275 | Exam

October 3 275/366

Time for your check up!

I totally missed the fact that September was prostate cancer month - every man over 50 needs a digital rectal exam (I guess I'm 20 years early) and a PSA to screen for prostate cancer.

Today I did the shot to be my addition for the 365 Men's Group - At Work shots, plus it kinda fits the Hump Day for FGR. Patient me is kinda humpin the exam table.

Oh, well. I thought it would be funny to do this shot, so here it is.

    OMG! I love love love your sense of humor! This shot is just so perfect! You know when I'm getting a pap they always say it's easier if you relax. You might want to tell that to the patient you - cause he looks a little - clenched :)

    This is awesome! Great creativity and sense of humor in this shot. Reminds me of the scene in Fletch when Chevy Chase gets an exam...

    People wonder how I can clean teeth! I say there are MUCH worse places to go! Way to take one for the team and get the message out. You should be smiling, though.... you must be tense.

  29. The Doctr (44 months ago | reply)

    I did actually undergo this exam a few years ago, and whew! It's tough to relax. Unless the doc is gentle. Ha!
    Thanks! I hope it amused!
    Does this make you think you missed your calling?
    I don't know; this might scare some guys from having the exam.
    Us docs can have a weird sense of humor.
    Ooo. I've only done a few of those. Hope your doc was good and it went OK!
    Yeah, we'll just stay away from that altogether!
    HaHa - thanks!
    Thanks!
    Gotta love the docs!
    At least I wasn't the one humping =Tom= today. Ha!
    Thanks!
    I'm glad I can entertain. Laughter is the best medicine!
    I hadn't thought of that but you are exactly right! Ha!
    Ha! I made three in a row LOL! Thanks!
    I'll leave that one alone, too. Ha!
    Shouldn't you be off gambling instead of looking at me make fun of myself?!
    There are days...
    Aren't we lucky, right? Thanks for stopping by!
    If someone laughed at me today, my job is done!
    Just what I wanted on explore. Yippee [insert sarcasm here].
    Homer had his yet? Hee, hee.
    Ha! Thanks I think!
    From personal experience, no I can't relax. Ha!

    Wonderful, Mark! I knew I could count on you to don the "silly mantle" now that I'm trying to tone it down and be respectable and whatnot. So is that an a-okay sign, or is that how big the patient's anus is. Sorry, a little graphic, I know. But inquiring minds (kinda) want to know :P

    I was thinking this week with you doing the light and shadow thing that someone should be funny. But I'm definitely not as popular as you. ;-) After today, though, that may have changed (in a bad way for me). I just the OK for fun. Read into it whatever you want!

  32. =Tom= (44 months ago | reply)

    Great pic. Nice cloning too :)

  33. _davidh_ (44 months ago | reply)

    LMAO!!! Superb work and very funny

  34. The Doctr (44 months ago | reply)

    Ho, boy. Thanks again for the comments and faves. This has quickly become my most popular photo to date. And yesterday I was stuck at position 69 on explore. Yup. How appropriate. I see today I moved to 55, so that's better. Thanks again everybody!

  35. ~*Leah*~ (44 months ago | reply)

    Ha! My husband had this done and there was much complaining and indignation afterwards. I was just not able to muster up much sympathy for him :P

    Great cloning job, by the way!

    Ahuahauahauhau!!! Great! ☺☺

    Awesome shot and congrats on Explore!

    [from one doc to another, though I haven't done a rectal since med school, thank God]

  39. The Doctr (44 months ago | reply)

    I'm a noob to cloning, but I too think I did ok on this one! Thanks!
    Thanks!
    Arigato!
    Do I really want this one in explore, though? And Ha! You're lucky! Thanks!
