About Braden
"...As the explorers investigated this newfound treasure, they were drawn to the currency of this civilization. Ordinary in appearance but with the words E Pluribus Braden inscribed carefully along the border and with a picture of a strikingly handsome young nurse emblazoned boldly in the center. Truly this must have been a remarkable people..."

blah blah blah
No, I'm not giving you medical advice. Talk to your Primary Care ER Doctor for that.
No, it isn't you I'm talking about. Believe it or not, you are not the only patient who came in the ER with that same complaint in the last year, let alone the last week. Besides, I'm not breaking any HIPAA laws because I'm not divulging any identifying information, and I'm probably combining three cases together and changing the gender and age when I write about that crazy patient anyway.
Besides, even if it is you, do you really want to admit to having done that?

As the American population expands, so expand the anatomical terms needed to describe them.
It used to be that you could count on only one butt/patient. American largess dictates that such limitations are immoral and anti-consumerist (i.e., you are letting the terrorists win): it is up to each individual (in consultation with their chair and their Big Mac) how many butts they wish to acquire and wear.
Of course, no need to hurt the patient's feelings by correcting his nomenclature for the m. buttus inferiorus.
