(We haven't had a Friday Humor thread for a while. So maybe, with all the dark discussion lately about
ominous viruses and stuff, it might lighten the mood a little to have one now. Below account is of a recent experience of mine that might fit the bill, and maybe raise a smile).
Was watching a campy old 1950s sci-fi movie on cable TV the other night at about
2 AM. Something about
radioactive mutant creatures invading the world (a common theme in such films of that era). This wasn't it, but the following definitely comes close to the film I was watching:

Then I began to have this sort of weird, half-asleep daydream, inspired obviously by what I had just been watching.
SCENE:
(A radiology facility. A nurse runs frantically into the RO's office).
"Doctor, doctor, it's RT patient number 81! We accidentally irradiated his prostate with twice the normal dose, and, and, now his, his, abdomen is GLOWING!"
"What? What? That's impossible!"
Doctor and nurse race frantically into the RT chamber, where all the other RT techs are screaming in terror, as patient 81 is rising up from under the machine, a blinding yellow glow coming from his abdomen, and, with an ominous sneer on his face, he cries out in maniacal laughter "Now I will conquer the world, Bwahahaha!"
He then strides mightily out of the chamber and down the hallways, people screaming and running for their lives, and as he exists the building, he begins to glow even brighter and brighter.
The army is summoned, and he is met outside by army tanks firing relentlessly at him, but his over-radiated, glowing prostate has mutated him into an invincible, radioactive-shield-protected, MONSTER, and the shells bounce harmlessly off of him!
BWAHAHAHA he again cries out, as he effortlessly casts the tanks aside, mere toys to him now, and he then screams menacingly "Soon more RT guys will begin to glow, and will follow me, and we will become an ARMY of mutant radioactive prostates, and, marching forth, we will crush everything in our paths. And nothing will stop us from conquering the WORLD! NOTHING!" BWAHAHAHA!
And then my dream-movie ends, with a deranged man, obviously a fellow with a radioactive prostate, screaming out to guys about
to get RT:
