Take Two of These and Don't Call Here Anymore

A man with a ladder and saw looks at a tree. He places the ladder against the tree and begins climbing. As he begins sawing off one of the tree limbs "FE-FI-FO-FUM!!" emanates above him.

Wait. That's not a beanstalk. I would just keep sawing that branch off and then just leave that tree alone. I don't need any of the problems that are located at the top of that tree.

One problem I always had with Jack and the Beanstalk is how coincidental it was that the beanstalk grew right where there was a castle in the sky. What are the odds. Are there numerous castles in the sky in this universe?

Brutus is sitting in an exam room with a doctor. Brutus is sitting very awkwardly, manspreading and sitting in a chair that's way too low to the ground. "Have you had any health issues since your last exam, Brutus?" the doctor asks. "My memory seems to get worse every year. Should I be concerned, Doc?" Brutus asks, looking very worried. "Nah. Just forget about it!" the doctor says, smiling, like the health of his patients is a freaking joke to him. Brutus is unamused.
I'm glad the doctor is taking this seriously. That's what I want to spend this $30 copay on.

I have a laundry list of things to talk about with my doctor when I see her since I am a person of a certain age. I'm sure it'll be great.
