Lots of choices. But I'm going with taking a sandy curve too fast on my bike, wiping out gloriously, and tearing open my left elbow, wrist, middle finger, side, calf, and ankle.

This was three weeks after I was hit by a slow-moving car. On the same bike.

Hmmm.. I stabbed myself with a spoon while doing dishes.. and actually managed to cut myself... With a spoon. Still havent lived that one down *eye roll*

While wrestling at nationals, I was wandering around wearing my singlet off my shoulders, around my waist. Essentially wandering around in my sweats and a sports bra with spandex underwear. Well I was standing nice and high on the bleachers, talking with my team and some friends. They call my name over the loudspeaker announcing that I'm "On deck" (next to wrestle) I flip right out because I hadn't been given my 2 match warning. I yank my sweats down, and in the process I moon everyone at nationals who happens to be looking up. Wearing a flesh colored thong.. natch. Then, in my utter panic to get my singlet back up, I overbalanced and rolled down the bleachers. Roughly 30 of them. Owwwwwww. And then to rub salt in the open wounds, i got my ass handed to me on a silver platter during my match. Damn. I was called the "ass coach" for the rest of the season. Supposedly it was short for assistant coach... I still have my doubts.

Dancing with new shoes, I decided to do a trick where I climb up the pole and spin down. Well stupid me forgot that these shoes had rubber grip on the inner heel, and up the back of the platform as well as on the sole. So I climb up a good 8 ft, and while attempting to kick my legs out to spin down, the grip caught on the pole and I fell flat on my ass. Well... ass... back.. head... it sucked ass, I couldn't even get out of bed the next day. Thank god it was only an amature night, because I looked like one HELL of a rookie.

Edited because I've been up for way too long and cant spell.

After experiences like those, I would gladly spend a morning nursing you back to health.

Granted, I would be making fun of you for being so short-bus special the whole time I was playing Florence Nightingale. But it's the thought that counts, right?

Goodness LaTigresse... my breast injuries are extensive and disturbing... Like the time I was playing floor hockey with a bunch of friends and caught one of those evil little orange plastic balls right to the breast. Coincedentally, it also came straight for my nipple at mach 3.. Many of my injuries involve projectile objects and the words mach 3. So I hope no one has to do anything except imagine :P

You know they really should make an equivlent (SP) of the cup that men use for woman for their breasts!!!

They do, actually. Find it in sporting goods stores for women who play softball, hockey, martial arts, etc.

but Sinergy has hurt himself enough for the two of us.

When I was a kid I used to ride my bike down hills and crash into things like the ivy covered chain link fence in my yard or the sump filled with rusting garbage near where I grew up.

The cool thing about the sump is you race down at breakneck speed, hit the water, the bike slows down, the rider doesnt and is pitched over the handlebars into the oozing sludge filled with sharp, nasty things.

Used to have jellyfish fights, avocado fights, dirt clod fights, bb gun fights, sling shot fights, knights in armor (well, kids with wooden swords) fights, etc. Something was always in the process of healing.

My all time favorite, though, was my buddy riding his skateboard down a hill and hitting a eucalyptus berry, going ass over teakettle and breaking his wrist. Cast for 6 weeks.

Gets the cast off and 4 days later, rides down the same hill on his skateboard, hits a eucalyptus berry, goes ass over teakettle and breaks the same wrist. One of those Kodak moments in life where I had the opportunity to ask "Dude, miss your cast?"

And I have not even gotten in to much of the idiotic nonsense I have been involved in as an adult.

I figure it is all par for the course. I refuse to take the advice of some "Dude, you are not 20 years old anymore." I am in much better shape than most of the 20 year olds I know. But part of me always wonders whether I will know if this is true if I dont continue to push the envelope.

Yes, I know I am wrong.

This thread resonates too strongly for me not to respond to it.

Senior year of high school, I went to visit my "fiance" ~rolls eyes~ for Spring Break. When having to leave him, after a ride in his car, I leaned back against his car. I would like to say it was while kissing or something, but I can't remember and I think I was just being lazy while he got into his trunk. I ended up with a lovely circular burn on the lower back of one of my calves, and a novel new acceptance of why you should avoid the tailpipe of a recently driven car.

As a child of three, my family of five (mom, dad, brother, sister, and I) were in a hotel room, and after getting done swimming I took a bath. I asked Dad for the towel, and he said ok and left the bathroom. Unbeknownst to me, he then had to stop a fight amongst the siblings, hence his delay. All I knew was that I could very clearly see the towels above the toilet on the wire rack. (I later found out they were all washcloths.) So I climbed, dripping, up the toilet seat to slip much more rapidly DOWN, cracking my eye open on the porcelain tank/bowl. I don't know how many stitches it was, but I still proudly carry the scar so you can count if you ever meet me...

And most impressive (I think) was during an argument with Sir. I was determined to leave his house in a huff and walk home. He was more determined not to let me. The resulting tussling match was actually somewhat fun (not counting my violently independent rage) but was cut short when I reared my head back to get away from him and cracked my eye on the corner of the wall opening into the bedrooms/restroom. I managed to hit my eye in actually 3 separate places, one on the upper eyebrow, one on the lower eye area, and one on the cheek. I sported a black eye for a week or more and had a hell of a time convincing people I'd given it to myself.

Hello A/all,

I just finished starting a vegetarian pasta sauce to use making pizza later, and cutting up all the veggies reminded me of an injury.

I cut about 1/4 of an inch of flesh off the end of my thumb one time trying to cut a bell pepper.

Put rubber bands on the thumb as a tourniquet, super glued the end back on, and went back to cooking.

Good as new!

Oh wait.. I just remembered the stupidest thing that resulted in actual injury...

I was about 12, and I was making a costume for halloween (yeah yeah). This entailed scissors, which in this case were on a penknife.

Leave scissors on floor, cover with plastic bag.

Kick bag with unprecedented force... Sever vein in ball of foot. Man that was gross (you could totally see the two halves of vein!). Good excuse to not do sports at school for a bit though

I just remembered another really dumb way I hurt Myself about eleven years ago, when I first got online. I was so fascinated with the new world I discovered (chatrooms, instant messages, e-mail, websites, etc.) that I would stay on the computer until 2 or 3 AM, then get up and be at work by 9 AM the next day.

One night, I was sitting on one of My legs, didn't realize it had gone to sleep, and unthinkingly hopped out of My chair. I lost My balance because My leg had gone to sleep and ended up spraining an ankle. The next day when I explained what had happened, the people at work told Me to come up with a more exciting story, so I said I injured Myself swinging upside down from the chandelier.

I wonder who in the CM membership, is an insurance underwriter and is recording all of this?

I also wonder how it is, that people who practice some really pretty dangerous activities in bdsm, manage to come out unscathed from all that, and yet cut themselves with spoons for example!?

Can we expect for 07, insurance application forms which list bdsm as a dangerous sport or hobby, alongside hang gliding and bungee jumping? Not because bdsm is dangerous, if done correctly, but simply because those into it seem to be definite personal injury risks in everyday life!

Geez Lady E, I could almost take that as a jab at me and my dishwashing ability. :P lol.

In any case this wasn't me, but boy it was stupid. My dad was goofing around with some buddies when he was about 25. He dove off a pier without looking, and split himself open from hip to pec on an old rusty railroad tie. According to him and his buddies, they doused it in alcohol, put some horse salve on it, and duct taped it up. *sigh* Maybe this will explain my talent with spoons a bit more.
