<div class="IPBDescription">God-damn that hurt!</div> It's just gone 8am here, walked into
the kitchen literally minutes ago to
put the kettle on. I decided that I would
go start up the PC while the kettle boiled.
But as I was walking across the kitchen floor
I stood on a damn 3 inch needle. (The sewing kind)
So I had 2/3 cm of needle stuck in my right foot.
After 30 seconds of loud swearing and hopping round
the room, I managed to sit myself and rip the b******
out. There was no-one else in the house, and I could barely
get a grip in the slippery metal so it was extremely painful
Luckily it doesn't hurt to walk on.

I'm gonna go job-hunting in about 20 min and call into
the Doctor's on the way back. Check if I need a tetnus shot
or something.

Anyone else have anyone similar and painful moment?

if you/others leave 2 inch needles on the kitchen floor, then im just surprised you still have any fingers to type with.

when will you people learn not to put landmines under your pillow?

Hmm some odder then expected replies. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'>
I'm back from my job hunt..... anyone know what
the ROSS system is? Nice job info here but it
says "knowledge of the ROSS system prefered".
Gonna ask around and apply for it tommorow.

Oh btw, no idea why the hell there was a damn sewing needle
on the kitchen floor. I'm gonna have to have stern words with my
dad when he gets. Think he needs a slap and put back in line.

DOOManiac · April 2003

Back in 8th grade (8 years ago) I had a really bad pain in my stomach...

It was there every day, and kept gettnig worse and worse. I told my mom, but she thought I was just whining about it and didn't want to spend the $ to take me to the doctor. It's not like we didn't have insurance. We did. Just that big deductible is worth so much more than your child's wellbeing, you know?

So after two or three weeks the pain is so bad I can no longer physically tolerate the pain of simply standing up. Mom says "well FINE, I'll just have your father take you to the doctor." Doctor takes one look at me and says I gotta have emergency surgery.

Had to have my appendix taken out, as it was ready to pop...

Go mom...

(though it turns out that after they went in with surgery it wasn't my appendix at all, but rather the muscle on top of my appendix somehow got twisted IN A KNOT. ouch. That hurts just thinking about it.)

Necrotic · April 2003

Nearly the same thing happened to me when i was a wee sprat of a lad dys, but i was jumping on my bed, jumped off onto the floor and planted my foot square on some weird thing I was constructing that had dozens of pins in it...so I ended up with one going right into the soft part of my foot until it hit the bone.

I cried.

eediot · April 2003

hm, oh okay i got one

i was a wee lad, and i was watching my two brothers have a pillow fight on the bed. i was sucking on one of those little sponge shooters [you put the sort of spongey 'bullet' on the end of the 'gun', and then press the trigger. air pushes the little sponge bullet away].

something happened like they accidentally hit the back of my head or something, anyway, i ended up having the shooter jam into roof of mouth near the throat

no really serious damage, just a scar that i will probably have my whole life.. problem is, i cant show it off as a war wound, as its so far back. "yes, i was eating a lamb back in 'nam when it exploded! damn near took my tongue off!"

Burr · April 2003

I was sitting here playing NS, when all of a sudden I got a sharp pain in my stomach. I thought it was just gas, so i igorned it for about 15 mins, but it just got worse, so I walked to some campus clinic, and by the time I got there the clinic was closed and the pain was gone, so I went to the hospital anyway, just to be safe, After the long wait at the emergency room (about 2 hours), I went in there and they told me that there was nothing wrong, so I went back to my dorm.

After I got back, the pain started again (thats the kind of luck I always have), this time only worse. I had to have the ambulance come and get me becasue I was in too much pain to wait for the bus. I went back, had to wait in the emergency room again for like another hour and a half, all the time with this pain that had me literally crying in a fetal position on the floor of the ER waiting room. By the time I saw a doctor, I was begging him for a painkiller (mmmm....morphine, is there anything better than military strength morphine?), then I was out, I barely remember them giving me a cat scan. After a night in te hospital, I found out what it was....

KIDNEY STONES!!

and thats bad when you only have one kidney.

Venmoch · April 2003

I got stabbed in the eye

Does that count??

Tenebrae · April 2003

Lemme see....

Crushed one of my fingers in a theatre seat
Cut my head open on a broken flower-pot

That painful enough?

Sycophant · April 2003

Drove a nail straight through my hand once. Not intentionally, of course!

I was a wee lad of about 10 years, and me and my other wee lad friends were messing around in a house which was still being built. It was obviously an off-day for the workers, so we were the only ones there. I was up in the attic for some reason, stumbled while walking near the roof, put my hand out to catch myself, and <b>BAM</b> - got a nail stuck through it.

If anyone in the UK heard a blood-curdling scream from across the Atlantic during the summer of '89, yeah, that was me. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'>

CrouchingHamster · April 2003

Hmmm. Fell face first over the handle bars of a bike when I was a kid, knocked my teeth almost clean through my bottom lip. Messy.

Also climbing on a fence as a kid, slipped and landed legs apart on a lower metal fence. There was much squealing.

I've done lots of stupid things, other than those ones usually seemed to land lucky I s'pose.

Nowhere near as good as my brother though who managed to slice his own head open with a rusty machete.. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif'>

AllUrHiveRblong2us · April 2003

When I was a wee lad of 3 days ago I got jumped on and hit my nose on the shoulder of the person in front of me(at the time it hurt so much I had suspected I had brken it), then after the bleeding had subsided I went back into the mosh pit, and long story short I managed to somehow be holding up some kid by both legs and get my face jammed into his ****. That was both excrutiating, stupid, and humiliating. It still hurts to blow my nose.

SnO0Py · April 2003

Hmm about the most dangerous things I did...

1. Two times this happend accually, I woke up at night and could hardly breath, I hurried and woke up my parents (took my a while the second time it happend), they hurried and took me too the hospital, all they had to do though was turn a humidifier on and have me put a tube up to my mouth (not down my throat) and breath through it.

2. My dog got out of the fencing (like he did all the time) and when he came back, he sat down and I started yelling at him, well he ripped my throat open heh, my mom heard my crying, looked out the window, and was like "****..." so she ran out and took my to the hospital right away. Luckily I just had to wear guas for a while...

3. Drove my bike into a conrete wall, ripped open my cheek about an inch, had to get 5 stiches. Funny thing was I was wearing a helmet...

Oh, here's another juicy tale of pain and torture. When I was 8-ish my brother put a big ol' rock into a snowball, which oddly enough, was barely covered by snow. He heaved it at the back of my head, thinking it'd be funny and it hit me pretty hard. Ended up pretty messy(as head wounds usually are), had to get a few stitches. Can't remember exactly how many.

Sinister · April 2003

ouch! I find this thread very unpleasant.

Oh, well...

My appendix burst open and had to be removed. I also almost dried out whilst in the hospital, and the gooey contents of my appendix had spread all over my guts so I had to have another surgery. Also I had to put in some of those needles without any anaesthetic (sp?). ouch.

I bit through my lower lip twice. First by running into a steel pipe fence, and then when my brother threw a rock in my face. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'>

I've chrashed a bike and ended up with a large piece of the skin on my knee ripped off... nowadays, I can bend that leg a little the wrong way. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'>

Then one time, I rode the same bike right into the side of my old house. But I didn't hurt myself that time. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>

Oh, and I crushed my thumb in a car door once... and now it's all flat and it also can bend a bit the wrong way... <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'>

GWAR · April 2003

Rode my bike down this one hill when I was 13... Front tire dipped into a hidden hole in the ground. I went flying over the handlebars. amazingly I wasnt hurt.

I did it again when I was 15, and cracked my leg when my back tire slid out on a wet patch of grass at the bottom.

(This is a STEEP hill)

I never learn, to this day i still use that hill as a shortcut

as for fugged up things I have done:
1) broken my arm jumping over a fence (note this fence was about 1 foot off thrground, I landed on a concreate side walk <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'>)

2) running in the ohuse, tripped fell, slid into coffe table style thing, I now have 3 eyebrows (scars are fun <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'>)

3) poped my hip out <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'>
I was playing catch with one of my friends (literaly, she ways about 100 lbs <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'>) one of my friends threw her up a tad to high and I was standigwrong. I felt my self falling so I twisted so she would land ontop of me (I weight 200+ some where around 2x her weight <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'>). I felt/heard (not sure) 5 very distinct *POP*s, sorta layed there in pain for a few, finaly decided to get up...

insert loud scream here <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'>
decided to change that to 'roll over' even that hurt <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'>
so I sorta limped around for a while (basicaly it consisted of moving my right leg HURT so I could walk if I had suport, and I had to crawl up and down staris, sorta sucked <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'>)

However these are the 2 winners that I know of, neiher done by me <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'>:
1) My friend got her finger tip caugyht in a sound proof door slaming <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'>, it literaly pulverized the finger tip, nearly fully severing it. She felt very little pain, primarily b/c all of the nervers were crushed <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'> (yech, still makes my fingers tingle)

2) This one is for Venmoch <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'>

One of my friends was climbing over a chain link fence. Ripped OPEN his testicle sac, yah... He wins...

Dubers · April 2003

When I was about 9 or 10 I was mucking about with a friend beside a golf course. Next thing I know some guy comes over to us and from about 50 paces he drops down a golf ball takes out his driver and hits it at me. The thing ricochets off the top of my arm and I hit the deck screaming in agony. It felt like I had been shot or my arm had fallen off or something.

My dad was near by and saw what happened and came charging at the dude like a rhino. The guy couldn't run fast enough and my dad tackled him to the ground dragged him into the car and drove him to the police station. I had to go to hospital to get x-rays and stuff but I was ok although my whole arm was bruised from elbow to the shoulder.

Get this! The guys excuse for doing it was that there had been a group of kids stealing golf balls from the course and he thought me and my friend were the same kids. So he took it upon himself to nearly kill me for some **** plastic balls. I got a **** load of compensation money so it wouldn't go to court tho so the pain was kinda worth it.

This would most definetly apply -> <b>Your Dad > Golf Dude</b>!!!

In this case, the golf dude definetly deserved being tackled. Whatever charges ended up being applied to him, it wouldn't have been enough - how stupid does one have to be to smack a golf ball at a kid at 120km/h or more?? And entirely based on <i>an assumption</i>?? <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'>

Holy crap. I'd have a fear of all things golf if that
happened to me. My advice is to watch Happy Gilmore
and see golf from a different angle ;-)

1. My little sister slammed the door on my head (the side of my head and not right on my face)

2. My little sister accidently slammed the car door on my index finger
