I'M DOGBERT, DOCTOR OF THE IMPOSSIBLE.
DOES THAT MEAN YOU CURE DISEASES THAT ARE BELIEVED TO BE IMPOSSIBLE TO CURE?
NO, THAT SOUNDS BORING.
I PRESCRIBE TREATMENTS THAT ARE IMPOSSIBLE TO FOLLOW.
WHEN YOU FAIL, AND YOU DON'T GET BETTER, YOULL THINK IT'S YOUR OWN FAULT.
HOW DOES THAT HELP ANYONE BUT YOU?
HEY, I'M NOT THE ONE WHO BROUGHT IT UP.
YOU'RE GIVING ME A HEADACHE.
TO CURE THAT, I SUGGEST ICE-COLD BATHS EVERY SIX MINUTES.
