Doc, I need to see you about my arm. I can't extend it all the way, and when I try, pain shoots up my back.
DOCTOR:
I'm sorry that I have to break this to you like this, but… (takes off glasses) …you're descending into a world of madness. This is why your arm flails so, much like a chicken wing would flail when the head of said chicken is removed. Or, for that matter, when the said chicken descends into a world of madness.
PATIENT:
(Long pause) So, I know you're not a dentist, but could you pull a tooth that's been bothering me?
DOCTOR:I already have.
