About This Quote

A one-line joke framed as a conversation with a doctor, using a literal interpretation of “two places” to deliver a punchline.

Interpretation

It plays on ambiguity: the speaker means two locations on the leg, while the doctor pretends it means two physical locations visited, turning medical advice into a comedic admonition.

Variations

I told my doctor I broke my leg in two places. He told me to stop going to those places.
