Only in New York

TBTAM: Any new sexual partners?

Patient: Yes. Well, not really a partner, more like a one night stand.

TBTAM: I hope you used a condom.

Patient: Well, I didn’t have any, and it was around 5 am…

TBTAM (interrupting): So you didn’t have intercourse?

Patient: No, we had intercourse.

TBTAM: Without a condom?

Patient: No, we used a condom.

TBTAM: I though you said you didn’t have any…

Patient: We didn’t. But we ordered some in.

TBTAM: Ordered in condoms? From where?

Patient: The Deli. I called down to the doorman in his building and asked him where he orders in for coffee. He gave me the number of a deli on the corner. So we ordered in a box of condoms….Well, also some bottled water.

  1. I’m glad I swallowed my coffee before reading the end! Only in New York is right. Thanks for the morning smile, TBTAM

  2. Wow, thats really going the distance in order to practise safe sex.

    Question is what were they using the bottled water for?

  3. It’s interesting that she felt the need to tell the story, rather than to just cut out the whole calling out thing and go with the simple, yes, we used a condom.

    She KNOWS she has a great “only in New York” genre story, and she’s got to tell it. (I have an urge to use this in my narrative section in class next week.)

  4. A little late chiming in here, I just found this post through June 12th Grand Rounds.

    My question is: what did they do while waiting for the delivery person?
