Didn't that obstetrician doctor know any better than to eat 7 buns...


...on an empty stomach, followed by water, which would make them expand into a near-lethal bubble of dough and yeast in his gut?? You'd think a doctor would know better...

Well, you have to consider he probably hadn't eaten anything in days and when he saw all those buns, his gut instinct told him to gorge himself while the food's still there. These were hard times these people were living in.



Men are like bank accounts. Without a lot of money, they don't generate much interest.

I take it you've never been that hungry :p. I haven't been THAT hungry, but I'm pretty sure I would've gorged as well.

Ever seen a thirsty person drink a big bottle of water all at once? It would be better to drink it slowly, but they can't help themselves.

And then to wash it down with boiling hot water. Even before seeing what was going to happen next, I was saying aloud "Don't drink that..." Ugh.
