well shit

[mattRS]

i guess i may win the darwin award this year. i was at work (at the knife shoppe in vista ridge mall) walked behind the counter, knocked a sword off the wall, and it went through my foot. not hit my foot, THROUGH my foot. got carried off in a gurney then into an ambulance to lewisville hospital. 4 hours, 17 stitches, and a shitload of lidocaine later, here i am atg home now. by the luck of the irish, it didnt hit any muscle, ligaments, or bones. ill post up pics when i can. woohoo! lortab here i come!

[Meg]

Good Lord! :eek: At least your okay!

[Shelby]

Oh my! Glad to hear you managed with just a cut and stitches....get better quick! :)

[69bigblock]

Practicing your ninja skills at work again? Seriously glad you're okay....

[30birdy]

Jesus H Halogen!! :eek: :eek:

You are DAMN lucky... How big was the sword?? Glad to hear you are ok...

BTW.. do you get to keep your job? ;) Workers comp?

[mattRS]

i get to keep my job, and workers comp is taking care of it. the sword was a claymore, about 15-20 pounds, 4 inches wide, and the blade was about 3 feet long. my adrenaline was going so fast yesterday it didnt hurt much, but today it hurts like SHIT. skipping class for the rest of the day even though i went to my morning class, and i THINK im going to skip my trip to adams mark hotel tomorrow morning.

[yyz28]

I'm not ever going near you... you're a magnet for bad luck!

LOL! I hope you're OK, in all seriousness.

[Mojo]

Wow! Just think of the sweet ass scar you're gonna have now!

And what a killer story to go along with it!!

[TIMMEH]

And what a killer story to go along with it!!
"Yeah I was at the mall, and my dumbass self knocked a sword off the wall. It went through my foot. Nevermind the fact I work at the mall, and that it was my fault it fell off the wall...focus on the SCAR man! Sword THROUGH my foot! SEE? Scars on both sides of my foot...isn't that cool!!?"

hahahahahahahahaha

[mattRS]

asshole:D
seriously though, i AM a magnet for stupid shit. like this: i had knee surgery two months ago because ive blown out my knee three times and it got to the point where it would pop halfway out about once a week. how did i blow it out those three times? once at church reaching for a microphone, once at a UTD party drunkenly stumbling to my ex's car, and once AT THE HOSPITAL getting into a chair to take a blood test. my wrecks? totalled my metro in a parking lot form an explorer hitting me, totalled my jeep hitting a tractor (long story, wasnt my fault, dont ask), got arrested in addison for no front LP. i just need to live in a padded room. BTW, here's some nicknames that have been picked out for me. Zorro , by my sister, Crash, by my brother in law (actually been a nickname since i was 4 ), and highlander, by my roommate. yall want to vote on it?

Dayum!!! Sorry to hear that. Hopefully you'll heal quickly.

[futant]

LMAO MAN! wheeeeeewwwwww

It must have been that mall ninja thats been reportedly 'throwing' two-handed swords at people. If it weren't for your cat like reflexes it would have caught you in the lung.
For some reason I really want to see the customers face you were about to ring up.

CLASSIC

cheer up it must have missed your nads by inches! :D

that sumbitch has been givign me so much shit lately, i swear im going to catch him one of these days. and on the customer note, when it fell i yelled "oh shit!" just out of reflex. i didnt feel it hit because i went into instant shock, but they came running in and asked if i was alright, i said yeah, then looked down and said "maybe yall should go get somebody". freaked the hell out of them.

[mattRS]

and it only missed my nads by inches because im hung like a camel:D

[HisLS1]

Is the sword OK? J/K ;) Somebody with your accident prone-ness does NOT need to be working in a place where you are surrounded by sharp objects! :nono: Seriously though, glad you're OK.

[futant]
