Does getting married count?

I guess you and Yoshi have something in common.

I'm smarter. Yoshi is still married.

My most painful experience would have to be when I burned the shit out of my right wrist. I was working at a seafood counter, we had a huge sale on lobsters and we steamed them for any customers who wanted them. I had just gotten a painful burn on two of my fingers on my left hand so I remember trying to be more careful. When you first open the steamer door a bunch of steam comes out. So I waited for that to dissipate and then reached in with my left hand (gloved) to pull the things out. Well this big ole column of steam came out and hit my wrist. I didn't notice at first what had happened, I thought it was just a regular red burn. After I gave the customer her stuff, I was running it under cold water and I noticed the bubble developing. I waited for about 3-4 hours before I called a coworker over. Every time I stopped running it under water, and had just a bag of ice on it, it burned. And each time I had to put the bag down and help a customer, it felt like someone had a lighter to my wrist. I ended up going to the hospital and then getting a week off work, wearing a sling and a brace since they were worried that the burn might have healed badly because I'm keloid prone (I sometimes over develop scar tissue) and it was in an awkward place. The burn actually stretched from the first knuckle of my thumb down about 5-6 inches. The bubble was the worst part though. That was a tiny bit bigger than a silver dollar. And angry. Gauze pads and ointment. hard to sleep the first night. Didn't take the meds though.

Other than that I cant recall anything super painful. just annoying. I've broken bones, and worn shoes 2 sizes too small where it felt like someone was stabbing a needle into my foot after a day of walking, had all 4 wisdom teeth out but walked on my own out of the office, stayed upright bored and hungry, refused my pain meds, hit my head more times than I can count, broken many toes, had so many scrapes and scratches from falling down on cement, got the tip of my ring finger cut off, and a nasty case of mono with a bitten tongue and about 20 canker sores in my mouth at the same time, lasting a month. I couldn't eat anything, I just drank a shit load of water. Yogurt burned my mouth and throat. But that was just annoying. Pain is fairly easy to manage for me. Hence the back and belly tattoo.

had all 4 wisdom teeth out but walked on my own out of the office

Me too. 3 of the 4 teeth were impacted and the oral surgeon pratically begged to knock me out, but I just had him shoot me up with novocane and yank 'em. One tooth wouldn't pop out and he had to drill it into seperate sections and remove it piece by piece. That sucked, but overall, it really wasn't that bad.

I had terrible terrible ear aches as a child. I can remember not being able to sleep because of the pain, it was something like having a screwdriver jammed into your ear over and over again, and there really wasn't anything to do but wait it out and see the doctor the next day. I ended up having some surgery done and they went away after that.

Other than that I can't remember anything worse than a really bad migraine.

The only 2 hour shit I ever dropped stayed in the bowl for an entire day's worth of flushes. It wouldn't even dissolve overnight. I had to break it up with a toilet brush.

edit: it might have been a coat hanger now that i think about it.

I think I remember you telling us it was a coat hanger. As for myself, I'm in the same boat as Dolemite in that I never broke any bones, but have had an assload of stitches. Some of the most painful:

About 9 years old, as I'm leaving my brothers house, I plant myself to jump down the stairs with my hands behind me. My right pinky gets caught in the back part of the door near the hinges, without me noticing at first. I try to jump and it yanks my finger hard. WHen I realize it, I turn around and try to take my finger out because it hurts like hell. I'm yanking and screaming, and when someone finally opens the door, I start screaming even louder when I get a look at my finger. The top part of my pinky is pretty much dark purple, and is barely still hanging on by a smallish sliver of skin. To make matters worse? No one has a car, and the phone wasn't on, so we had to walk to the hospital. God, getting the stitches in my finger hurt like hell, as I can feel the sliding whatever it is the stitches are connected to through my finger for each individual one. Never again.


More recently, about two years ago, when I was in the shower, my towel slipped off the top part of the shower and was dangling by a string. Having finished, instead of just getting out of the shower and grabbing it, I reached around the corner of the shower to grab the towel. My body was contorted very oddly, and my left foot slipped on the wet floor, and bent inward at an almost complete 90 degree angle. I screamed and hopped a little bit before my knee almost gave out. I stood in the shower for a complete half hour on one foot, because I was too afraid to put weight on the other one. Building up the courage, I did it finally, and oh lord did it hurt. I imagine that was probably as close as it could posssibly go without breaking. And the kicker? I didnt have any health coverage at the time, and hell, I was barely able to pay my tuition monthly on time, so I didn't go to the hospital. To this day, every so often, my left knee will wobble for no reason.

Nah, they put me under, laughing gas and something they injected. I only note the difference because my sister had the same thing (all four out same time, went under) and she had to be practically carried out. Whereas I walked on my own out to the car. And she cried alot and vomited everything she tried to eat/drink. She was in a ton of pain.

So in contrast, I was sitting up, hungry, bored and refusing all pain meds. The nurse called the house and talked to my mom, I think she was concerned about me. They had to go in a break each tooth apart to get them out, drill or whatever and I have a jaw that dislocates when I open my mouth too wide, which I guarantee they did. and when she found out that I was sitting up, apparently lucid and not on pain meds, she was in a bit of a shock.

I just remember that I wanted a chicken breast sandwich very much and I was pissed that the prevalent taste in my mouth was blood.

Redheads. Mm, redheads.

It's all about the fire crotch and freckles on the vagina!
