    omyatari youre unsuccesful at plotting a rampage? Thats not good. Pee on some biscuits and then offer them round.
    Or maybe organise some office olympics. You know partition jumping, the mouse throw, chair swimming. Then beat up all the loosers.

    you missus, are a legend.

    *hurries to Spar on the corner to get biscuits*

    and for Chin... ha! /gloat

    Awesome..mutant heros..

    Not so much an injury - more like a hideous embarrassment.....

    I once had this long skirt I used to wear to work... It got caught in one of the wheels of my chair. Tried to pull it out, but too much caught in wheel. Heard ripping and stopped.

    Cue an army of people trying to detach me from said chair with rulers, pens, knives etc.. In the end, the maintenance man cut the wheel off the chair and managed to prise it open.

    Skirt ripped, red face, standing at desk waiting on a new chair for 15 mins.

    Aah yes - good times.:)

    ripped the back of my linen trousers on the way out to lunch one day..was only when i got outside that it felt very "breezy"...had to laugh once i got over the embarrassement :D

    Opened huge old safe where i keep backup tapes, holding door of safe in my right hand. Sadly misjudged distance to adjacent desk, slamming my ring finger between the two.
    Cue hugely throbbing finger for several days, at the end needed anti inflamatorys and antibiotics...ouch


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,995 ✭✭✭Sofiztikated


    Staple in the finger, paper cut on the webbing of my finger/thumb(repeated) and ended up in hospital with torn cartilage in my knee. Well, that kinda happened the night before (some scumbag took a dislike to me busting a move on the dancefloor), but i went to work, and ended up locking my leg straight, and cue 2 hours in casualty, painkillers and antiinflamitories. Not a hugely interesting story, but mildly amusing trying to fit into a car with my leg dead straight.

    I got entangled in a ring binder somehow :(

    Lol! I wish!

    Yeah. Got a repetitive strain injury. Turns out I'd been using the mouse all wrong for years. Physio got a certain masochistic pleasure from inflicting great pain on me whilst fixing said RSI.

    Had someone spill hot coffee all over my back. It wouldn't be too bad if it was tea because coffee smells rank. Also stapled my finger a few times.

    Yes. Yes i did.
    My coolness was not high enough, and his cloak of scumbagness had +10 drugs and +5 possibility of getting stabbed.
    I was thinking of going down to his "turf" and "throwing down" against his "crew" but I'm worried they might not know what I'm talking about, and kick living ****e outta me.
