Guest pinnacleofallthingsmanly Posted May 13, 2004 Report Posted May 13, 2004 I FUCKING BROKE THE GODDAMN THING!!! Last night at approx. 7:30, I broke my motherfucking leg while riding a bike. I was going fast as hell and had to make a left turn. I kind of got distracted by a car that was approaching from my right. I tried to lean into the turn because I was going too fast and my pedal caught the ground. I instinctively put my leg down and the son of a bitch broke as I got dragged by the bike. As soon as it stopped I thought, "I just broke my fucking ankle!" Denial set in and I hopped to my feet and picked the bike up and tried to walk it off. Bad idea. I walked all the way back to my house hoping that it was just a sprain or a bruise. I was going to try to wait a couple of hours and try again, but I knew my leg was broken. My roommate took me to the emergency room and I was joking around with the nurses and trying to be optimistic, but my heart hit the floor when the doctor told me that my leg was broken.I have a fractured left tibula or fibula or whatever the fuck it is. The lovely thing is the fact that I don't have any medical insurance of any kind and the job that I basically work full-time at can be kissed goodbye while my leg is broken. I went to work at my other job this morning, but I have a feeling that they aren't goping to want to schedule me while my leg is broken. I may be working at a new job by next week though because I have motherfucking bills to pay. The lack of painkillers isn't going to help me get any sleep either because it didn't last night. I'm a salty n*gga right now.
sfaJack Posted May 13, 2004 Report Posted May 13, 2004 Sorry to hear that man. I broke my leg about 7 years ago. It's no picnic. Good luck with all the rehabbing ahead of you.
Guest pinnacleofallthingsmanly Posted May 13, 2004 Report Posted May 13, 2004 FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I forgot about rehab. FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFfffffffffffffff.
Guest Man Of 1,004 Modes Posted May 13, 2004 Report Posted May 13, 2004 I give this an F because fake injury stories are stupid.
Guest MikeSC Posted May 13, 2004 Report Posted May 13, 2004 FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I forgot about rehab. FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFfffffffffffffff. Did you cry? Because if you did, you'll have to change your SN. -=Mike
Guest pinnacleofallthingsmanly Posted May 13, 2004 Report Posted May 13, 2004 I was very macho about it.
Guest MikeSC Posted May 13, 2004 Report Posted May 13, 2004 I was very macho about it. Atta boy. Just limped gingerly and said "I'm fine"? You do your SN proud. -=Mike

Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted May 14, 2004 Report Posted May 14, 2004 My long bones are indestructable. I've gotten in car wrecks, fell off of roofs, trees, trampolines, bikes, out of the beds of trucks, down hills, ran into fences, been hit with baseball bats, the list goes on, but the only thing I've ever broken are a few fingers and my nose. Numerous, Numerous times.
nl5xsk1 Posted May 14, 2004 Report Posted May 14, 2004 Is this a bike as in a motorcycle, or a bike as in a pedal pusher? nl5: thinks riding bikes is not that manly.
Ripper Posted May 14, 2004 Report Posted May 14, 2004 I've never broken anything but my neck. Ripper- More in common with Chris Beniot than JOO~! since 1996
Guest Salacious Crumb Posted May 14, 2004 Report Posted May 14, 2004 Well at least it wasn't your achilles tendon. That takes a solid 6 months to get over.
Ripper Posted May 14, 2004 Report Posted May 14, 2004 Well at least it wasn't your achilles tendon. That takes a solid 6 months to get over. Six months? What did you do...hit it really hard? A tear takes a hell of a lot longer than six months. A sprained ankle can take longer than that.
Guest Salacious Crumb Posted May 14, 2004 Report Posted May 14, 2004 I don't even remember what exactly I did to it, but it was on the verge of tearing for awhile. Honestly I was down so long I can't even remember exactly the time frame for everything. I probably hurt it in October and am just now starting to be able to kind of run again.
Ripper Posted May 14, 2004 Report Posted May 14, 2004 Yeah, I had a severly strained achilles and that took about year for me to feel like I was starting to get better.
Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted May 14, 2004 Report Posted May 14, 2004 The only real injury I've ever sustained that actually messed me up for any length of time was what was very definitely a concussion that went completely untreated and undiagnosed.

A tear takes a hell of a lot longer than six months. A sprained ankle can take longer than that. SIX MONTHS? Six months to get over a little torn achilles tendon? Heck, I slashed my feet off in a tragic mower accident --- three Band-Aids later and that yard was finished man. Yeah, I'm only 5'4 now --- but that yard was green as heck. Well, except for the big-ass blood stain. The only real injury I've ever sustained that actually messed me up for any length of time was what was very definitely a concussion that went completely untreated and undiagnosed. Concussions suck hard --- but they serve as dandy excuses when you tank, say, a high-level history final and you want the professor to cut you a break. ....Not that I'd do that. -=Mike
Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted May 14, 2004 Report Posted May 14, 2004 It hampered my drinking for at least 2 weekends.
Guest MikeSC Posted May 14, 2004 Report Posted May 14, 2004 It hampered my drinking for at least 2 weekends. Ah, heck, shoulda drank more. Gives you a major buzz. Alcohol + already quite scrambled brain cells = BOO YAH -=Mike
Guest Salacious Crumb Posted May 14, 2004 Report Posted May 14, 2004 My was loads of fun combining the achilles tendon with my two bad knees. Getting up and down stairs was a fun little adventure for awhile.
Guest MikeSC Posted May 14, 2004 Report Posted May 14, 2004 My was loads of fun combining the achilles tendon with my two bad knees. Getting up and down stairs was a fun little adventure for awhile. Learn to walk on your hands. It'd wow the ladies. -=Mike

Red Hot Thumbtack In The Eye Posted May 14, 2004 Report Posted May 14, 2004 In 2000 I had a wipe out at work and broke my ankle. I took a half day as a favour to my boss. One more workers comp case and the place was likely to get shut down. I just taped that shit like a mofo and carved myself a cane. As far as the neatest sensation of an injury, that has to go to the time I ruptured my kidney. It was a literal pop.

Heck, I broke my nose in the morning at one job and, after getting the nice cut on the outside stitched up, didn't miss a minute. -=Mike
Ripper Posted May 14, 2004 Report Posted May 14, 2004 I don't get what people are saying when they say they broke their ankle? Isn't that like breaking your knee?

Numerous, Numerous times. Knock on wood because this is the first time I've broken a bone and this is the wackest shit I've ever encountered.

Guest pinnacleofallthingsmanly Posted May 14, 2004 Report Posted May 14, 2004 Yeah, I had a severly strained achilles and that took about year for me to feel like I was starting to get better. What did you do to rehab it?
Guest MikeSC Posted May 15, 2004 Report Posted May 15, 2004 I don't get what people are saying when they say they broke their ankle? Isn't that like breaking your knee? I always assumed it meant breaking one of the bones in your ankle. My memory of anatomy is fleeting, but I seem to remember the ankle consisting of several bones. -=Mike
