"FEVER 102,WHEEZING, IRRITABLE" uses them.

It might probably be "unabe to eat diarrhea" on purpouse

Yeah, someone's just having a bit of fun.

Unless there are multiple people registering patients, and one of them doesn't use punctuation.

Double entry for fever also

It seems very likely that this drop-down menu was not populated by one person, or perhaps was even populated by multiple databases written by very different people with highly disparate levels of grammar knowledge - maybe even different first languages.

Or someone thought it was funny, like you said. I'm not here to judge.

Are you or a loved one unable to eat your diarrhea? Try talking to your doctor about metamucil.

The only cure for "unable to eat diarrhea" is to put the patient into an induced comma.

Explains the irritability.

Unnecessary, commas are annoying.

[–] Coreidan 15 points 1 month ago

Comma for what? I also am unable to eat diarrhea

[–] slazer2au 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Ah the old helping your uncle jack off a horse or helping your uncle, jack, off a horse.

[–] Alexstarfire 3 points 1 month ago

Why not both?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago

The database is running on an IBM made in 1954. Commas literally weren't invented yet.

I forgot I had a headache

[–] FooBarrington 6 points 1 month ago

Wait, do you guys not add that to your character sheets?
