Honestly! I tell you - you don't want to leave your near and dear with them bitches...
My aunt who suddenly took sick was rushed to the Homagama Hospital and then transferred to the Colombo General Hospital. The staff at the Homagama Hospital didn't allow anyone to go with her, and asked us to come back the General Hospital at 6am; that's during visiting hours. So we went, and after much difficulty found the ward she was in, only to discover that the saline has finished hours before and that since she was unconscious, the needle stuck in her hand had moved around so much, that there was blood down the front of her blouse. So I went to inquire from the nurse as to what condition my aunt was in and whether she could maybe please put in a new saline bottle or help clean up my aunt. But man! She just totally went off at me, told me that it wasn't really my problem, and they she couldn't really be changing the saline over and over again; that she had done her job as far as she was concerned; that there was nothing she was going to do beyond that; if the patient was having difficulty breathing - too bad, etc. And while being extremely pissed off, I was quite alarmed. I'd never met a nurse like that. She didn't give two shits about the patients, she sounded like she hated what she was doing, she completely managed to successfully scream at my mother and everyone there for simply asking what condition my aunt was in.
If the General Hospital didn't have all the equipment and facilities, we would've transferred my aunt a long time ago...but as this point, we have no choice. They still don't know what is wrong with my aunt, and while they perform tests, she has to wait.
What are nurses for? Aren't they supposed to be helping and caring for the sick? All the nurses and even some of the doctors just had such airs it was sickening. It certainly doesn't feel right, when you have to go and beg the doctor on call to come look at the patient...
What gives?

Smaller by 3-5 cm
So now we all know one very good reason why India has the highest number of HIV infections of any nation.
Tis because them Indian men are a tad bit smaller than regular international sizes, owing to condoms simply falling off during the 'process'.
Ha ha ha!
The research reveals that close to 60% of the Indian male population fall short of the international standards by 3-5cms...

'Great Tits'
Any wild guesses from where this was taken? :)
"The research focused on great tits in ten major European cities, including London, Paris, Amsterdam and Prague, and compared them to forest-dwellers."
