They even have a pain level? What's the scale? From a nick in the skin to limbs torn off?
The greatest injury I've even had is probably when I was fighting over a plastic shovel in kindergarden. Ohh, I'm getting nostalgic thinking about it! OK, look here: I was building a nice castle/retreat in the sand box, and I left the shovel a bit to do some fine adjustments on the balcony with my fingers. After I'm satisfied with it, I turn to find the shovel again, and this guy, Thomas (who later went in a parallell class in elementary) has taken it. He wasn't using it for anything particular, but did not want to let go of it anyway. I was in my full right to demand he return it to me, since I could not continue on my masterwork of art without the shovel.
Up until this point, my memory is pretty clear. Then I remember we had a lengthy quarrel (for kids, at least) and lastly, got in a fight over it. He was armed, of course, because he gripped the shovel in his hands. What basically happened was that I rushed at him and reached out to grab the shovel, when he swung them backwards to deny me access. But of course, as he did that, the arm reached its limit, and the shovel began pivoting around, up, and down - with the edge aimed right at my head.
I don't know if it was all intentional, but I ended up with quite a gash on the top of my head. What made me cry was all the blood - it was streaming down like I'd suffered a skull fracture. fortunately, I only had a few stings and it was all healed in a few weeks. I don't recall if Thomas got into some kind of trouble after the incident, but he wasn't the bully type at all, so I guess it was sort of filed away as a freak accident. Good for him, anyway. I don't hold it against him, kids are kids.
Either that, or the time when my uncle was swinging me around in the air while holding my arms. I think I was about the same age. This is apparently not a smart thing to do with children, since they haven't yet fully developed skeletons. This was what saved me as well, when all of the sudden, one of my arms is yanked out of the socket. I was quickly let down, and I sort of felt weird, because my arm didn't move at all. Then my dad came charging across the lawn, grabbed my arm and shoulder, and pushed my arm back up in the socket. It felt VERY awkward to have one arm dangling. I sometimes think I was damaged by it, though. Although my arms work just fine, my left arm is not as flexible as my right. I don't remember which one went out, but it might have made that arm more/less flexible, which kind of bugs me. I've always preferred symmetry.
Anyway, enough of my boring brags about minor injuries. BTW, what thread is this?
