A Meat Coochie Would Have Just Been Too Much
Food & Drink, Hospital, Language & Words, USA, Washington | Healthy | November 2, 2017
(I work at a hospital, and it’s my job to get the food orders for all the patients. This occurs one morning during the breakfast rush.)
Me: “Hi, thank you for calling room service. My name is [My Name]. Can I get your name and room number, please?”
(The patient tells me their name and room number.)
Me: “All right, what can I get for you this morning!”
Patient: “I want the coochie!”
Me: “I’m sorry… you want what?”
Patient: “The coochie! The vegetable coochie!”
Me: “The… quiche?”
Patient: “Yeah, that!”
(The rest of the order went on normally, but I had to mute myself because I was laughing so hard.)
