Nurse here: we ask ‘orientation’ questions as part of our assessment
I had a younger patient going through the straights with hallucinations (newly diagnosed schizophrenia)… and I had been asking the same questions (as we do) a lot
So I asked them once again, “Do you know why you’re in the hospital?”. Their response: “Deez nuts!”
I always appreciate a good “Deez nuts” joke, but that one has been my favorite so far. The volition on their face and the shitty smirk; they’re completely tied down with a guard because they would occasionally be violent… but hot damn, that was a zinger.
I counted their response as oriented—they know what they did lol

That actually isn’t even much of a stretch for Texas names. I live near the Devil’s Backbone.

I’ll have to check it out!
I’m actually involved in the filming of a local horror movie that’s going to be truly awful.
It’s about mermaid monsters. I help coordinate some of the water work and act as the production photographer and backup safety diver for the underwater scenes.
It’s going to be really, really bad. But it’s still fun!
