Magic Pills

A woman was in labour and she was not dealing with the pain very well. The doctor informed them of a new experimental drug that would allow the father to relieve 25% of the woman's pain by experiencing it himself. The husband feels really bad for his wife so he decides they will try it.

The woman takes the pill and begins to feel some relief, she inquires as to her husbands well-being to which he replies that he is fine, in fact he is sure he could take even more if his darling wife is still uncomfortable. So the doctor gives her another pill. The husband is supposed to be sharing 50% of the incredible pain of childbirth by this time but...

Same effect, she feels less pain and he seems to be ok. The doctor suspects that he is just acting 'macho' and is hesitant when the husband suggests another pill, by this time even only 50% of the wonderful experience is too much for the woman and she's pleading with the doctor to give her another one "FบวK IT, GIVE ME TWO!!" she screams, husband nods and doctor acquiesces.

The woman has now transferred 100% of the pain to the father of her baby, but the husband calmly answers his mobile, a few minutes later he goes white as a ghost and faints.

Upon waking, an hour later, in an armchair beside his wife's bed, a beautiful baby boy has been born. His wife says "Not so tough after all, are you?"

To which he replies that the phone call was from his sister-in-law "My brother just died in terrible pain and you're divorced!"
