Historical Figures in College: King Henry VIII Gets Tested for STDs
Henry VIII at College Infirmary
Henry VIII: I am Henry the VIII, I am, and I need to call upon the Doctor.
Receptionist: All right, just go sit down in the waiting room and the doctor will see you in a moment.
Henry VIII: I be Henry XVIII. I do not wait for a Doctor, nor do I take instructions from a common peasant.
Henry VIII: All right, miss.
Henry enters doctor’s office.
Doctor: So, Henry, you came in yesterday because you complained of some burning during urination?
Henry VIII: Yes my lady.A fire breathed forth from my genitals when I endeavored to clear my body of my excrements.
Doctor: Well, the results of your tests are back…I’m not sure how to say this, so I’m just going to come right out with it.You have an STD.
Henry VII: What be this witchcraft, you speak of? STD?
Doctor: I assure this is not any type of witch craft; in fact this is quite serious.I was hoping to brace your shock with this matter, but I should just come out and say it: You don’t have just one STD.
Henry VIII: How many ravage my bodily existence?
Doctor: Quite a lot, it is in fact quite an exhaustive list… Chlamydia, Syphilis, Hepatitis B and C, Herpes, Crabs, Genital Warts, and Hepatitis.
Henry VIII: Methinks I am in a quandary.
Doctor: That is not all.You are also infected with a rare strain of Gonorrhea found almost entirely in pigs.
Henry VIII: Umm… Methinks there was some muddle with that diagnosis judgment…but let us commence with the leeching.
Doctor: I don’t think you understand the gravity of the situation.
Henry VIII: My father surmounted a fit with the gout. Methinks I can overcome a few, paltry …
Doctor: You’re going to die.
Henry VIII: Oh, Lord, the father.
Doctor: I’m sorry.
Henry VIII: I wish had I told that pig I loved her.
