I did a stupid and want to say thanks to the NHS who patched me up. Ask me about the stupid, it's pretty stupid.
I hurt myself today
to see if I still feel.
I focus on the pain
the only thing that's real...
Lol that's the first thing I thought of when I read the title.
to see if you still feel the pain ? right
To see if I still feel.
I focus on the pain
The only thing that's real
The needle tears a hole
the old familiar sting
try to kill it all away
But I remember .. everything.
What have I become?
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know, goes away in the end.
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you...
squirt
Spoiler
I normally hate crass jokes like this, but this was genuinely unexpected and perfectly placed. Johnny Cash had already sung "I will make you squirt" in my head before I even know what was happening. Bravo.
i hesitated to ruin the thread for one of my favorite songs right at the end but i just couldn't stop myself
What a ride! That's what she said.
And you could have it all,
My empire of dirt.
Or was it an empire of shit?
We need to know if you wanted Jesus or heroin.
Empire of dirt.
The shit was "crown of shit" in Trent Reznor's original. In Johnny Cash's cover he changed it to "crown of thorns".
It was dirt. In all versions. The "shit" change was elsewhere in the song.
Original:
I wear this crown of shit
Abomination:
I wear this crown of thorns
the cover is sooooo much better than the original tho
If it makes you feel smarter the other day I ran a drill bit into the gap between my finger and finger nail 🥲
I'm not the smartest lmao. Don't drill into objects with your finger behind the spot you're drilling into to support the material (in my defense it was a thin flexible marierial in a weird shape that was hard to support and I guess I thought my finger was out of the way enough and/or I could move it as the drill started to go though... I'm an idiot lol)
Sending wishes for speedy recovery my friend!
Stop posting here, you should focus on the pain.
The only thing that's real.
What have I become?
You’ve become my Swedish friend.
What have I become?
My sweetest friend ?
The same, but with an index finger that now and forever won't point straight.
What did you do to get the injury?
So...you know how sometimes vehicles sound a bit rough, and you think " I'll look at YouTube" and youtube says maybe it the wheel bearing, and you jack it up and spin the wheel and listen and see if it is the wheel bearing? What youtube (and common sense) doesn't say is don't put your finger in the rim to spin it, because there's a caliper there. Trust, you do not want your finger in between a wheel and a caliper when you are trying to spin the drive wheel as hard as you can.
In the future rather then spin it grab the tyre and wobble it.
If it's got movement it's shagged.
Just don't pull it off what ever you have it jacked up on.
The real benefit is if you're wheel bearing is really rooted you can tell on the ground.
Spinning can tell you about cv shafts though because they tend to click.
Source am mechanic
...amazing
...ly fucking stupid. I am stunned at my own idiocy.
You'd be surprised at how many intelligent people do incredibly stupid things.
I bet you won't stick your finger in there again. As long as you've learned that lesson, I wouldn't be hard on yourself if I were you.
You shouldn't be so hard on yourself, even from an injury like this.
Take 2 aspirins and 750ml of good brandy and mail me $75. And we will both be happy!
Get well good sir!
Don’t listen to him! You just put the lime in the coconut and drink them both up. It is off label but it’ll still work. The cost is only a dime and a lime and… I think another coconut you pay for the lime? Is that how it goes? So you need 20 cents to buy 2 coconuts and trade one for a lime?
Lime and coconut gives you an upset tummy, you silly woman.
Besides, good whiskey never lets you lose your place. No wait, that's a whole different song.
I hurt myself today
To see if you still feel?
Did the needle tear a hole?
I did mine two days ago, took a chunk of finger tip out while cutting a loaf of bread on a cutting board which was not on a non-slip surface. People talk about how nice sourdough is, but never how dangerous. Worth it.
