J.D. Quote #122

Quote from J.D. in My Balancing Act

J.D.: So judging from the ataxia dysarthria, I've concluded that Mr. Yeager is suffering from kuru.
Dr. Cox: Kuru?
J.D.: Kuru.
Dr. Cox: Kuru?
J.D.: Yes, kuru.
Dr. Cox: Wow, I'd actually never thought of that.
J.D.: Hell, yeah.
Dr. Cox: Were you aware that the only documented cases of kuru were members of a cannibalistic tribe in Papua New Guinea?
J.D.: I was not.
Mr. Yeager: Actually, doc, I was in New Guinea last week.
J.D.: Really?
Mr. Yeager: No.

Janitor: You gotta be kidding me! There's a waste of a gift certificate. Cancel the cobbler!

Quote from Dr. Cox

Dr. Cox: Newbie, do you happen to know what a zebra is?
J.D.: That patient just mocked me.
Dr. Cox: It's a diagnosis of a ridiculously obscure disease when it's much more likely that the patient has a common illness presenting with uncommon symptoms. In other words, if you hear hoof beats, you just go ahead and think horsies, not zebras. Mm-kay, Mr. Silly Bear?

Quote from Dr. Cox

J.D.: Well, you know that means a lot coming from you, Mr. Right-here-with-me two-hours-after-his-shift- and-last-Monday-night-too guy.
Dr. Cox: What?
J.D.: You heard me.
Dr. Cox: Newbie, what're you saying? That you want to be like me? Do you understand that I just barely want to be like me?
