I like video games, but they are very violent. I want to create a video game in which you have to help all the characters who have died in the other games. "Hey man, what are you playing?" "Super Busy Hospital, could you leave me alone? I'm performing surgery. This guy got shot in the head, like, 27 times."

Martin’s joke pivots on the contrast between the casual fun of gaming and the extreme, often consequence-free violence common in many popular titles. By proposing a game set in a “super busy hospital” that treats the victims of other games, he satirizes how entertainment abstracts suffering into points, spectacle, or quick respawns. The imagined dialogue (“could you leave me alone? I’m performing surgery”) heightens the absurdity: the player is still “playing,” but the task is grim, meticulous, and morally corrective. The punch line (“shot in the head… 27 times”) exaggerates video-game damage to expose its cartoonish logic and to question what it means to enjoy simulated violence without confronting aftermath.
