Wierdest thing you've ever cut yourself with?

[HEyHEY]

I once managed to cut myself on an ice machine...I don't mean scrape, Imean cut.

1. How about the drain pipe of a sink in a chruch bathroom

trying to take it apart to get a tie tack that fell down in there, while tripping your face off on acid?
That was a strange month or two.

[HEyHEY]

2. Sounds like an adventure

:-)

[WannaJumpMyScooter]

6. I still have the tie tack

and the scars on my palms

[greatauntoftriplets]

That'll teach you to stay out of churches!

I avoid them like the plague. Got hauled into one at about one month old and they doused me with this damned water! It was cold!!!

[WilliamPitt]

3. A french fry

The fries in my HS cafeteria were as hard as bullets. I bit into one, and it bent in half, plunging the dart-sharp end up into the roof of my mouth. Yes, it cost me some blood.

[HEyHEY]

5. jeez sounds like they were serving you nails.

11. Jesus h christ Will

Between this and the "how many bones have you broken" thread, I'm starting to think you should be wrapped in Nerf or kevlar or something at all times. :-)

4. golf cart battery recharger

man that hurt.

[pop goes the weasel]

7. cardboard

corrugated cardboard. It was one hell of a paper cut!

[ScreamingMeemie]

8. Two things. I cut myself (requiring stitches) on the back of our sink

while cleaning it. There was a jagged edge from a break when they set it in I guess and it cut me. Ouch! The second was on an ATM machine when I was a bank teller. I cut myself on the drawer holding the money as I was sliding it back in...silly me.

[HEyHEY]

9. Sinks appear to be danger zones for this

We must declare war on them!

[ScreamingMeemie]

10. By golly! I think you are right. To the sinks!!

After you get those rat bastards in that other forum that is. :hi:

[radwriter0555]

12. I impaled my hand on a piece of stained glass that I was cutting...

It went almost all the way through...

[radwriter0555]

15. Oh & my brother sliced my hand with a bayonet that he was waving in my

face... I grabbed it..

[HEyHEY]

17. A bayonet drew blood......wierd

Now I've heard everything. ;-)

[Robb]

13. Sled runner, collar snap, line burn...

Actually, dogsledding lately has banged the hell out of me. My hands look like I box bareknuckle on the weekends. :)

[DS1]

14. My computer

lost a surprising amount of blood actually

[HEyHEY]

16. How?

I mean that. How?

[DS1]

19. When you add a CD type device

you usually need to remove a piece of metal that covers the slot. I managed to cut halfway up my finger in the process. It was a love/hate relationship by then, similar to "Christine".

[WilliamPitt]

28. Your computer went out and killed people?

[DS1]

29. Turn your music down and look outside

You hear that slow, metallic scraping? It's working it's way up Mass Ave as we speak, smartypants.

[earthman dave]

18. Amplifier, computer case, ladder

Actually, now that you mention it, it seems that a disturbingly high number of the objects in my house have sharp metal flanges.

<looks around nervously>

20. A free B.C. glass from a gas station..

For you kids.. Back in the olden days, gas stations gave you glassware, green stamps and sometimes other freebies..

[Scurrilous]

21. Sardine can.

Those lids are sharp. I yanked one off one day and it sliced right through the web of skin between my thumb and forefinger. Took 5 stitches to close the hole.

[Fenris]

22. Corningware Dish

Dropped it in the sink whilst washing it. Still have a nasty scar.

[Ilsa]

23. A blade of grass.

I think it St. Augustine. Ouch.

[Catch22Dem]

24. An F-15 Radar Transmitter

Cut the shit out of my finger.

[ozymandius]

25. the price sticker on a Coke machine.

an old, old Coke machine - about thirty years ago.

[librechik]

26. a piece of toast

a sharp edge on the top crust--I'm old, but I've never seen anything like that. It bled, too!

[Kat45]

27. A courthouse door cut my foot through my new leather shoe

when all of us jury duty folks got dismissed for the day and everyone was racing out the door. The bottom corner of the big heavy door somehow sliced through my shoe, into my foot, and I hollered so loudly that a court person came over, helped me to a chair, and got a bandage for my foot. I ended up getting a tetanus shot later. The whole thing was bizarre! (Making the day more bizarre, after hobbling my way to the bus stop and getting home, when I went to my car I found that my tire had been slashed the previous night!)

30. Rainbow brand Wakeboard fin

31. A radiator in my old house...

I fell down the stairs when I was two...cut my bottom lip (my teeth went through it, actually) and I have a four inch scar on my chin to prove it.

[cosmicdot]

32. on a sharp part of a footlocker latch

which happened in '97 - had to have stitches ...

and, when I was a kid ... running in the sand dunes ... caught a big old rusty nail protruding from what looked like a railroad tie buried with just one end above the sand ...


then, there was the bicycle accident in '63 .........................

[bobthedrummer]

33. A pineapple

eom

[BigDaddyLove]

34. A spatula.

.....it attacked me.

[nuxvomica]

35. A nautilus leg extension machine

I reached back to adjust the seat and slit my palm on the adjustment mechanism thingy. Bled like crazy but required no stitches.

[starroute]

36. A car key

I've still got the scar on my hand, too. Car keys don't make a very neat incision.

I also cut myself on the first poptop can I ever tried to open, back when I was a kid and they'd just been invented. I've had a distrust of those things ever since, though I have to admit they do seem a little safer these days.

[PVnRT]

37. A small pistol while target shooting

Had my thumb in the wrong place the first time I fired it - WHACK off goes a chunk of skin.

[twistedliberal]

38. Ice machine here too!!!

How did it happen?

I was working maintenance at a resort when I was in high school and had to clean the ice machines about twice a month because the water was so rusty and scaly. I was pulling the hose off the top distribution thingy and when it came off...WHAM!! The knuckle of my right thumb hit the edge of the frame dead-on and I think it almost cut through the tendon.

I stuck a band-aid on it and kept working. Had to replace the band-aid too often because it kept getting wet and I didn't want to get blood in the ice machine and have to clean it again, so I wrapped it with gauze and electrical tape. It kept bleeding for the next few days. I finally scrubbed it really clean, then made a makeshift device out of duct tape that pulled my thumb back towards my wrist so I couldn't bend it and open the wound while I slept. It finally healed after a couple of weeks.

[ornotna]

39. Dried caulk while trying to remove it

I was trying to cut it out with a razor knife and my hand slipped and I scraped my knuckle across the caulk and sliced it open. So, basically I cut myself with latex. :eyes:

40. The trailing edge of a Navy jet wing.

I'd only been in the Navy a few months. Was working nights. We were pre-flighting the aircraft with flashlights and trying to hurry. Wasn't watching where I was going. BAM. It took about eight stitches to sew up my noggin just above my forehead.
