Injuries anyone???

Post by Stinkin' Fascist »

So considering I have quite the collection myself, I thought I'd ask around and see what some of you people have.

See who has the funniest story, or most ironic :D

Well, I remember running after my friend in the school yard, I was riding a bicycle, so I fell and hit a man who was standing near school :lol:

Haha, well aren't you a nice guy.

My left eye is slightly more closed than my right...

I was swimming with my friends at one of their complex's, all but 1 of us went outside of the pool area.
When we tried getting back in we forgot the key and our friend inside wouldn't answer when we yelled so we decided to just hop the fence.

It was basically a brick wall with a metal gate/door in the middle.
So I went up to the corner where it would be easiest (I was behind the others) and yanked on the corner to test the sturdiness.

When I approved, I pulled myself up.
Instantly the brick came loose and smacked the corner of my eye, totally split.

So I'm standing there, wobbling, dizzy and lightheaded pouring blood on my feet and the floor for like a minute before they turn around and see.

So we iced it, kept a towel on it, then kept swimming, haha.

Last summer I crashed my dirtbike... first day I got it. Ran it right into a metal trailer did a superman through the air and ended up facedown in the middle of the road while my fiance and his best friend watched. Really embarrassing and painful. I seriously messed up my knee from hitting it on the trailer twice then landing on it on the pavement. It was black, blue, purple, and sickly yellow for months after. I have some nice scars on my knee and and my wrist where my watch ripped a chunk out of my arm from the crash too. After I could walk without a limp I got right back on the dirtbike though :D

That Freckles, is absolutely awesome.

I was at boot camp 2 summers ago, and while doing night ops (I was pointman, scouted ahead about 10 yds) the enemy came running at us so I told my group to scatter and hide.
I ran and flipped into some brush on the side of the road not knowing that there was a log hidden there.

So upon landing with my full body weight on my right elbow on the log, I fractured it in 7 places.
As well as got a concussion from slamming my head into the ground.
One of the "bad guys" came up to me yelling and shoving a gun in my face to get up but I couldn't really hear or register anything, my head was spinning.

So after finally getting up I kept going ignoring the pain from my limp arm, haha, and ended up getting shot on the calf an hour later; then jumped into a forked tree... sideways.

I scared the craps out of the DI coming at me, but I was wedged in a tree...

Coming back for the 2nd week I got a throat infection and became dehydrated (dehy. first day too) and couldn't eat anything.

So I had pills for my arm, still a headache, a major bruise on the leg, hips, sides, everywhere... and Kept forgetting how many pills I took and went nuts, haha.
I was a total laugh, I rolled down a hill and tore down 4 tents on the way.

Hmm well mine isn't as awesome as everyone elses but what can you do? When i was twelve my best friend and i were in this abandoned house in her neighborhood and the floors were so old that i fell through them. Luckily the nails didnt hit the bone, but it was pretty close. Now i have a scar from the top of my right ankle past my knee. I had to get stitches and couldn't bend my knee for several weeks. Sadly this is only one of my many injury stories.

No, not sadly, it's what makes us extra special haha.

'Cause really, how often can you say that you were running with your pants not all the way up and still under your heels with shoes, belt, glasses, makeup, and a baseball glove in your hand and slammed into your friend's fender when trying to slide over the hood for time?
...Not that often I'm guessing.
On top of that, I dented it and dislocated my pinky while playing softball and cut my friend and jammed her finger.

We klutzes win, haha.

Haha, I've become proud of it.

I have a bad reputation :D

I like being made fun of for it, I make fun of myself.

Haha tell me about it last December i slipped, fell and busted my knee open. I was laughing so hard that i couldnt stand up even if i wanted to, i swear my boyfriend thought i had lost my mind.

Besides, at some point you have to learn to laugh at yourself or you'll spend your life crying over nothing. And thats a long time to spend doing nothing.

Absoflippinlutely!
Sounds like a great quote, haha.

The more I laugh when I get hurt, the more it actually hurts, it's about the only way you can tell.

Last summer I was sitting on an empty square shaped ice chest that specifically said "do not sit on" while arguing w/my friend on the phone...

Ironically, as soon as she said "you need a f****ng hobby" out of nowhere the ice chest just went flying forward out from under me and I hit my back on the stucco wall; it tore my skin through my shirt.
My sister just laughed her ass off, (she happened to walk by as it happened) when we looked outside after, haha, my skin was on the wall...

My mum slapped me for laughing instead of being worried, it looked like a claw mark and I still proudly bear the scar; haha, I had to wear a bikini top basically the rest of the summer.
Needless to say, my friend and I don't argue anymore.
:D

Haha, yeah, I haven't sat on a cooler yet... at least once I realized it was a cooler.
I was sitting perfectly on it! no angles or anything!

Yeah, hahaha, It cracks me up to begin with that we laugh more when we get hurt and it's how you tell; apparently so do other people. they always think something's wrong with me.

Haha, weird is good, i'm always proud to laugh at myself.

So from what I can tell, you've screwed up your knees-legs pretty good, what else? what other parts?
