   Medical Emergency/New Car
  I almost severed my thumb today.  13 stitches, 4 inside and 9 outside.  Plus I bought a new car.  Sentra Spec V.  TOO BAD IT'S STICKSHIFT, FRANKENFINGER!!!   Grrr...   
  I never grip the shifter anyway.   ;  Meh, who needs both their thumbs now-a-days anyway... You've always got the other one for the space bar.   ;..Sorry.   ;Seven stiches, almost severed the tendon. I couln't play guitar for over a month. The knife went through my leather gloves like they weren't there. The outside of my finger still doesn't feel the way it should. Kinda dead and tingly when I rub it.   ;No opposable thumbs, and I used to get first place with him all the time. Pansy.   ;Quote:Original post by fisheyel83lI almost severed my thumb today.  13 stitches, 4 inside and 9 outside.  Plus I bought a new car.  Sentra Spec V.  TOO BAD IT'S STICKSHIFT, FRANKENFINGER!!!   Grrr...my godfather nearly lost his thumb in a buffalo chopper. dangling by the skin it was, thank god for modern medicine.  meat slicers can do you a number VERY easily also.  Out of morbid curiosity, what were you doing when you cut it, trying to sign the loan on your new wheels in blood?not a bad car btw. good luck with the stick :Dedit: he didn't do that today btw., it was about 3-4 years ago.  kitchen equipment is unbelievably dangerous, even without the knives. (a bread mixer could snap your arm in half like a twig)   ;  I was taking the door off a range.  The hinge sprung back as soon as it came loose and sliced into my thumb.  I've never seen an oven with a door like that...I guess it was for counterbalancing or something.  It shaved me clear to the bone, and if things had been different it'd have taken the thumb clean off.   ;Quote:Original post by HelplessFoolQuote:Original post by fisheyel83lI almost severed my thumb today.  13 stitches, 4 inside and 9 outside.
