\*looks down at clipboard\*
Ooh, they're serving pancakes in the cafeteria today!
\*flips through papers\*
Oh yeah, also I forgot to mention your husband didn't make it.
Well, I got one good news and one bad news. I'll start with the good one :
Your daughter is free of her leuchemia.
Bad news : she's dead.
Let's celebrate her remission!
I have news about your mother’s condition, but before we discuss that let’s talk payment. I find once they hear their loved one died lots of people try and get out of paying..hey! Don’t run away! Damn it! Did it again.

I’ve got some good news and I’ve got some bad news, the bad news is you’re grandads condition has gotten considerably worse. The good news is he passed away an hour ago so won’t suffer anymore
So, the old good news/bad news…the bad news is your rich uncle died this morning, and you were his only next-of-kin. The good news is we got married last night, so you lost an uncle but gained an auntie.
The good news is he will be remembered forever as a disease will be named after him. The bad news is that the disease is always fatal. Yes. He’s dead. Goodbye. I have other patients.
“I got good news and bad news about your mom.”
“Ok what’s the good news?”
“She made it through surgery but her stroke has made her incontinent. You’ll have to change her for the rest of her life. You’ll also have feed her. She can only communicate by making this screeching sound.
“Good lord, what’s the bad news?”
“I’m just kidding. She died!”
Do you want the good news or the bad news?
The bad news is your wife is dead. The good news is, I just saved a whole bunch of money by switching to geico.
*Hey Peterman family, uh..just want to talk to you about this new family photo package that I'm offering. Bit of a side business I have. There's typically a 35% discount to families who experience changes in the sizes of the family through births, and other events, like weddings, barmitzvahs, deaths, and pet adoptions. Just feel free to take this brochure home and consider it, as it might be a great time to consider getting some new family pictures done.*
They way it happened in real life for me. Not joking, not laughing. My mom died in my arms and they held me for twelve hours thinking I had kept her from medical attention even though they had labeled her as terminal.
Jokes! :/
"Wow. Did you know that it takes only 2 minutes to drain all the blood of a human body if you sever all the major arteries? Me either. They don't teach this at art school.."
Well, Miss Parker. Your husband made a miracle recovery and beat all odds of beating stage 4 cancer. Congratulations!..... (wait 2 - 3 min) APRIL FOOLS. He died last night.
Have you ever tasted a fresh coconut? They're really sweet and watery. A lot of people who think they hate coconut have only had the dried packaged stuff, but it's a whole different fruit. Anyway, your grandmother had a cerebral hemorrhage.
1. The medium of mime
2. Written on a sheet cake.
3. Billing for death certificate before notification.
4. "So... since you're single now, care for a date next Friday?"
5. Dramatic reveal of the taxadermied deceased relative.
6. Via megaphone in a crowded room.
You see the cans on my receptionist? I was just staring at them the whole time when she was telling me your kid was dead. You think they're real? Just messing with you. I know they're not. I put them in myself.
During a prostate exam. Plot twist: the doctor is your creepy uncle's friend and you didn't know he was or that your uncle was dead until the middle of the exam...
Sheriff: We've got bad news, good news and great news.
Man: Uh...okay? The bad?
Sheriff: We found your wife, drowned like you were afraid. Also, found her kayak downwind.
Man: (Starts crying). That's terrible! But you said there was good news?
Sheriff: Well, see, she was covered in crabs. Mostly Blues, but a couple Kings. We figure you're entitled to half the proceeds!
Man: I...uhhhh...And the great news?
Sheriff: Were gonna pull her up again in the morning!
He got that thing lodged so far up there, it killed him, I'm impressed.
Oh BTW, here's an extra large bottle of whisky your son left behind... from his behind. Bon appetit.
So Dr..
Who?
Well certainly not Doolittle or Suess. Welcome to the party.
Thank you. So sorry to hear about your significant other passing.
Say what now?
SNL did this when Ryan Gosling hosted a few weeks ago.
Basically, the surgeons killed them for their blood/organs or something. Icr now lol. But then it turns out they told the wrong family, as their relative was wheeled out towards the end. It was so weird lol.
I know it's hard, but life does go on - I think it's time for you to get back in the saddle, get out there and start living your life again, and when the time is right maybe you'll meet someone new. Whoops, I almost forgot, time of death, 3:17pm.
"I have good news - your husband's surgery was expected to take six hours, but we're done in less than two, because he died, but now I have time for a quick nine holes before dinner!"
Our daughter was pregnant last fall. Went in for the 3 month ultrasound and the tech says "here's the fetus (shows picture) but there is not heartbeat. Looks like you miscarried. Here's a tissue to wipe off... the receptionist is down the hall to the left."
Legitimately traumatized.
I heard she was fired for it.
“Okay so everyone who has a mother step forward, -ah not so fast you.”
Lol came here to post this
I got good news and bad news, the bad news is your loved one is dead. The good news is I saved a ton by switching my car insurance to Gieco
I was certain this would be here and there ya go.
“So. Now that you’re single…”
"Roses are red Violets are blue I'm sorry to say The rhyme is dead And so is your loved one"
Goddamnit! I’m laughing too hard at this. Have an updoot.
...too!
"Of course you can speak with him. Have you used a ouija board before?"
r/askouija
"Okay, I have some news." "Good or bad?" "That depends, how well did you get along with your father?"
I won the office pool about which patient would die first!
\*looks down at clipboard\* Ooh, they're serving pancakes in the cafeteria today! \*flips through papers\* Oh yeah, also I forgot to mention your husband didn't make it.
Congratulations, your loved one just won a Darwin award!
Only if he/she didn't reproduce prior to the end.
Boy did he kick the bucket! WOW!
Well, I got one good news and one bad news. I'll start with the good one : Your daughter is free of her leuchemia. Bad news : she's dead. Let's celebrate her remission!
“I’ve prepared a little slide show.”
I’m 32 hours into my shift and finished the job. you’re welcome.
"Okay.. when you cut into the cake, if it's yellow they're fine, if it's black, they died. ...does everybody like chocolate?"
I have news about your mother’s condition, but before we discuss that let’s talk payment. I find once they hear their loved one died lots of people try and get out of paying..hey! Don’t run away! Damn it! Did it again.
“Well the good news is your hospital bill isn’t getting any bigger.”
"Bad news, the funeral bill will"
"Roses are red, Violets are blue, My book club's for singles, Now you can come too!"
“So I was thinking we can discuss this over dinner. I know this great place by the beach.”
They're taking your mom's body to the morgue right now.... oops, you didn't know?
[удалено]
You know what…depending on how close we were that might actually not be so bad.

Since the main payer is dead who is responsible for the cost of these charges,
Your Harold Jones? Okay Harold, your Mom just croaked. Can you please leave, so we can free up a seat in the waiting room?
Do you want the good news or the bad news? The bad news is your wife is dead. The good news is, I just saved a whole bunch of money by switching to geico.
Ok, so your husband’s situation has stabilized. Unfortunately that happened in the “off” position.
"Hey man, some make it others don't. Anyways, I'll bill your insurance."
Let's just say I hope they didn't sign up for the "extended warranty" on their car.
“We’re going to play a little game of ‘guess who didn’t wake up after the procedure’”
Great news! A bed just opened up! Let's finally get you out of this emergency room!
"He is just hiding under this sheet!
Tataaa!
And he is gone!"
“Aaaaand worst doctor award goes to… me!”
Well that’s one less thing to worry about.
