    Default Invici-toe!

    I'm moving my room around. Well not the room itself, but the furniture in the room. All just in time to leave for Christmas break so that by the time I return, the layout will still be fresh, new and still way anti-feng shui.

    So I lifted my bookshelf from under my bed (my thirty pound hard wood bookshelf) paying no heed to the slippery dust thinly coating the shelf. It slipped. AND LANDED RIGHT ON MY TOE.

    Everything was in slow-mo. I feared the worst. I feared emergency room visits for vicodin, blood and toenails flying through the air. I feared my goddamn toe would fall off. (IN JOKE) I feared for my very life if the people downstairs decided they'd had enough of the crazy bitch on the fourth floor was being TOO LOUD DURING FINALS.

    The shelf landed true, right on my second toe. It cracked my steel toe-ring right in two and slammed against my big toe. THIS WAS IT...

    ... but there was no pain. Maybe it had landed so hard the pressure instantly vaporized my toe, cauterizing the wound in the process. Maybe I'd died of shock at losing a toe. I opened my squinted eyes to inspect the damage.

    My toes were fine. The big one had a little red mark on it, but it was still there. I couldn't believe my eyes!

    As my heartbeat returned to normal, I thought about my situation pragmatically. What had just happened to me? Could it be ... my toe is invincible?

    I promise to use this power only for good. And for drunk-bets.

    Have you ever experienced an accident that should've hurt you, made you cry or killed you and come out virtually unscathed?

    Signature by rubah. I think.

    That sounds really painful.. except it wasn't

    Anyway, I once split my little toe open because I smashed it into a rock. There was blood everywhere, and you could literally see the bone.. BUT, it didn't hurt. In fact me and my friends, who where there when it happened, just laughed at it because it was so darn ironic; the next day was my first day of High School, and even though it didn't hurt I had to walk on crutches because my balance was off, and my toe was wrapped in so much gauze bandage that it was the size of a tennis ball.. The first impression the next day wasn't as good as I had liked it to be, but I guess it was sort of a fun experience (thanks to adrenaline!)

    when I was much younger, around 6-8 I was cutting a lemon and the knife proceeded to go through my hand, how did it not hurt. Though I quite enjoyed the horrified look on my babysitters face.

    Hit a street lamp on my bike, flew over the handles, should hit the street lamp and I spun around and landed on the ground. Got up, picked my bike up and rode off into the sunset.

    I gashed my left knee open on a jagged rock, during a paddle in a freshwater burn (small stream in Scotland). It didn't even hurt, until I looked at it. I thought it may need stitches, but it just scabbed over; the scab ran pretty deep, though.

    I got off easy; on the same trip, another girl Carly got concussed after slipping down some rocks near a waterfall, and one boy called Danny nearly drowned. Actually, no. I fell off a horse two days earlier, but I got straight back on.

    Well it didn't happen to me, but when my brother was like two years old, he fell out of a 3rd story window and landed on the little patch of grass next to the sidewalk and he barely had any scratches on him. He landed there and played in the grass until my mom came screaming and hysterical down the stairs to get him.

    Also, a few weeks ago, I woke up and my right big toe was BLACK. Like, something had happened so that there was a pool of blood congealing under the toe. It's still there. and it's been like a month. It doesn't hurt, and I don't know how it happened, but it's pretty nasty and gross and I wish it would go away.

    I was biking down a hill when a car backed out out of nowhere. I braked instantly causing my body to flip over the handlebars. I landed on my back on that persons car slid off the rear end onto my head, then neck then I rolled onto my side. Stood up and dusted myself off. nothing. No blood or anything. I knew that should have hurt i kNEW it should have hurt but nothing.

    I also seem to be pretty super human. I was at seven eleven and this guy with a knife came in to rob the place. I was at the counter and he wanted to use me kinda sorta as a hostage. So he comes over and Im like freaking out. I flinch going down and close my eyes. He goes for a stab, I slap his hand, he tries two more times and I block again. He goes again and I grab it. I open my eyes finally and am like "WTF" So I'm holding his fist when some chick comes up with a 2liter coke and smashes it across his head. It explodes and the guy drops the knife. I grabbed my crap and ran.

    Yeah super reflexes and invincibility. I'm obviously meant to save the world one day.

    One time I was hanging from my bunk bed, classic style. I slipped through the space between the railing of the top bunk, so I was inbetween the wood carrying the mattress and the railing. Everything fit through, except for my big ass head. :3 I stayed there for about 20 minutes, methinks. I managed to gain footing on the bottom bunk a few times, but I had to lean my feet in to do that.

    Kinda silly experience for a 6 year old. :3

    My brother said that when my 12-year maulers came in, it would hurt like hell. It didn't.

    Once I got my foot ran over by a van yet I suffered no pain. That was when I was really young though (around 7).
