You went to the ER for a broken pinky? Did you have bone coming through the skin or something? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

no, but i don't have a doctor i can just go see here at college. i didn't go until the next day (saturday) and NYUs urgent care center on campus is closed on the weekends.

i broke my pinkie playing football a year ago. my friend is a paramedic and i asked him what i should do. he said he could pull it back in place or i could go to the ER and they could do it. so he snapped it back and i kept playing. it freakin hurt though.

about a week later it was swollen like a balloon. i was a little bothered thinking i got bad advice from my friend so i went to the doctor and the doc told me the ER would have done the same thing. wasted my copay that morning.

I shaved my head once on a drunken whim (that's not the dumb part). A friend warned me that if I go outside, I should put sunscreen on my head. I ignored her and spent a day in the sun. My scalp got sunburned and for a week my head looked disgusting with dry skin flaking off and some clear fluid dripping from it.

In my defense, this was not a "I'm some fancy boy with blonde hair" thing, this was my 18 year old I'm punk rock and I want a blonde mohawk type thing.

I was in high school near a concreted patio area with some friends. I couldn't play basketball for crap, but my friends were really into it. So they'd jump up on this little ledge thing there some height above us and grab onto it, and lift themselves up as if they were slam dunking.

I decided I'd try and show how cool I was by doing it also. In high school I was somewhat overweight and as I said, completely crap at basketball. I took a runup, jumped, grabbed the ledge... but the runup I took gave my body momentum that carried most of me forward while my hands were back grabbing the ledge. I ended up horizontal before my hands slipped and I fell flat on the concrete ground on my back. Very painful, and very embaressing too. I was just trying to fit in.

Damn highschool social ladder structure, burn in hell you bastards.

I second this... without the repeat.

I never knew I broke my wrist, though, and it bit me in the ass when, over a year later, I had the back piece of a shelving unit fall on the same wrist at work.

Workers Comp said "Old injury, we're not paying." Thank god for insurance, or I'd have been $25K in the hole.
