I'm a cripple now!

Okay, not really.

But I did like... burn my hand something fierce saving some orphans from a fire at an orphanage. Of course, I burned my GOOD HAND... u_u;; It's not really that bad, just a few really bad 2nd degree burns on my left palm. I would just have put band-aids on them, but they wouldn't stick because I use my hands for like... everything, and it's in a really awkward spot.

So, it's covered in gauze now... XD No one noticed I burned my hand until I used the gauze, which is both a good and a bad thing.

Unfortunately, people keep trying to high-five me.

I like how you completely glossed over this and instead opted to tell us about the burnt hand. :P

Uh, I'm asking you to elaborate on this, if it wasn't clear. ;)

DW

Pfft, saving orphans, big deal, I do it twice a week.

Exactly. Besides, if anyone really cared about orphans, they wouldn't be orphans, now would they?

...Oh, and I didn't actually save the orphans. I just burnt my hand because I'm an idiot. u__u And I take things far to seriously.

What actually happened: My parents said that they would kill me if I got hot glue on the floor. The glue gun was on, and it oozed out some hot glue. Not wanting to be killed, I reached out and caught it in some crazy slow-motion like way.

If such is true, your parents have some serious problems... Oh wait, we already know that.

Hmm...

Fishalicious

They wouldn't actually kill me, JQ. ^^;

I suppose burning your hand would outweigh being killed in a logical balance.

My sympathies go out to you and your hand.

Maybe you can get an Automail hand now.  Wouldn't that be cool?

Fishalicious

I would totally get automail if it weren't for the fact that... I enjoy having my left hand too much.

It's great, though, I can sell things for my various school clubs so much easier now-- "I need money for a new hand/hand surgery. Please buy some chocolate/a shirt for a dollar/ 12 USD... ;___;"

Keaton

Wait, so... do you have a problem with 'cripples'?

MagmarFire

I wouldn't say that in particular. I guess it was just a simple way of vaguely saying that she has an injury.

Anyway, Fisk, I also give you condolences about your hand. I hope it heals soon...favorably before February. >.>



Advanceshipping and Rion had better be Chuck Norris approved.

Fishalicious

I have nothing against cripples.

I was just saying, being unable to use my dominant hand, i.e., my left, is almost like being crippled for me. I live for art, and so an artist with a bad hand... u_u I can't bend my palm without feeling pain, and I don't know about you, but I bend my palm when I hold my pencils...

Gamefreak

You could just move your entire arm, eliminating that tedious palm bending.

Keaton

Aye, it's true.  It's also an excellent way to prevent carpal tunnel syndrome. :D

Fishalicious

...Try holding a pencil without bending your hand. >_> I probably said it wrong, but it's like... in the middle of my hand more than the palm. When you bend your fingers over, it's right near the joint.

Oh, and when I went to clean my bandage, my uncle came in with some gashes on his foot... they bled like crazy! I feel like such a good doctur, I went and cleaned the foot, got the obstructions out of said wound, wrapped it up and... yeah, it's better now.

darkphantomime

How the devil did that happen?
