Neurologist banter

Loosely transcribed from what I can remember. The Neurologists shall remain anonymous.

Discussing the treatment of a difficult case:
Neurologist one: I was thinking of using Carbamazepine to treat this dog...
Neurologist two: You could, but it has no effect and it went out of fashion about 20 years ago.
Neurologist one: Some of us aren't old enough to remember that.
Neurologist two: Some of us are old enough to have have read the literature.

Later....
Neurologist one: I just wanted to ask your opinion. Now I've heard it and I choose to ignore it.

The next day, discussing a dog harness that Neurologist 2 was lending to Neurologist 3 for his dog.
Neurologist 2 (to the head nurse): By the way, this is my harness. My own personal harness.
Head nurse: I don't really want to know what you use it for....
