""""OUCHIES"""" I got a boo-boo!--- No! dont touch it!

Last night was my turn to wash the dishes.

Sure enough hiding in the dirty water was this big wickedly sharp Chef's knife.

Yup you guessed it I plunged my hand right in and it sliced the tip of my flip-off finger---deep too!

Well like most guys will I sucked on my finger while mumbling a few choice words. The wife got me a bandage and even offered to kiss the boo-boo for me.

No biggie right--- only today I come to work and wouldn't you know I got this big report to type up and I swear to god by the time I finished page sixteen I was ready to cry!

Stupid knife---stupid me not being able to type with two fingers... Owiw, owie, owie...

I guess it could have been worse--- Could have been a paper cut!

I think that filling ATS with fluff like this to sort through is extremely productive and radically enhances the site.

Dude...

How much of your finger came off? A guy I knew at school, near enough cut off his index finger on a ladder, as he closed it up. It was a bummer for him, because he was a guitarist, and wouldn't you know, it was his left index? He got it reattached because he went straight to the accident and emergency centre, and was back playing to his previous level after about six months. Not bad considering the fact that the finger was only hanging on by the skin, rather than the flesh beneath. Pretty hardcore, HardCorps.

I hope that your finger gets better in any case. There is nothing more aggravating than a finger injury.

This is the general chit chat forum..... get over your self, not one forced you to click it

I feel for you hardcorps, done almost the same exact thing before.
And while paper cuts are bad, it could have been a cardboard cut, seems those go even deep then the paper ones!

I didn't take a slice off...but it did cut right down to the bone.

And I can forget about playing with my baby for a while... not the wife--- my other baby

a reply to: bigfatfurrytexan

My wife has done that too.
did your machine have the two blades sticking out of that plastic middle piece?

Hers was bad enough we almost had to take her in to get stiches.

a reply to: HardCorps

yes sir. it has 2 speeds instead of the single speed the old one had. I had to buy a nutrabullet for my son, and picked that up on sale.

a reply to: HardCorps
You sir are hard core!
When I don't want to do the dishes I just ask my hunney for a pass, she is generally accommodating.
But you sir, just going willy nilly and slicing the tip off your finger in order to get out of KP.
Hard core!

My dad once sliced his thumb open using a kitchen knife to open a tin of paint.

Myself, I sliced off the top two millimeters of my thumb from a heavy metal door to a laundry.

Knew a guy in high school who lost the upper half of his finger when trying to change a light bulb. Put his finger into a live socket and fried everything down to the bone.

In the days of the first desktop PC's, the worst hazard was trying to reinstall those metal plates that were at the back of the box. You had to hold them in place and wiggle, jiggle and slide them around until they went in. It wasn't uncommon for the odd bit of finger to be trapped and pulled off.

Paper cuts are the worst, never quite sure how exactly they happen. Alway seemed to be on an airplane when I'm reading a brand new book. After a few days the paper would seem to soften up.

Naw, it's not Hard Corps...

I do it to get sympathy sex from the wife

a reply to: HardCorps

Hate when that happens.....I don't use my dishwasher and I have many a slice over the years. Tell you a bad one though beginning of last years hay season I was at the barn by myself hooking the sickle mower up to the tractor. Had grabbed the back of the folded blade to pull it forward a bit and my thumb got caught in the sliding blade.....I couldn't let go because the blade would move if I did and cut my thumb off, couldn't yank it out because of how much pressure was on my thumb it would have cut it off. Luckily I had a claw hammer in reach and was able to pry the blade back enough to pull it out. It cut through my thumbnail to the bone about half way across it. I rode the 4 wheeler back to the house trying to drive with my left hand on the right handed throttle lol. My dad was in town and he saw me coming and walked out and I swear his exact words were this......You hurt? me-yeah cut my thumb pretty bad. dad- Is it doctor hurt or just hurt? I laughed at that later. Never did go to the dr, got the bleeding stopped closed up everything with super glue, wrapped everything up with electrical tape and went and cut hay. Wicked cut I feel for ya man.
