Tootsie Roll Syndrome

Whatever it is you think you see, becomes a Tootsie Roll (or really, whatever it is you are obsessed with); a syndrome professionals seem to be particularly afflicted with.

Patient: My throat has been horribly sore for about 3 days. Do you think it might be strep?

Doctor with Tootsie Roll Syndrome (TRS): Well, I've seen a lot of this. I bet it's some form of minor cancer.

Patient: Shouldn't we run some tests?

Doctor with TRS: No, trust me, this is definitely cancer.
