Life's misfortunes

[Agent Proto]

Probably not a real misfortune, but I was unfortunate enough to have bit my own tongue today while eating. It was pretty painful and annoying to deal with, especially now that my tongue is swollen where it was bit into. Have you gone through anything similar or just as unfortunate?

Please share!

Had another gout flareup in the last couple of days. Pain wise, it wasn't that bad, but the joint still stiffened up pretty badly. Seems to finally be going away for real today. Glad I had leftover drugs from last time I had it!

Landing on the "Oh no! Fired!" space when you have the 100k salary, and getting the 20k salary instead.

when have i felt your dark breath
all the horrors of your fingers
take from me what i never owned and i will
fight to get my powders back from your jaws
clench harder than i remember your
hair wreathes in between my teeth and
now we can't stop here anymore i haven't the
slightest clue of where to go with your veins


EDIT: WAY TO FRIGGIN ABANDON ME HERE BALLOON

I murdered my little baby toe two days ago. I'm so sad about it. Stupid chair! Don't you know to get out of my way when I've been drinking??

I spent an hour walking/running into town to catch the bus and I was about 10 metres away when the bus decided to just leave.

Inventing your own combat sport when you're drunk called 'Sock Wars'. Then convincing three of your friends to take part in the first official Sock Wars Tournament... then realizing that all of your friends are much better at it than you are.

I suppose being English I should have expected to be crap at my own sport.

Reading that with a little bit of sleep deprivation, I skipped a certain word because the word right next to it looked the same. After reading the rest of the post, I was very confused until I re-read it and realized you were talking about your toe.

Alcohol consumption is a prerequisite.

Two men square up against each other holding a beer-soaked sock each. The game needs a short hallway with a doorway at either end. In the 'Hallway of Combat' the men attempt to strike each other with the before-mentioned socks.

A hit to the body is worth one point with a head shot worth two. If a man is behind his 'Doorway of Safety' when hit then no points are scored. First to ten.

I approached the Olympic committee about adopting it as a sport for London 2012. They still insist on that fencing crap though.

I went to a thai restaurant and ordered egg rolls with my dinner but they gave me spring rolls instead and they are just going to go to waste because spring rolls are the worst.

I just wanted my deep fried fatty fat fat egg rolls :(

My life's made of misfortunes; even though I purposely avoid three grids. For me it's always the little things; there's never any of my milk left when I want a brew (note: my milk, which I haven't drank), never any Dr Pepper bottles left at work, I'm always tripping up, walking into things, knocking things over, spilling food all down myself. etc etc. It was only yesterday when I was on the bus to meet an ex, an already stressful ordeal, and I spilled near enough an entire bottle of Coke (note: they were out of Dr Pepper as standard) in my lap. I somehow managed to change tops discretely, whilst still on the bus too. A few days before that my friend dragged me with her to the doctors after I'd literally just finished work and wanted food, it "won't take long", nearly 40 minutes later I'm sat in the waiting room regretting my choice of quavers (way too noisy to eat in a silent waiting room!). It was also on the way to the doctors that I tripped myself up and scraped my arm on a wall. Little things like this happen to me daily, but I just laugh. I've been known to drop DVDs everywhere at work, and I once dropped half of a footlong Subway on the floor on the staffroom because it fell off my lap

I am never, ever going to get to makeout with young Bruce Willis. All of you people have nothing on me. Not a damn thing.

I hit a pot hole and somehow managed to bend my tie rode in my car :mad2:

[G13]

White people problems.

[Jiro]

Pot holes are everybody's problem. Especially if they're due to mines.

[Criminally Vulgar]

in a way life is one big pot hole and it is our job to fill it up with cement.

White people problems.

Well I guess none of this crap applies to me. /smug

My laptop's battery is dying but the charger is all the way upstairs.

:crying2:

I was way too tired when I came into work and decided to have an extra strength 5 hour energy. Now it feels like my heart is going to leap out of my chest and make some fried potatoes.

I left my phone in my room when I went to the bathroom and I was BORED THE WHOLE TIME I HAD TO POOP :crying2:

People were driving slow on the goddamn highway.

[~*~Celes~*~]

we were driving home last night and it had been pouring the whole ride home...we were on the expressway going 50 mph and were going around a curve, suddenly a HUGE ASS PUDDLE jumped out of nowhere causing us to hit it, spin sideways, and smack headfirst (At a slight angle) into a cement wall. I bit my tongue and he yelled out an obscenity. Had to go to the hospital afterwards to make sure Peter is okay. I now have a very tender spot on my abdomen where the seatbelt was :(

Wow. Glad it wasn't too serious and you're both OK.
