The Manly Thread

Wow, the most that's happened to me is breaking my wrist! Maybe some people are just accident prone...

[Wylder Treejumper]

I have nearly died by crashing my bike and then nearly being run over by a car. I have seen somebody's finger get cut off. But that is not the grossest thing I have seen. I feel kinda weird posting it though. It's not inappropriate, just really gross... PM me if you really want to know...

I nearly died by falling down a thirty-foot deep ravine.
On a more boyish note (rather than morbid) I'm nearly done with the kukri for my brother.

[Søren]

Well that's nice. (What's a kukri?)

[The Skarzs]

It's the traditional war knife of the Nepalese warriors, the Gurkhas. It is a fearsome fighting knife, and is known to be able to cut off an arm with one swing.

[Søren]

Wow, cool.

[Leatho Shellhound]

I've never really liked the shape of a kukri blade, it always seemed a little akward to handle.

[The Skarzs]

That's what I thought too, but if they're made right then they feel wonderful. They also are great at chopping and splitting wood.

[Leatho Shellhound]

Really! Wow, okay I would not have guessed that.

[The Skarzs]

Yeah; if ever you have a chance to hold one, you should try it.

Lol, seems like Tiria got a Santa hat.

[Søren]

Hehe, Leatho, I always thought for some reason that your profile pic is of Learho Shellhound, not Tiria. It occurred to me after I read the little message below your name.

   Worst thing that has happened to me injury-wise is... Uhhh... Acid reflux? Putting my hand on a hot piece of metal when I was two? Falling occasionally? I'm an extraordinarily cautious person... I could never do something like skydiving, and as a general rule, anything considered physically daring would terrify me. So I almost never get hurt. Ha-ha!

   I suppose I've caused a bad injury, though. When I was much younger, my family went bowling. Now, there was a light blue ball and a heavy blue ball. I was young, I got them mixed up. I dropped the heavy one. On my mom's foot. Her toe was broken. It healed fine, but it was bad. Not horrifying or abnormal (for a broken toe) anything, but bad.

[The Skarzs]

Lovely.

[The Mask]

Tearing a ligament would be the worst injury I've had. Not the most painful but the most annoying because I couldn't run around. :O

[Leatho Shellhound]

I've never been to a hospital or a doctor's office for an injury or sickness, I suppose it's b/c I think before I do... even when I was a little kid.
