WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)Dr. Anthony Fauci said on Friday that he would have thought twice about pursuing a career in medicine had he known that it would lead to his talking someday to Representative Jim Jordan.

Speaking to reporters after his congressional testimony, Fauci said that, during his appearance in the hearing room, he had been revisiting the series of life choices that had resulted in his being forced to hear Jordan speak.

I could have done so many other things with my life, the esteemed virologist said. I could have been a firefighter. I was actually a pretty good dancer back in the day. I could have given that a shot.

Reflecting on those roads not taken, Fauci added, Had I chosen any of those fields, you can bet your bottom dollar I wouldnt have spent today having to listen to Jim Jordan. Those are minutes Ill never get back.

Fauci clarified that he was very grateful for his career as an an epidemiologist but added, Lets not kid ourselves. If I were a professional dancer, theres about a zero-per-cent chance I would ever be in the same room as Jim Jordan. Oh, wellit is what it is.
