Stupid Accidents

Burnsy2023 · 7 Sep 2008 at 00:39

So, whilst getting ready for a wedding I was doing a lot of walking in and out of my room. Rather stupidly, I'd left my rather sharp hunting knife unsheathed on a bedside table.

On leaving my room I nudged it off the table resulting in it falling into my leg, taking a nice gash out of said leg. After mopping up the blood and dressing the wound, I have been limping the rest of the day. This is rather annoying when trying to impress various ladies at the wedding. So I just ended up getting stupidly drunk instead (open bar Wooo!)

Anyone else got silly injuries?

Sliced down to the bone in one of my fingers with one of those bread knives which dont cut one way, but OMG cut the other way.

I wasnt even cutting anything, i was just fiddling with the knife as it was on my coffee table when i was watching tv

Almost snapped my ankle when i was standing on the toilet bowl (long story, nothing perverted - lol) and slipped and managed to ram my foot into the pan with all 15st of me behind it.

Oh and before you ask, I was wasted

I took a big slice out of my knee once when I was chipping some tiles off my bathroom wall, lots of blood, but surprisingly little pain at the time

You have a knife out ready in your bedroom?
Do you go out with psychotic women or something?

We don't make mistakes here, we have happy accidents

Or were you cutting the bedsheets into strips, making a rope (Macguyver style) in order to escape from said wedding?

Yes. The restraining order only does so much, sometimes you have to be prepared.

If I were MacGuyver, I'd make a RPG out of bedsheets, a match, 5 golf balls and a tin of spam to escape said wedding.

Seems to be not just me who noticed it then...

Earlier today i was cycling through some meadows near where i live and managed to bike across what appeared to be a fox trap (wtf!?), cue me flying over the handlebars into... nice, soft, long grass? No, a massive pile of ****ing nettles and thistles :mad:

I read the title as "stupid accents"

So my reply is "scouse"

*edit* the reply also would work with the actual title

Me and my brother were messing about with my knife and he ended up getting a small gash on his hand. Ended up waiting from 1am to 8am in the minor injurys department

. Serves us right tho

Nothing recently really, except that recently i've been waking up with some weird ones. A couple of days ago I woke up with a swollen and sore ankle, and it hurt for the whole day.

The girlfriend had a funny accident a couple of weeks back - we were having a swordfight with shoes, she stepped back onto my trainers left on the floor, which caused her to trip, right into the cactus we keep on the windowsill.

It was hilarious - she sat right on it arse first, and she wasn't wearing any trousers! Was like something out of a cartoon.

Apart from falling into a ditch and spraining my ankle why blindingly drunk a few years ago, nothing very stupid.

A friend of mine year ago was messing around stabbing a cardboard packet with a swiss army knife and managed to plunge said knife into his leg as far as it would go somehow. I remember marveling at his stupidity and then arguing about whether we should take it out before we took him to hospital. We were about 17 though...
