so yesterday I'm playing an American football game called "Smear the Queer," in which one person holds onto the ball and everyone else tries to tackle said person. Upon tackling the person throws the ball up, someone else picks it up, and it repeats. Pretty fun, actually.

Anyway we were playing and midway through the game I got tackled and someone landed on my left hand. Needless to say, it bent the wrong way. Now my wrist is sprained.

I can't put any pressure on it and any kind of bending hurts like crazy. No, it's not broken (no bruising, etc.) but it hurts really really bad. Even typing hurts (makes me wonder how well the job thing will go ).

But oh well, I'll suck it up and get over it. Any as-of-late, interesting injury stories from anyone else?

I fell of my bike on my way to school today, and my shoulder got somewhat dislocated for a couple hours. Interesting enough?

I was practicing frontflips a few weeks ago in a university in Dublin, and a Spanish tourist group were stopped watching me, and with them all cheering me and clapping, needless to say I got a little over-confident I managed to land a few perfectly, but as I was going for (what would be) my last one, someone shouted something, I got distracted, I under-rotated, and landed on my heel. I was barely able to walk for a week, I was limping for another, and now it's a little better but still not perfect

It was worth it

Vyper. GREAT GAME. Unfortunatley, it just got banned from my school along with wall ball ... I could play it with neighbor hood kids but A) they're dicks B) I'd crush them so it's not worth trying. I could actuallygo for a good game of tackle football right now .

I fell out of my partner's bed last week and bruised my arse. Not some little bruise either, a huge purple one. It's much better now, but last week it hurt to sit sometimes.

I got a huge scar on the back of my right leg because a stick scratched me. It didn't even bleed...

I have a burn mark on my right hand because a friend of my rubbed on eraser on it.

I got shampoo in my eye, which then caused me to get shampoo in my nose, and finally, some in the mouth. 3-hit combo.

I once sprained/twisted my ankle from stepping on an aluminum can.

I tried clearing a three- to four-foot metallic fence, only to fail and land the "manly" way.

I horribly missed a pass in football the other day. The ball smacked me square in the face.

I also threw a football straight down when I was young. It bounced back up, and, once again, hit me in the face.

In addition to that, I threw a basketball straight up at an open garage door. It came back down and hit me in the face.

I fell off of my bed when I was small, and crashed into the nightstand. I got a small cut between my nostrils.

If I lived in the Calvin and Hobbes world, I'd have probably built more character than Calvin.

Recently I was returning an empty shopping cart, running for no real reason. I took a corner too fast and wiped out. Tore up my hands, knees and pants pretty good, there's still a spot on my hand that hasn't healed yet.

I have some tenderness on my forearms from getting punched there alot and the skin on my hands are like leather from all the callousing. My most recent injury was the dislocation of a bone in my forearm which was tehn cracked back into place. Amazingly, it didn't hurt after that one painful push.

My most painful injury was the time I ran my neck into a metal clothesline. I had the air knocked out of me, a horrible pain in my throat that lasted for weeks and I couldn't talk. There was an imprint of the wire which became all purple after putting ice on it.

Yea, in circles where hating on groups is not widely accepted, they call the game "Kill the Carrier".

'The word queer has traditionally meant "strange" or "unusual"' - Wikipedia, first line...

Doesn't seem like he's hating any groups here... I mean, the guy with the ball is unusual because he has the ball, right?

we've always called it "kill the man with the ball"

I like smear the queer better.

I know, I just felt like rufflin' feathers. But how many people(kids) do you know that use the word in that manner. 's all I'm saying.

Major injuries... hmm. lessee.

I fell off my scooter while going 45 kph down a hill. While wearing short, a tshirt, and no protective gear.

Needless to say, I lost half the hair on my legs, scarred my knee and my stomach, and couldn't walk properly for a week and a half.

I sprained my ankle when I was younger, by slipping on gravel...

I bruised my elbow a few months ago by slipping on ice, on the one slippery spot left on the cement. Everything was melted, except for that one spot.

Oh I hate it when people do that. Quoting the dictionary is bollocks when people know damned well what it means in the popular sense.

Unless you imagine a big group of strong men bunding a single guy to look like a rush to bone someone. "Bone the Queer" sounds much more apt to me

I had to use the bathroom for a few hours at work. Finally, when I got to, the dump was HUGE. I ended up with new hemroids due to the poop pressure.

When I was little(2 or 3) I wrapped myself in a blanket and went rollin' down the stairs. Had to get stitches on my forehead which have left a very visible scar.

When I was 12 or 13 I was runnin' UP the stairs, slipped and had my teeth go straight into my lower lip which left two bloody gaping holes in it. They almost went through to the other side.

When I was like 14 someone fractured my pinky and I didn't realize until I showed my mom how mangled and discolored it was. First I had that uncomfortable wrap around it for like 2 weeks. Then I got this badass awesome claw which made me look like a deinonychus. But then in the final weeks I had to just wear tape on my two fingers. Lame.

When I was 17, it was icy out and I ran to catch a passing bus but slipped and totally carved out the palm of my hand. That hurt a lot.

BEST. POST. EVER.

I have a scar from stitches underneath my left eyebrow because, as a 3 year old kid, I was an idiot and decided I could jump over this big coffee table. I tripped during the launch and hit the thing full force.

I think this might win the most severe injury so far, although if anyone comes in with anything broken then they'd beat me for sure. I was playing football with some friends one summer afternoon. I caught a deep pass, got wrapped up by this army kid I know, and then BLASTED from behind by an ex-rugby player friend of mine. I remember getting hit and falling. The next thing I remember is the ball being loose, and me trying to scoop it in thinking I had let it pop out during the fall, except for some reason my arms wouldn't work properly - I could move them towards the ball but not with any sort of coordination. Then I saw the grass up against me and realized that 1. I had slight retrograde and anterograde amnesia, and 2. This amnesia was due to a concussion I just had. I was oddly OK with this while on the ground; I was messed up so that I just took it like a matter of fact, like someone might go "Oh, I bruised my knee a couple days ago." Then I stood up and I felt it, and that's when it sunk in... "Fuck, I just had a fucking concussion. Fuck!"

I didn't need to go to the hospital, as I was able to drive home fine, but the next few days I kept forgetting shit. The very next day I COMPLETELY forgot where I parked at the mall and spent like 20 minutes finding my car.

The name of the game originates from a time before the word "Queer" meant anything spiteful.
