The Hunch-Backed Man
The hunch-backed man decided very reluctantly, that he should go see a doctor. A few too many people have started to comment on his back.
Doctor: "I need for you to get undressed, sir.
(Hunchback removes jacket and then stops)
Hunchback: "I really don't like getting undressed, doctor."
Doctor: "If you want me to examine your back, you'll have to get undressed.
(Hunchback removes his shirt but leaves his t-shirt on.)
Hunchback: "I don't like showing people my back. They always laugh at me."
Doctor: "Do you want me to examine your back or not?"
(Very reluctantly, the hunchback removes his t-shirt.)
Doctor: "Ah...just how long is it since you were in school?"
Hunchback: "Gosh, over 20 years, Doctor. Why?
Doctor: "Did you ever wonder all those years what happened to your backpack?"
