Subtle

I'm working on a book about "drug math" (how to figure out dosages). And I keep getting to this section:

"Suppose the physician gives you an order for a rectal suppository. You will calculate the appropriate amount in the same manner as you would a tablet. There the similarity ends; the suppository will be administered rectally."

And I start giggling, and I have to stop and think about why I find that so damn funny.
