Sunday is the place to come for weekly laughs. The rules are simple, just have fun.
This is a great opportunity to get to know other bloggers and have a laugh or two in the process. Here is how it works: Laugh and Link Up!
The Small Brown Bottle:
The other day I went over to a nearby CVS Pharmacy. When I got there, I went straight back to the back of the store to where the Pharmacists’ Counter is located and took out my little brown bottle along with a teaspoon and laid them both ontothe counter. The Pharmacist came over smiled and asked if he could help me.
I said, “Yes! Could you please taste this for me?”
Being I’m a senior citizen, I guess the Pharmacist just went along with me, and picked up the spoon and put a tiny bit of the liquid on his tongue and swilled it around. Then with a stomach-churning look on his face he
spit it out on the floor and began coughing.
When he finally was finished, I looked him right in the eye asked, “Now, does that taste sweet to you?”
The pharmacists, shaking his head back and forth with a venomous look in his eyes yelled, “HECK NO!”
So I said, “Oh thank God! That’s a real relief! My Doctor told me to get my urine tested for sugar!”
Well, I can never go back to that CVS, but I really don’t care though, because they aren’t very friendly there anyway.

Have a weetastic Silly Sunday Sandee :-h
You think? Bwahahahahaha. 🙂
Oh my goodness, did you really did that? Ha ha ha thank goodness, it is a great joke!
No, it's just a joke Nancy. 🙂
LOL I had no idea you could get your urine tested for sugar for free at CVS. Thanks for sending me off to work with a laugh this morning
Well, he know now Ann. 🙂
LOL @ Ann's comment. 😀
Have a brilliant day. Sandee! x0x0
Yes, Ann has a wicked sense of humor like you do. 🙂
Huff ! 🙂
You never know what those seniors can do for you:)
This is very true Joy. 🙂
Now that was a laugh out loud one. Yikes. Sandee, you and Zane and Little Bit have a great day.
It sure is Marg. You have a great day too. 🙂
That got a gen-u-ine laugh out loud! Yuck……but funny. You always make me smile.
Big hugs, honey…
Yuck and then some. 🙂
I've taken some medicines that taste like that and wondered if the doctor or pharmacist have a clue what they're giving people. Have a blessed day.
Me too, and it's awful. I don't think the makers of medicine care about the taste one bit. 🙂
Yuck, cough, cough, spit, spit. It's not sugar I'll tell you. Ha,ha,ha.
Have a sugary Sunday Sandee.Say hi to your famous couple in the house. See ya.
Cruisin Paul
That was pretty bad wasn't it Paul. Funny though. 🙂
icky bleah! But very funny! Have a sweet day!
It was funny indeed. You have a sweet day too. 🙂
Customer service can be tough.
Yes it can and this joke proves it. 🙂
Hmmm. There's a certain cranky pharmacist at my local CVS that I might… Kidding. I'm kidding! 😀 Love this Sandee! Thanks for starting my morning off with a great laugh. Hope your day is filled with lots of them as well. 🙂
Bwahahahahaha. You're too nice to do something like this. 🙂
Oh, yuck! I knew that wouldn't end well when a pharmacist would taste an unknown liquid. Serves him right. LOL
Yes, you wouldn't get anyone to really taste this, but it's funny. 🙂
Mine has never tasted that sweet either. c-)
You crack me up Odie. 🙂
It's one way to get free testing.
Whatever works. 🙂
Oh my goodness…..LOL!!! 🙂
Yep, it's pretty bad isn't it. 🙂
ewewewewew. I got my first teaching job thanks to the sub in the science room. She played a joke on the kids, taking a drink of a liquid in the lab, then pretending to pass out cold on the floor. She was fired, I was hired.
That pharmacist deserves to drink pee, drinking an unknown liquid. 😉
Good for you and the substitute needed to be fired. Not a good thing to do at all. 🙂
If they catch you at the CVS again, urine trouble.
You're a funny man Jason. 🙂
Ugh!
Double UGH. 🙂
Haha. Well, I guess that taught him not to taste things without asking what they are…
We can hope Stephanie. 🙂
Gah, that's disgusting. But funny.
Just dropping over to send a howdy. 🙂
Yes, it is disgusting, but funny too. 🙂
Oh that is so gross! Poor pharmacist. LOL.
It is gross and that's a dumb pharmacist. 🙂
Funny, but pretty sick.
Very sick Rhonda, very sick. 🙂
Customer service isn't what it used to be.
And now we know why. 🙂
Lol. My youngest daughter is a pharmacy tech at CVS. I'l have to warn her about little old ladies 😉
Back in my college days, in animal physiology class, a story circulated about a professor who stuck his finger in a urine sample to test for this-that-and-the-other. He had the whole class follow suit. After everyone was done, he explained that he had stuck in his pointer finger, but tasted his middle finger. His lesson: don't believe everything you hear or see.
My granddaughter is a pharmacy tech at a hospital in Sonora, CA. She loves it.
You sure can't believe everything you see. Never believe everything you see. 🙂
My daugher laughs at my prof tasting the urine story, but I warn her that it is a cautionary tale. I can't tell them enough to keep their eyes open..
This is very true. People can do the weirdest things. 🙂
weird but funny!
I like weird, but you already know that. 🙂
Nyahahahahahaha!!! oh my 🙂 that is literally urine test.
Yes it is rocks. 🙂
Adorable! xo Catherine
Not for the pharmacist. The price was right though. 🙂
