During my annual check-up I asked the Doctor, "Do you think I'll live a long and healthy life then?"
He replied, "I doubt it somehow. Mercury is in Uranus right now."
I said, "I don't go in for any of that astrology bullshit nonsense."
He replied, "Neither do I. My thermometer just broke."

Hahaha! And, ouch! That's more than slight discomfort.

I actually had one break into in my mouth when I was a kid.
Scared me half to death until I found out that it wasn't the same mercury that is highly toxic.

I went to see the doctor.

He said Ive got 30 days to live, that'll be $500.

I said I didn't have $500.

He gave me another 30 days.

I didn't know there were different types of mercury. Doesn't matter. I don't want to swallow any of it. Just being cautious. When the Dairy Queen comes out with mercury ice cream maybe I'll give it a shot.

There aren't "different types of mercury". Mercury hasn't been used in thermometers for G*d only knows how long. Thermometers are filled with an colored alcohol.

When I was a kid, I broke a thermometer on purpose. We kids used the mercury to turn pennies silver. Did it with our bare hands. I'm not dead yet, as far as I can tell, so ... what went right?
