[[A doctor is talking to a patient, who is holding a large glass mug.]]
Doctor: So you definitely have a strawberry allergy.
Patient: Oh NO! I LOVE strawberries!
Patient: I have strawberries every MORNING! I named my dog SHORTCAKE! This is a strawberry smoothie RIGHT NOW!
Doctor: Well, that's where your hives are coming from.
Patient: But... I've already made a month's worth of smoothies...!
Doctor: I'm sympathetic but I'm not really in charge of your body's histamine
[[The patient opens his mouth and slowly brings the straw to his lips, staring at the doctor in shock.]]
[[The patient drinks.]]
Patient: SSSHHHPPPP
Doctor: You understand that you are literally poisoning yourself right now
Patient: Not ENTIRELY!
Patient: It's also got, like, vitamins!
