What's that? You only accept positive numbers between zero and one under your square root symbol? You won't take any other numbers? Isn't that...

...a little discriminant?

No, the HAEMA is for when there's an accident and someone gets stabbed.

Heard this one during the reading of donations at the end of High Rollers: Aerois #122  'One Month Later' . Credit to MK13 wolf.

I was in Spain not to long ago, and I was staying in a lovely hotel in the middle of nowhere. I had a heart attack and I was luckily saved by a doctor who worked at the hotel. When I was released from hospital I went back to thank her. "Thank you for saving my life. I'm quite surprised that a doctor works at this place in the middle of nowhere."  She responded "Nobody expects the Spainish in-physician."

An Englishman, a Frenchman, a Spaniard, and a German are all standing on a narrow sidewalk, watching a street performer do some excellent juggling. The juggler notices that the four people have a very poor view, so he stands up on a large wooden box and asks "Can you all see me better now?"
