Born in the 70s. I’ve sat on my balls twice so far this year. That’s never happened before, I used to just laugh at the idea 😓
Wait until a loose toilet seat at a public bathroom slides to the side, and with all the motion, they get pinched between the seat and the porcelain.
I’ve heard of Poseidon’s kiss but this is a new lvl of danger I’ve never heard of. Thx for the new toilet fear.
Poseidon’s pinch?
Davey Johnson’s Locker?
new fear unlocked
😰 Oh dear, I know it’s going to happen now 😓
Kind of a tangent, but when I was younger I used to accidentally kick myself in the balls by sitting cross legged too quickly and hitting with my heel.
I once sneezed hard and somehow had my hair caught in my armpit, hurting my neck
Thanks, that made me laugh
In my 20s I once threw my back out pressing an elevator button.
I think you just won the thread
I just threw my back out by reading his post
I sustained a stress fracture of the fifth metatarsal completely at random last year. No trauma, no accidents, nothing. Went on a five-day drive and returned to go to work. A week later my foot started hurting really bad. I kept working on it and eventually saw a doctor. Misdiagnosed as plantar fasciitis, and continued to work on it with insoles. After a while I had to get an air boot. Before long it was x-rayed and turned out to be a stress fracture with no apparent origin.
The six month healing process was absolute fucking garbage and I would never do it again. Having nearly two months off of work was nice enough, but I couldn’t do much other than lay around elevating my foot. If I tried to get in my computer the pain in my foot would increase tenfold. Crutches to get around anywhere. Showered by laying spread eagle on the floor of the tub, blasting out my asshole with the shower head. Mornings were excruciating as the blood rushed to the fracture site and caused my foot to swell up big and purple. Genuinely the worst injury I’ve ever had to heal from. I never thought it would get better. I truly thought this was the new normal. You’d think a small stress fracture would be minor. Still hurts here and there but I’m about seven months out and doing a lot better than before.
Have to assume I’m just getting old, I guess.
Probably just an alien foot implant - the injector slips sometimes.
If you’ve never sneezed and thrown your back out, count your blessings.
55 here, I’m a regular runner, not a problem, even ½ marathons. However, I can just be walking to work in the most comfortable shoes, and my ankle randomly gives out, I can’t even move. 5 minutes later it’s back to normal heh.
But I’m very tall. I managed to throw my back out by pushing in an empty dining room chair that even had felt on the bottom of the legs sliding over linoleum. That was last year, luckily no repeats. I don’t fear my dining room yet.
Last month my neck didn’t work. Pulled something while sleeping.
42, I’ve thrown my back out lifting the toilet seat.
36, laundry basket
At 30, dried my hair too hard with a towel. Pulled my neck
36 now. I don’t remember my exact age at the time, but at approximately eighteen I dislocated my shoulder turning over in bed.
My worst mountain biking injury was because I looked down at my back tire and pulled the SHIT out of a muscle in my upper back.
And I used to crash a lot. The muscle pull was worse
I stumbled a few months back stepping over a rope that was about fifteen centimeters off the ground and cracked a rib or something. I didn’t even fall, just kinda leaned forward the wrong way a bit. Pain for weeks.
Something similar happened to my husband! Threw his back out by slipping and not falling on ice 😂
Maybe we should be trying less hard to not hurt ourselves. 😝
Or try harder.
Go full bubble boy.
Every yawn comes with its own risk of dislocating my jaw.
My muscles are over flexible and even taking a big bite can do it. Also makes it easy to put back in place tho.
I’m not the only one!?
Staying in shape has helped prevent most other silly injuries though.
Had a bag at the head of my bed, woke up, still laying down, reached over my head to grab something out of it, went to pull back “down” and tore my rotator cuff. I was 20.
Yep, tore my meniscus in my knee a month ago shifting my weight standing still in my kitchen
I tore mine around age fifteen. I was kneeling in a garden helping a senior lady garden. Felt a weird pop when standing up. Didn’t even realize anything was particularly wrong until my knee stopped supporting me later in the day.
Remember all those injuries you brushed off when you were a kid? They’re baaaack…
And they’re PISSED
Crying in Ehlers-Danlos. I was too bendy for my own good, and now I’m none bendy, left pain. All that is left is pain.
Sneezed on the toilet once with my head turned. Neck was frozen for like a week after that one lol.
Jfc, I’m still dealing with a muscle I pulled turning over in bed. In November of last year.
