I've only been rushed to a hospital twice in my life. Once when I was 5 or 6 years old, playing in standing racks of clothing at a Kmart, eventually pulling the entire thing over on myself, clonking myself in the head so hard with the laden rack that it required several stitches.
And the second time was when I apparently didn't learn my lesson the first time and did the exact same fucking thing again. In the same god damn store.
I'm kinda surprised my mother and I weren't banned from that store forever.

luckily it was a fairly straight, clean stick with no little twigs or anything
didn't really do any damage at all amazingly. They just cleaned it out and stitched up the entry and all was good. Didn't even get infected.
I once tore out a fingernail by falling strangely
The kindergarden teacher drove me to hospital, and the doctor told me "indians don't cry!"
I was never a fan of indians

Houk why was this christmas so bad
you are in Glorious Nippon, I thought everything was panties and vending machines and giant robots
That is a shame Houk, on the bright side you get to experience it from another culture, and next year you could have a really big Christmas that you plan yourself, with artificial snow and presents. Plus, you get to enjoy all the other cool days in the Japanese calender.

no actually, as much as this xmas was unlike any other xmas ive ever experienced, i wouldnt trade it for the world. tonight i got made amazing japanese food, and i have a perspective i never wouldve seen otherwise. its not what i would have hoped for, but its also very much a once-in-a-lifetime thing, as cheesy as that sounds
Sort of on topic; woke up yesterday to a grandma who had no clue who any of my family is, who couldn't work out how to use a kettle and could barely lift toast to her mouth. 8 hours in a hospital waiting for a bed because she'd had a stroke and needed to be kept for observation. Best christmas present ever coming home from work and seeing her with a mug of tea. Thankfully it was only a temporary thing, horrible thinking that she wasn't even dead, just unable to function.
I mean, piece, chunk, tear, gash, those things I can understand.
But when you say scoop
that just sounds creepy as fuck.
Because the hole in my neck looks like someone took a scoop out of it.
Do you know what?
I cannot argue with that.
I knew a guy who had a stroke once (well, I knew a guy who's uncle had had a stroke once), and afterward he moved really slow and the only word he could say was "shit".
One time I was visiting him at the care center he was at with my friend and my friend left for a couple of minutes to get something and the guy kept trying to open the drawer in this dresser, so I'm helping him out and and asking him what he's looking for and he keeps putting his fingers to his mouth, like a smoking motion, and I see a pack of cigarettes in there, but it's empty, so I show him but he keeps motioning like he's looking for something and getting upset and saying "shit" over and over again, and I'm like "man, I really want to help you, but I have no damn idea what we are looking for if it's not cigarettes or gum or something like that because there is nothing in this drawer that goes in people's mouths".
My friend comes back and explains that he's looking for his money, so he can go to the little cafe and get a cup of coffee.
I hope I never have a stroke.

my boyfriend's grandma has alzheimer's disease, and sing jankee doodle all the time and says 'down down down down down oh yeah'. she's trying to sing that 'down, down down, down down down, down-be-doobie-down' song but can't quite do it.
she doesn't know who anyone but his grandpa is, but she gives everyone a hug whenever we see her and says 'you look so good.' taps her head with her finger and says 'i sure do hope i get better!'
heartbreaking.
my grandpa was even worse, he forgot how to speak english during the last few years of his life and only spoke mumbled broken spanish and couldn't control his basic functions. he never knew where he was or who anyone was. he was the only grandparent that gave a crap about me and of course he is the one we lose.
getting old is terrifying. my bf's grandma was in the ice capades and loved music, my grandpa was a boxer and a very accomplished man, he did a lot in his life, then poof, he can't even communicate anymore. check out this handsome devil

It was pretty deep and it looked gross and boy did it bleed. But it didn't really hurt.
I tripped over on a hike in boy scouts
and I put out my hand to break my fall
and my hand drove itself down onto a quarter inch stick which went about 3 inches into my wrist at the base of my palm
that was pretty bad.
Need some stuff designed or printed? I can help with that.
Jesus!

I feel for ya Bel.
More importantly ZOMBIE FINGER.
please don't click this link if you don't want to see my zombie fingertip
don't come crying to me when you have nightmares
I took these just an hour or two ago; it is looking vastly improved since christmas
it looks painful, and so swollen! did you get cap to kiss it better?
the christmas present that doesn't bite
The biggest of hugs.... while avoiding your creepy undead appendage
he has been tenderly kissing the bandage but I can't say I want anyone's mouth near it at present
he has also been helping me change the bandage, because (embarrassing) I get a little lightheaded when I do it
those are some wicked pictures
PARKER, YOU'RE FIRED! <-- My comic book podcast! Satan look here!
it honestly doesn't look as bad as I thought it would!
haha man i bet i would too. when do you get the stitches out?
they said two weeks. I have to call and make an appointment tomorrow
I cannot wait to see how much this all costs without insurance
