Damn!

Bugger!

I was doing a little job with a sharp knife and being hasty, I slipped and stabbed myself in the thumb.

Right, I thought. Have another go and take more care. Doing! Did exactly the same thing.

Now I have two holes in my thumb about 5mm apart and bleeding nicely. Ouch.

That'll be sore then. Get the plasters out.

Nothing like a bit of Xmas self-harming...

They say things always happen in threes. I'd give myself a little prick if I was you

[Firebottle]

Not funny though is it

A couple of times when there has been a particularly tight fastener and you are leaning hard on the screwdiver, then you think what happens if I slip with this.

Then it happens and you have a hole in your finger/palm or wherever, ouch indeed, been there

There is a rule in woodworking that should apply. I've seen otherwise skilful guys with chisels right through a limb

ALWAYS point the tool away from your body!

(No unnecessary rude comments please)

Reminds me of the story about the guy who lost a finger at the sawmill, when asked to describe how it happened he lifted his hand towards the bench saw and did it again, ouch!

True? Probably not but it made me laugh at the time 😀

I always worry when the dentist is leaning on his pry bar in your mouth like he's lifting the floorboards and you imagine how it will feel if it slips 😔

They already did, oops did I say that out loud ?

Yes. That one crosses my mind when at the dentist too. It'd hurt some. Mind you I've had worse.
