Them little bastages hurt.
Getting stabbed in the forehead with woodclamps equally sucks, but I suppose it's not as common. :D

Playing with my nephew once years ago, I dropped on my knees and my left knee came down on a Lego piece. I thought I was gonna die.

yeah... I got your Lego beat. When I was a kid, I found a sewing needle my mom had lost in the carpet with my barefoot. Got lucky because it came all the way through without hitting a bone, but hurt like nothing else before or since. Legos ain't $h!t!

Young traumas like this may account for my high pain threshold and affinity for piercings and tattoos.

The bad news ... Legos are forever. Our daughter is 28 and for some mysterious reason her old Legos still crawl out of their ancient hiding places for us to step on.

I've punctured the bottom of my foot on little construction equipment toys I've bought for my son. Lego's will be pretty soon. Now I'm scared :r

Drinking a beer with a cigarette butt in it.

A number of years ago a bunch of buddies and I were getting wasted on the 4th of july. It was really late, we were drinking in the kitchen, and one of my friends proceeds to take a huge drink from what he thought was his beer can, when in reality he just took a big swig of someone's spitter.

Good thing he was close to the sink, because :pu :pu :pu :pu

Scott, if your kid wants legos REALLY bad and you want to get them for them REALLY bad and they REALLY deserve to have them but alas you cannot afford them, EVER, I think that would suck more than stepping on the lego you already have.

I've stepped on lots of Legos. I've bashed my head on woodclamps a bunch too. Car door frames hurt a lot. Hammers on top of ladders will always fall in the center of the top of your head with the hardest part of the hammer. It's physics.
All of these are to be avoided. Don't do them.

Stepped on the claw end of a hammer bare footed before. It was hiding under a piece of news paper in the garage and layed my heel open like a knife blade.

Getting a tiny sliver of glass stuck in the sole of your foot sucks, too. Especially when you don't realize it at first, and it gets infected.

When I was a kid there were a few times that I ripped the nail off of one of my toes. I used to always be barefoot outside in the summer, so you know...

The worst was when I somehow got a splinter caught under a fingernail. I mean, it was a good 1/4 inch under the nail, too. It began to get infected, so I just took a sewing needle, sterilized it, and carefully dug the tiny sliver out of there.

Did that a couple weeks ago with a shard of plate glass. No infection, but the suckage was high...

Imagine, if you will, a big dumb farmer trying to catch a pheasant in a flight pen that's shorter than him. Said flight pen is built of rough cut 2x4's. The roof netting supports are rough cut hemlock, as well.
The skillset here is bending over, getting the particular bird you need to fly up and hit the roof netting where he stalls and you grab him mid-flight. Sometimes a little burst of speed is necessary.
If your focus on the bird, timing, and speed are all just right, you can tell you didn't catch the bird when you wake up laying in the mud, looking up at the trees.
Yes, it leaves a mark. :r

Driving a 4 wheeler through a barbed wire fence at deer camp and almost decapitating yourself at the age of 13 was not fun in the least. To top that on the way to the closest hospital, 2 hours away, our car hit a deer and totaled the car. We waited for an hour on the side of the road before someone picked us up and took me to the hospital where plastic surgeons did wonders.

A friend of mine did that, it went in half way and snapped off inside. He had to have it surgically removed, right between his big toe and the one next to it.

Halliburton, my ex used to do that all the time. We'd be in the kitchen cooking and she'd leave every cupboard door open (and I DO mean every single farking one.). I'd turn around with a bowl full of whatever and catch a door right in the face. Either that, or I'd get blasted in the nads with the lower cupboard door.
She'd even open a door while I was picking something up from the floor so that I'd stand up and get stabbed in the top of my head and bleed all through dinner.
In retrospect, it was a rather genius strategy on her part.
Why she hated me so, I'll never know, but the charming things that'd come out of my mouth in those sorts of situations may have had something to do with it. :D

How about digging around behind the woodshed for logs, throwing them on the campfire, then (after many drinks) using a tree as a urinal. Sounds harmless until you realize that the back of the woodshed is covered in poison ivy.

Yeah, apparently urushiol doesn't bond too well to the skin on the inside of your hands due to the type of skin. It will, but not as bad. Since it doesn't bond to your hands very well (inside), it will transfer. Unfortunately it does bond to, shall we say "more sensitive" areas.

I will attest that this stuff is the only cure in the world that works for posion ivy, and yes it works even in sensitive areas.
