Yossarian had everything he wanted in the hospital. The food wasn't too bad, and his meals were brought to him in bed. There were extra rations of fresh meat, and during the hot part of the afternoon he and the others were served chilled fruit juice or chilled chocolate milk. Apart from the doctors and the nurses, no one ever disturbed him. For a little while in the morning he had to censor letters, but he was free after that to spend the rest of each day lying around idly with a clear conscience. He was comfortable in the hospital, and it was easy to stay on because he always ran a temperature of 101. He was even more comfortable than Dunbar, who had to keep falling down on his face in order to get his meals brought to him in bed.

Kinda related, I had surgery a few years back and it required a 3 day hospital stay. It was a glorious, relaxing vacation. No one asked me to do anything, people took care of me, fed me, etc. Recovery pain was worth it. I still remember it fondly.
Comparing it to my regular life is depressing, lol.
- Damn. You’re really selling it to me. Now I want my appendix to rupture. ะเ
  
  The bill afterwards was not fun, so I recommend being in a non USA country.
This is exactly why I run around with an egg in my pocket and say weird things, you are not seen as normal with an egg in your pocket and say weird things... palimpsest
- how do you not break it? fleepygeebers
can you like just go to one of those hospitals for a holiday?

- Suicide attempts are a good way to end up locked up a few days in the psych ward.
  
  Take this advice with a grain of salt, the doc might not let you out after just a few days, and that weekend might be a good bit of a year if they feel the need to tune in psychofarmaka before release
- Yes but it's far cheaper to take a regular vacation.
- I wonder how many kidnappers have purchased from that seller
Klinger
- thats our word... but u can say klinga
Ngl those padded rooms seem like they'd be fun. Like a bouncy castle
Boy, that was funny.
- Thanks, bud. :ر
- Thank you. :ر
  I had to look up Jim Woodring and boy o boy, that’s some fine hatching he does. Impressive.
  Wait… Are you comparing my artwork with his?!? 8٥

- If you saw my previous reply then it wouldn't make sense because I accidentally replied to your comment instead of the one I was meant to reply too
I was secretly hoping that the SAG-AFTRA strike would run a little bit longer...
the word is "normalcy"
- The word normalcy is normalcy, yes.
  But normality is quite normal.

  I did not recognize that form and assumed it was not a word. I stand corrected.
  
  What a very cumulative word
- I mean, sure, normalcy also works here, but normality also fits here just fine.
Is the company Microsoft?
- Hmmm. Doesn’t look like a Washington license plate on the van, so… no? ;ر
- There is an 's' in Microsoft, friend. It's the one shaped like a ssssnake.
