Corpsman awarded Nobel Prize in medicine for mixing Tylenol with Motrin

A beautiful mind.

Filed · 0200

STOCKHOLM, Sweden — In a groundbreaking announcement, the Nobel Committee awarded its prestigious prize in Medicine to U.S. Navy Corpsman Petty Officer 2nd Class Jack “Doc” Kevorkian for his revolutionary cocktail of Tylenol and Motrin, a blend that has reportedly cured everything from sprained ankles to existential dread among service members.

Kevorkian, stationed at Camp Pendleton, humbly accepted the award, stating, “I just mixed what we had in the storage room. I had no idea it would become such a game-changer.”

The Nobel Committee praised Kevorkian's “innovative approach and substantial impact on military medicine.” A spokesperson added, “His mix has not only alleviated physical pain but also provided a true boost to morale among troops. For years people have been making jokes about militaries across the world and their obsession with Motrin. It turns out the joke is on them.”
