候在等待室里。几分钟以后,医生出来让助手找螺丝刀。这使丈夫有点担心。又过了一会儿,医生又出来找钳子。这使丈夫更加担心,开始在屋子里转圈走。稍后,医生从门里面冲出来,高声喊着要锤子。这时候,处于极度恐惧状态的丈夫冲到手术医生面前问道:“医生,我太太究竟出了什么问题?”这位紧张不安的医生说:“我不知道。我那该死的柜子打不开。”
