I was prepared for an important scan. Me on a gurney. The scan nurse/technician, a surly lady, said out loud, “The computer is all phooked. It needs a dooosh.”
Scared me half to death. I asked if it was a Microsoft System. “Ya, happens all the time. Do you mind waiting?”
That’s what they told me about the lottery machine. “Works fine, Ma’am! Oh, it still won’t read the pages. Oh, well, come get your refund – AGAIN!” (fourth time this MONTH!)
Reminds me of our honeymoon. On the second day my wife decided to use a tanning bed to get an even all over tan on her Irish skin. It was defective and burned her pretty bad. At least we had the first night. Wink, wink, say no more.
The Communications squadron at Tempelhof airport, impressed the importance of turning off the radar before working on it. They took people to the roof and tossed an apple or potato up in the air into the beam and watched it explode.

Coincidentally and ironically, the patient’s name is ‘Ray’. He’s now an ex-man.

There’s nothing wrong with the operation of the equipment. The problem is that it’s incorrectly labeled.

He may be overdone but he’s still got his head up. Also, doctors don’t use those reflector things anymore.

Ray is now X-Ray.
Lesson: never trust a machine that has an X in front of your name.

When you saw the repairman was a hunchback named Igor and was dragging one foot, that should have been a clue
