Dennis the menace

 

Ok who attacks someone with a toothbrush?

 

Santos (I don’t need a nickname)

 

Convicts?

 

Samira the snoop

 

Irritated dentists?

 

Langdone with this shit

 

John Wick if he was being hunted in a toothbrush factory?

 

Dennis the menace

 

Valid

 

Really?

 

Good Lord help me

 

Javadi (Bitches I’m legal now)

 

The question is where they stuck the toothbrush

 

Mel

 

I don’t think I want to know where they stuck the toothbrush

 

Dennis the menace

 

You definitely don’t want to know where they stuck the toothbrush

 

Santos (I don’t need a nickname)

 

Now I’m imagining the very bad places that they could have stuck the toothbrush

 

Langdone with this shit

 

You’ve all written toothbrush too many times and now my head is reading it weirdly

 

That happen to anyone else?

 

Mel

 

Quite often

 

Santos (I don’t need a nickname)

 

Nope

 

Maybe you’re just messed up in the head

 

Samira the snoop

 

ANYWAY

 

How’s night shift going?

 

Dennis the menace

 

Not too bad

 

Javadi (Bitches I’m legal now)

 

Are they treating you ok?

 

Samira the snoop

 

They better be

 

Dennis the menace

 

You know that this isn’t my first night shift right?

 

Langdone with this shit

 

Yeah but there’s covering night shift and then there’s being night shift

 

The night walkers

 

Dennis the menace

 

Night crawlers actually

 

Santos (I don’t need a nickname)

 

Night walkers makes them sound like hookers

 

Samira the snoop

 

Yeah let’s not describe my boyfriend as a hooker

 

Langdone with this shit

 

I’d never thought about it before but abbot could make a lot as a hooker

 

Dennis the menace

 

Would you be one of his clients?

 

Langdone with this shit

 

Depends on his rate

 

You?

 

Santos (I don’t need a nickname)

 

Ok I’ve never been in a heterosexual relationship but I imagine that it’s similar to lesbianism in the sense that we don’t want to hear our partners talk about wanting to fuck other people

 

Langdone with this shit

 

My apologies

 

Dennis the menace

 

Whereas we homosexuals will talk about fucking anyone

 

Samira the snoop

 

Do I even wanna know who’s names came up in your bedroom talk?

 

Mel

 

I know l don’t

 

Goodnight

 

Dennis the menace

 

Oh no, Robby was, well let’s just say territorial

 

Santos (I don’t need a nickname)

 

Oh you cannot say that after some of the hickeys we saw you left on him

 

Samira the snoop

 

True

 

Dennis the menace

 

We didn’t talk about that, but generally a lot of gays will talk about sex a lot

 

Javadi (Bitches I’m legal now)

 

By a lot of gays do you mean Shen?

 

Dennis the menace

 

I do mean Shen

 

He talks about it a lot

 

Langdone with this shit

 

Are you jealous?

 

Samira the snoop

 

I think he might be hot for an attending

 

Dennis the menace

 

Oh god no, I am not putting myself through that again

 

Samira the snoop

 

We’ll see

Samira

 

What’s your take on Shen and Whitaker?

 

Jack

 

They’re good doctors

 

Samira

 

Not as doctors

 

As, well, Shen AND Whitaker

 

Jack

 

Wait like together?

 

Samira

 

Penny drops

 

Jack

 

Shen has went for worse guys

 

Like seriously worse guys

 

He slept with a college professor in his sixties

 

This was while he was in college

 

Nothing against college professors in general

 

Or people in their sixties 

 

Samira

 

Ew I didn’t need to know that

 

Jack

 

You think I wanted to know that?

 

It’s scarred into my brain

 

But do I think they could get together? Probably

 

Samira

 

Seriously?

 

Jack

 

Are we talking romantically or just sex?

 

Samira

 

Either

 

Jack

 

Romance is probably a no

 

John swore off dating after his last fling turned out to be married

 

To a woman

 

But sex could happen 

 

which would mean a lot of paperwork

 

Samira

 

Do gay men actually sleep with each other?

 

That’s three gay guys I know who have slept with married men

 

Jack

 

This is when we find out they’re all the same guy

 

Samira

 

I mean Jesse and Dennis did share the same guy

 

(At separate times)

 

Bear with me

Samira the snoop

 

@whitaker

 

What was the name of married man from breakup 1?

 

Dennis the menace

 

Breakup 1?

 

That’s what we’re calling it?

 

Langdone with this shit

 

I mean it would make things easier when we’re talking about it

 

I think it was Brian

 

Or Blake?

 

Santos (I don’t need a nickname)

 

You mean Bill?

 

Samira the snoop

 

Bill!

 

Thank you

Private message: Samira & Jack

Samira

 

Married man was called Bill

 

Jack

 

Great

 

What do I do with that?

 

Samira

 

Find out if Shen’s married man was called Bill too

 

Jack

 

How?

 

"Hey John, what was the name of the guy you slept with that ended up ruining his marriage?"

 

Samira

 

Well technically Jesse is the one that wrecked that marriage

 

And I’m sure that a man of your abilities will find a way

Gay Asian

 

I see you looking

 

Stop it

 

Lady muncher

 

I was having a conversation

 

Gay Asian

 

You were imagining her naked

 

Lady muncher

 

Ok fine I was reminiscing about how her tongue felt

 

Gay Asian

 

Ewwwww

 

Lady muncher

 

But you cannot judge me

 

Whenever I see you I can tell where farm boy is

 

Gay Asian

 

Is that his nickname now? Farm boy?

 

Lady muncher

 

He has a few nicknames

 

Santos calls him huckleberry

 

Em said Garcia refers to him as white chocolate

 

Which I do like

 

Gay Asian

 

Em?

 

Lady muncher

 

Shut up

Ellis (But your wife calls me daddy)

 

How do we feel about wet Whitaker as a nickname?

 

Coffee vampire

 

Pee time?

 

Ellis (But your wife calls me daddy)

 

Pee time

 

Hunky Henderson

 

If you saw the way he just rolled his eyes when he read your message you’d probably call him a diva

 

Ellis (But your wife calls me daddy)

 

Sold.

 

Ellis (But your wife calls me daddy) set Dennis Whitaker’s nickname to Diva Dennis

 

Diva Dennis

 

Really?

 

Abbot to need a walker

 

You think I had a choice in this name?

 

Coffee vampire

 

I tried to change mine once but she hit me

 

Ellis (But your wife calls me daddy)

 

Because Slutdrop Shen is not a nickname I want showing on my phone

 

Coffee vampire

 

For context my previous nickname was Shit talking Shen

 

Hunky Henderson

 

I mean Slutdrop Shen and Diva Dennis would be a great duo

 

Toomarian (or not enough Marian?)

 

Then we’d have tits, arms, ass and face

 

At least I’m assuming Whitaker would be face based on diva

 

Ellis (But your wife calls me daddy)

 

Tits

 

Arms

 

Ass

 

Bottom eyes

 

Diva Dennis

 

Not you too

 

Hunky Henderson

 

Bottom eyes?

 

Coffee vampire

 

Eyes of intense yearning from a gay

 

Basically a resting expression to scream "bend me over"

 

Hunky Henderson

 

No judgement but you homos are wild

 

Diva Dennis

 

We are indeed

 

Coffee vampire

 

It’s a talent 😉

Private message: Old papa & favourite daughter

Old papa

 

Are you seeing what I’m seeing?

 

Favourite daughter

 

I don’t have cataracts so probably

 

But to be safe, what do you see?

 

Old papa

 

I see an attending and an intern who keep looking at each other like they’re considering how solid the couch in the break room is

 

Favourite daughter

 

Jesus Abbot, why put that image in my head?

 

You could have just said they look like they might wanna fuck

 

Which I am not in favour of but what can you do?

 

Old papa

 

Potentially something twisted

 

You remember Shen’s married man?

 

Favourite daughter

 

Unfortunately yes

 

Why?

 

Old papa

 

While they’re busy with that trauma come over here.

Group chat: Night crawlers

05:38

 

Ellis (but your wife calls me daddy)

 

Ok, question for all

 

Is marriage a reason not to sleep with someone?

 

Abbot to need a walker

 

I would say so

 

Toomarian (or not enough Marian?)

 

Yes

 

Hunky Henderson

 

Not necessarily the marriage, but the possibility of the man finding me in bed with his wife is a good reason

 

Coffee vampire

 

Is it a happy marriage?

 

Ellis (But your wife calls me daddy)

 

No

 

Hunky Henderson

 

I don’t remember you asking that question before you had your last married man

 

Coffee vampire

 

I didn’t know

 

The first time

 

I was dickmatised

 

He kept saying he would leave her

 

Abbot to need a walker

 

But did he?

 

Coffee vampire

 

Actually he has now

 

I saw him at Christmas with a boyfriend

 

Ellis (But your wife calls me daddy)

 

You saw him?

 

Or you saw him?

 

Toomarian (or not enough Marian?)

 

Am I the only one who can’t read inflection over text?

 

Diva Dennis

 

As someone fluent in lesbian judgement (all due respect Doctor Ellis) that’s her asking if he ran into them in the street or if they had a threesome

 

Coffee vampire

 

Oh how I have waited for somebody else fluent in lesbian

 

And I just saw him

 

Ellis (But your wife calls me daddy)

 

What about you Whitaker, what’s your opinion?

 

Diva Dennis

 

My upbringing says no and you’d burn in hell for adultery

 

But my upbringing also says that I would burn in hell for homosexuality so I’m just gonna preach what I didn’t practice and say no don’t sleep with someone who’s married

 

Coffee vampire

 

Whitaker and a married man? I am shocked

 

Hunky Henderson

 

You look so innocent

 

Coffee vampire

 

Can his new nickname be Britney?

 

Abbot to need a walker

 

?

 

Ellis (But your wife calls me daddy)

 

Shame on you old man

 

But no

 

Now we want deets

 

Hunky Henderson

 

Do we?

 

Toomarian (or not enough Marian?)

 

I don’t know if we do

 

Ellis (But your wife calls me daddy)

 

Yes

 

Diva Dennis

 

Fine

 

No judgement here right?

 

Ellis (But your wife calls me daddy)

 

I will judge

 

But I judge everyone

 

And you can’t be worse then Shen and his married man

 

Diva Dennis

 

Well it was right after I got out of the hospital

 

Abbot to need a walker

 

Are we talking about when you got out of the hospital because you got spiked and your heart stopped and in a morphine induced haze you admitted to sleeping with the chief of the emergency department?

 

Or when you got out because you burned your hand?

 

Diva Dennis

 

 …

 

The first one

 

Abbot to need a walker

 

Jesus Christ

 

Diva Dennis

 

I had almost died!

 

And I found a guy on Grindr and I went over there

 

Which I only regret because I then found out that he was Jesse’s neighbour

 

Coffee vampire

 

Wait, you slept with Bill?

 

Diva Dennis

 

You know Bill?

 

Coffee vampire

 

I slept with Bill!

 

Repeatedly

 

Hunky Henderson

 

Oh my god 😂😂

 

Toomarian (or not enough Marian?)

 

You slept with the same guy? 

 

Ellis (But your wife calls me daddy)

 

Not only that, but Jesse slept with him too? 😂

 

Damn he only needs Robby and Langdon and he’ll have collected the full set of ER staff available

 

Hunky Henderson

 

This is hilarious and I have no stakes in it

 

So gonna have to tease you about this

 

Coffee vampire

 

Hey Whit, did he do that thing with the tongue?

 

Hunky Henderson

 

No, do not talk about sex here

 

Diva Dennis

 

Oh yeah

 

Did he ever bring out the long one for you?

 

Toomarian (or not enough Marian?)

 

Ew gross

 

Coffee vampire

 

You kidding? He bought that for me

 

You two ever make it to the bed or was he a stickler for the couch with you?

 

Toomarian (or not enough Marian?)

 

I’m done

 

Hunky Henderson

 

Tapping out

 

Abbot to need a walker

 

I know we’re weird but fucking hell
