Heya. I've been lurking here for a day or so and decided to sign up :P. So, to the point, my injuries:

Once upon a time, I was stupid and a jerk as a toddler. During vacation, I broke my skull open when I tripped and fell on a marble fireplace. I had to be rushed to the emergency room for stitches or something. I remember them using a syringe-like thing (the tip was plastic) as a water gun to clean the wound out. They let me keep it, but I, unfortunately, lost it. >< Oddly enough, after I broke my head, I was no longer stupid! :shock:

Other than that, although not injuries, I have had at least 8 fillings ><

I'm getting a wisdom tooth removed soon, what does it feel like? Does laughing gas pwn?

Well, anyways, I hope to stay on this forum and maybe make my SNES portable.

I once walked into the supporting pole of a covered courtyard because I was looking at the sign for a sale on Xbox's at EB games.

Not serious but kind of cool, I was using a 100W soldering gun and it slipped and hit my hand but it was so hot that I guess it instantly cauterized the skin, no blistering, no pain, so I just clipped away this ragged bit and had this kind of missing patch of outer skin and bandaged it up a few weeks later you could barely tell I'd been burned!

Soldering guns - A low-tech alternative to a light saber.

I have a disease called bandgeekoritus. I also have a tan from my monitor.

Not to poke fun at MESA, but did it involve, skin and the crotch, and a scalpel :wink: ... :lol: .

lol, well, now that that is out of the way...my worst thing ever, was a condition like Triton's, and I believe it was called Henoch Scholockman Purpura...HSP for short. Almost lost my kidney's that night....almost. And the anabolic steroids to give my strength...stunned growth and an odd high in voice....seriously! Well, that's it, shed not a tear for AJ :P

I had a nail through my fingure at 6

I flew over my bicycle handles at 8

I had a ganglian cyst the size of a ping pong ball removed a few months ago (at 19)

I also had my wisdom teeth removed at 14

I am allergic to most small critters that bite (too many mosquito bites and I run a fever)

And I have a serious burn from the moon...

A few months before the head breaking incident, I broke my wrist. I was having breakfast and was trying to see the TV over the cereal boxes, so I started to stand up. The chair fell backwards and I slammed my wrist on my dad's briefcase. Not fun ><.

I have an honest to God phobie of needles. When I see them I can actually feel adrenaline in me. One time, I had to get a shot for my strep throat (A speedier and cheaper alternative to amoxucillin pills) which has to be injected into the thigh for some odd reason. They had me pull down my pants, and I thought I was ready and I was all braced for it but as soon as the nurse walked in and I saw the needle I flipped out, started kicking and screaming and she called in for more nurses and I fell off of the table and slammed my head into the floor and my vision turned all white for about half a minute and then I snapped out fo it and I was fine. No pain or anything. Still had to get the shot, though :P

No he isn't.
Its not the fact that it hurts, because it usually isn't that bad, its that their putting a chunk of metal into your flesh! I hate shots.
I usually try to avoid pain, but I still get my fair share of bumps and bruises.
