Can’t find the team either on Wiki or Google. Cite?

Shabbes.  
MF conspiracy theory (that you don’t necessarily believe, but just maybe gives you a good laugh).

Flat Earthers. I’d be convinced that they are all trolling us Poe’s Law style, except that some do seem 100% sincere. LOL hilarious in either event.

There are a lot of close runners-up, and most people would probably choose the invention of the wheel, or something, but I don’t know anything about that. Right now, I’m going to choose the Salk vaccine. The whole country rallied trying to raise money for a Polio vaccine, and when Salk did develop one, he gave it away. He chose not to profit from it. Then, everyone came out in droves again to make sure that children got it, and Polio became almost non-existent in the US. There was a scandal with some poorly prepared vaccine, called “The Cutter Incident,” and then the AMA made the bad decision to switch to the Sabin vaccine, but the switch back to the Salk vaccine, and the way the Cutter incident was handled shows how there actually is quality control in vaccine prep, and that doctors do listen to people with genuine grievances, and not just a lot of claptrap.

OK. That’s enough of a text wall.  
Fave medical accomplishment that has personally touched your life.

Effexor - Sorry, but I have nothing sexy to offer such as a life-saving organ transplant or a mechanical limb. All my ailments are usual for my age group. Effexor at least keeps me from drowning in despair.

Now that both my parents are dead, and my brother is too young to remember, no one else gets how my father was a totally different person when he spoke Russian. My mother and I laughed when we tried to explain it to people, but apparently you had to see it to get why it was funny. No one ever laughs when we would tell the story.

Glunderglitch - my friend Todd and I were stoned while watching Gulliver’s Travels. I kept giggling at the giant farmer’s daughter’s name, which is actually Glumdalclitch. To this day, Todd and I will say “Glunderglitch” to each other and break out laughing. We have several other inside jokes like “Tick Boy” and “puling.”

Let’s keep a good thing going. More favorite jokes or funny memories that only you get (or maybe just one other person).

English is my wife’s fourth language, so at times, there are perfectly innocuous things I say that sound hilarious to her and she repeats them roaring with laughter. They become leitmotifs. Like when we play Yahtzee, and I have to put a “stupid nine” in the 4-of-a-kind box.

Favorite animal with four letters in its name.

Fawn…the name of my cute lil Chihuahua. Named because she looked like a baby dear.

Favorite method of death in a horror movie. (Ok, I guess it doesn’t HAVE to be a horror movie, but it’s close to Hween, so you know, whatever)

The medical examiner will determine that when the rest of the body is located.  
Favorite movie to watch around Halloween.
