Stupid Injuries Options

[Guest_Logicman_*]

Also another stupid thing..wasn't really an injury but it's just stupid.  My brother once dropped a peice of lettuce on my head and I said "ouch"

aye... *nods sympathetically* but that lettuce can be pretty nasty, you know.

[monkey_called_na...]

ok i have the all time stupidest injury in the world!!! when i was 12 years old i shoot myself in my wrist. heres the story

ok so my dad is the leader of one of the boy scouts and hes a big hunter and decides hes going to take the boys to get there gun safty badges wich contains shooting all sorts of guns in this big open feild thats at my grandmothers, and i had to come with because my mom was at work and i wasnt allowed to be home alone. well im there and i have a 22 with a scoop so im shooting that for a while and i decide i wanted to try out a hand gun so my dad hands me the 45 and im aiming and im concentraiting as hard as i can because i kinnda wanna show off in front of all the boys, and im holding this hand gun with both hands trying to get really good shoot in, so just as im about to fire my dad says somthing to me i jump jerking on of my hands forward as i pull the trigger sending the bullet right into my wrist and my dad rushes me to the hospital and they remove it. so now i have this scar on my wrist and it only bends so far and there a little indent that you can feel.

the funniest thing thow was when my mom found out she nailed my dad right in the eye while im sitting on the hospital bed crying...

Oh that reminds me of a joke I stole from Good Morning Vietnam:

"What's the difference between the Boyscouts and the US Army?"


"The Boyscouts don't have heavy artillery."


So shoot me, I tried.

ok.... fun... the stupidest injury I ever got would have to be from way back when I was 8... I tryed to throw my cat in my little kiddie pool and got a scratch on my wrist and chest... I have scars...

oh and then there's the time I think I was 11 or 12 and I jumped off the side of my neighbors pool and got bit by his dog... the dog thought he was saving me... I think... and then my neighbor took me home and I refused to go to the hospital and get stitches so I have a nice set of scars from that...

and one more stupid injury I've gotten... I was running down the walk way of my back yard at my old house and I ran into a brick and broke my little toe on my right foot...

there's some of my stupid injurys for you're amusement... feel free to laugh... because it is funny...

[chester]

oh... stupid injurys? im a clutz, i have many.

i tried jumping off my friend cailas roof onto her giant trampeline. i was wearing shoes, so when i landed i slipped. i didnt get hurt real bad, but i landed flat on my back couldnt breathe right for a while. (no major injury)

hmm... i once tried roller blading down a hill by my house. i didnt roll more than i plumited. i never really get hurt too bad, so i just decided to take the skates of and never try again. (no major injury)

ok, heres a story i tell whenever my friends ask if my brother michael is a nice brother or a mean one. i was sitting at the same computer i am now, three weeks ago, when my brother michael walked by. he came in from doing some yardwork. he was holding a shovel. he looked at me. he shook his head at me, and for no reason at all HE HIT ME WITH THE SHOVEL. (injury: bruising on my back and left arm)

when i was a little kid my cat attacked my face. cant remember much else, except trying to pick the cat up when it attacked my face. i was only like 7 and i had to get stiches all across my forehead and cheek. i still have scars. (injurys: i already said, so if you cant remember go back and read my story)

uh... what other stupid ones??? over the summer my crazy cheerleader friends were trying to teach me how to do a roundoff. i was still not good at the basics so i was gonna do a handstand to warm up. well, i landed on my head. (injurys: none, actually. i was suprised... and happy )

Me and my mates were out having one of our standard under age drinking expeditions... i mean ummm (for the record) we were walking home from choir practise... yeah... anyway, we were walking under a large high up bridge, with a path and a stream running under it. the stream had dried up mostly, so it was just a trickle in amidst a combination of mud, broken beer bottles, general rubbish and the like.

Anyway, i was standing on the edge of the path, wobbling slightly, when my friend runs along the path and cleverly knocks me down the slope into this ditch full of the above. It wasnt a far fall, but i got some nasty pieces of brown glass stuck in my arm and i passed out. i woke up after a few stitches on my arm, and all sorts of lovely antiseptic treatments. i think i got a tetanus jab as well, i dunno. but i have the scars to prove it

anyway, the lesson kids is....... dont let your drunk mate push you in a ditch.

i got a right roasting for drinking as well.

Oh yeah, my other dumb injury was breaking my ankle while out on lash on a business trip in Hawaii. That ruined that trip for me. Well, that, and having to evacuate a burning airplane on the runway the next day. With a busted ankle.

[Mr Fuzzy]

Could be worse... You could have had all that without getting properly slammed...

[Jonman]

Could be worse... You could have had all that without getting properly slammed...

Well, yeah, being twatted when I did it was a good thing, as otherwise I would have been in rather a lot of pain.

However, having a hangover from hell, and hopping across the runway at top speed, away from the fiery airplane of death, thinking I was about to die, felt like heavy handed karmic compensation for the pleasant afternoon of tropical snorkelling I'd had the day before.

[Mr Fuzzy]

That's where you went wrong. Remember rule 1 - Never do anything active when you could be in the pub instead. At least down the boozer the risks are generally limited to aggro skins.

*Bump*

Just found this thread so I thought I would share some of my amusing injuries with you

- I was in the Cubs (little scouts) and I was at camp. There was a rope swing across a river but none of us are big enough to get all the way across. Never the less we start swinging on it. I swing, jump, land in the river and my knee whacaks on something. I get up thinking I just banged it, when I look down I see a huge chunk out of my knee and the bone showing through. It's not bleeding that badly though. I spent 3 hours in A&E dressed only in a t-shirt and swimming trunks then got some stiches in. Still have the scar on my left knee.

- I was about 11 and at my Grandparents house. They have a load of little kids toys and stuff out back so I was messing about on a tiny tricycle that was way too small for me. I crashed it and fell off with the trike underneath me. I try to get up and it hurts, I look down and see one of the handle-bars sticking into my right knee. Still got the scar from that as well

- On holiday in France, about 10 years old. I wanted to go on the beach but we were just walking along the front behind the beach. There was a wall between us and the beach. As the wall was only about 2 feet high, I thought I would jump over it, on the other side it was more like 12 feet high. luckily as I landed on sand I only twisted my ankle.

Thats all I can think of for now. The moral of my stories is: Look before you leap!

GOD forbid that i forget to mention this...

One day i was riding my bike just after having it fixed in the shop, it was there to have the chain and gears worked on(this is important later), anyway, im riding my bike(without a helmet no less) and all of a sudden the next thing i know im in a hospital...

What happened was, apparantly, my bike flipped end over end, tossing me into the air, making me land on my head/neck, sliding for about 30-40 feet, causing me to tear open the back of my head and neck...

This all happened because, apparantly, the chain they put on was too large for the bike and got kinked and caught on one of the gears, making the bike flip end over end considering that i was pedaling quite hard...

so now i have a metal plate in the back of my head, a nasty scar, and a new bike... it's nice! (the bike is)

[Usurper MrTeapot]

My two favourite injuries.

1) I was quite young and playing He-Man in the bathroom, swinging from the shower curtain and stuff when it snapped and I fell. I hit my face on the rim of the toilet seat and have a small scar.

2) After two major rugger games in one day we all went out to celebrate our victories. It was the semi final and final of a London schools championship. So I'd played 160 minutes of intense Rugby without injury, had a bit to drink and fell down the steps out of the pub and twisted my ankle badly.

[snooodlysnoosnoo...]

About 6 weeks ago I was cooking some potatoes and I had turned the wrong ring on, I started to get annoyed that the water wasn't boiling and leant on the hot plate that I had turned on instead of the one I meant to. I didn't just put my hand on it, I leant on it... much body weight, blisters on every finger, across the top of the palm of my hand and one at the base of my thumb resulted. It's still peeling.
I spent 3 hours in A&E, was given 6 different kinds of painkiller and was still in pain, had to shower with a plastic bag on my hand for 3 weeks until the blistered healed enough, had my hand completely bandaged up for 3 days, mostly bandaged up for a week and well covered for another 2 weeks after that.
Worst of all it was my right hand and I had to have a scribe write my exams for me.

I have pictures from three weeks after I did it if anybody wants to see here

I didn't just put my hand on it, I leant on it... much body weight, blisters on every finger, across the top of the palm of my hand and one at the base of my thumb resulted. It's still peeling.

Ouch, snoo. Poor you. My sister dropped an iron on her foot, to similar effect.

My personal favourites:

1) You know guitarists swing the guitar from upside-down on their back, over their shoulder, to their front? Don't stand behind someone who does that. Mild concussions and black eyes result.

2) In gymnastics, standing on a beam, I was supposed to put my hand on the shoulders of the person in front of me on the floor, and flip over them to the floor. Unfortunately, my elbow gave way, we bashed heads pretty badly, he fell backwards and went down with the beam, I went forwards and landed on my elbow.

Injury count : One concussion, one fractured elbow, one dislocated shoulder, two sprained wrists and a lot of spectacular bruises.

I was running around inside a sleeping bag and ripped 3/4 of an inch of toenail, clean off.

This morning I woke up and smashed my head on my light (that hangs over my bed) I fell back and was lying there for quite a while...

[Fallen Element]

I was drunk (still am) about an hour ago - I fell down the stairs and I suspect a broken toe! I'm too much of a woosie to phone my dad and ask him to rescue me! It is amusing at the moment but I suspect it may not be so amusing tomorrow! At least I don't have porce forcing me to walk two miles with a broken toe this time! [shakes fist at porce!] Yup, that's right, the last time I (porce) broke my toes I was made to walk two miles home on aforementioned broken toes! Sigh. I think I hear bed calling my name - and who am I to ignore bed?!



Fal - or "He of the sore toes!" xXx

P.s. Don't trust porce with your toes, alcohol or first-born children! Don't I say!

Just because it's spam it doesn't mean it's wrong! My toes have stopped bleeding so all is good in my world - specially since I still have some Southern Comfort. It comforts on so many levels!

Thankee for the hugs!

I have quite a few scars I can't explain, including one under my lip that looks like a Nike swoosh. I've chosen to find it dashing, though I suspect it's the result of very nasty corporate advertising.

My favorite idiotic injury was hopping over a pointy object while on a 6 o'clock ferry to an island where the hospitals close at 3, tripping, and gashing open my shin. We wound up calling the local doctor away from his roast beef so he could stitch up my leg! Hot-glueing my finger to a Styrafoam packing pellet was memorable as well, especially as I didn't notice until the glue had dried. Peeling it off was quite painful, and I still have a bit of fingerprint missing. Remind me never to commit a felony and run, as I'll be very easy to identify.

well..i once got injured from playing a drama practice game with a friend. i was at her house outside in the middle of the road. a car came, and i jumped back onto the grass (theres kind of a mini hill ditch-ish thing seperating the road and her yard) and stood there until the car passed. then i jumped down without my shoes on and my foot got sliced on an extremely dull rock. ^^

another one: I was at the skating place with a friend. she's pidgeon toed so she can't skate very well. she was about to fall, i grabbed her hand to catch her since im a awesome roller blader. she then sat down while i was halfway standing and she ended up pulling me down on my knees and my knee swelled up horribly..i couldnt walk for a day after that..and i had a castish thing on it.

Another one: i was at my friends house wrestling with her older brother who is a year older than me exactly. he's stronger and taller than me so he got on me and wrapped his legs round me so i couldnt move. i started struggling and accidentally hit the vacuum. it fell and landed on my forehead. ouch.


i'm good at hurting others too. once i was *once again* wrestling with my bestfriends older brother AND her AND her little tiny delicate sister and i accidentally knee'ed her sis in the stomach and bruised her ribs reallllllly badly. i felt so bad. cuz she started crying. but oh well..she's crazy bout me so what does it matter now lol

another injury i caused someone was onetime i was at my friends house *once again* and i sat on her older brother, he bit me on the ass (oww) cuz i sat on his face. so then i grabbed his ear with my mouth and accidentally bit down a bit too hard..ouchies..i gave him a nasty bruise-ish ear injury..

[sjbbandgeek]

I stabbed myself with a pencil in the 4th grade. Lead mark is still there.

Am I just a really big perv, or does this sound pseudo-erotic to anyone else?
