I would have paid good money to have seen that nurse's reaction to a response such as this one:

"No, ma'am. Paradise would be where she couldn't talk because I had my dick down her throat. But maybe you'd like to offer yours?"

Assuming that you had just saved your game, that is.

Y'know, I said something to the effect of "actually, it sucks." with a glare. Which she ignored entirely.

Next time I use your line.

Does anybody at the ER here actually know what to do in any case that doesn't involve drunkenness?

Yes, they do. I took a friend of mine to the S.C. E.R at the end of finals week because he was found incoherently and randomly wandering around the dorm. They eventually (after he woke up fine the next morning) figured out it was due to sleep deprivation. Didn't stop them from testing him for everything, including meningitis, in the meantime.

He was lucky! I've had a friend with undiagnosed appendicitis in 2006, another one with an obstruction around 2003, and a third that often goes in the last four years due to seizures that can't always get attended. They told me to come back on monday when I broke my wrist in 2007. Yeah.

I don't think the staff there is particularly bad, but there is definitely a local lifestyle that takes up and wastes all of the scarce resources.
