Belief in the Occult.

“Some weird things have happened in my life that I can’t explain,” I said. My friend, a radiologist, said nothing, though I could feel her rolling her eyes through the telephone.

“I’m not saying that I believe in the occult; I’m just saying that some strange things have happened,” I concluded.

“Well,” she huffed, “the only occult I believe in are occult pancreatic cancer, occult head tumors, and occult fecal blood.”
