There's nothing like poking the dead.

God I hope that's not a euphemism...

[wanker4life]

It's something that I happen to do for a living. The dead? Well, they don't mind being poked, cause they're dead.

[onthe_threshold]

Just reassure me you're not fucking them.

[wanker4life]

[Owen's just going to stare long and hard at the guy, and he really can't believe what he just heard.] You got to be fucking with me, I'm not fucking a bunch of stiffs.

[onthe_threshold]

That's what it sounded like, buddy.

[wanker4life]

Maybe if your mind happens to be in the gutter, mate. You don't shag corpses for a living, I hope.

[dr_house]

So long as they're still warm. Otherwise, that's just creepy.

... two snarky doctors in one room. This will be interesting.

[wanker4life]

[Owen just groans.] Hahaha. I ain't fucking them. I'm not even going to take advantage of the barely living.

[onthe_threshold]

Nope, just used to make them.

bwahaha

[dr_house]

But you'd still poke the barely living.

[wanker4life]

I'm not about to complain about your former career choice.

[onthe_threshold]

Good.

I don't think anyone fucks corpses for a living, by the way. Just as a hobby.

the egos!

[wanker4life]

You really aren't that funny. I take this is a joke directed at all of the blokes in the pathology department.

[wanker4life]

[Owen just stares.] So you fuck corpses for a hobby?

[onthe_threshold]

Nope, not me. Other people do. You seemed like the type.

Re: the egos!

[dr_house]

Pathology guys'll poke anything!

[wanker4life]

At least I don't have to worry about wiping the snot off the nose some kid or popping zits.

[fearthepackingchips]

Ehhh just as long as they don't poke you back?

[wanker4life]

Considering what I tend to poke at, I've had a few poke back on occasion.

[fearthepackingchips]

Sounds fun. Or like a day in the life of me! Only I'm usually the poke-ee, not the poke-er. I mean, come on, just 'cause I'm dead doesn't mean I want your grubby fingers all over my insides, yanno? Who knows where you've been.

[Owen's wondering how much he should tell Wade about his own life, the man looks like a total nutter. He crinkles his nose, sure he loves to brag about his exciting job, but rules are rules.]

I can't complain about someone giving me some work to do. Oi! I'll have you know, that I don't wash my hands before digging around in a corpse!

[fearthepackingchips]

I'm not sure how that helps. I might write you a thank you note if you washed up first. Like a real doctor.

[wanker4life]

The dead aren't exactly going to get the sniffles I don't wash-up.

[fearthepackingchips]

Says you. Speaking as a former corpse, I'm not so sure of that.
