[allisolm]

"I managed to rip my Gluteus Maximus to shreds in a moment of over-enthusiastic gardening,"

What kind of gardening accident, over-enthusiastic or not, could result in ripping one's gluteus maximus to shreds?

I can't...

I don't even...

Really? Use the garden weasel, set it down. Bend down to pluck a weed, it resists, tug harder, it lets go, boom. Seriously, have you ever used one of the things? Does a really good job, lots of sharp blades pointing in every direction and it would only take a very small accident to shred a foot, a leg or a glute.

Wow, ouch!

If you aren't on your knees gardening, you are pretty much in the squat position the entire time unless you want to blow out your back. He's old and probably out of shape, and was in the squat position too long and tore his glute.

Yeah, Brian May has to be in his 70's. Very easy to do at that age.

Mama, ooh,
It hurts, I want to cry,
If my butt is broken this time tomorrow,
Carry on, carry on as if nothing really matters.

Too late, my time has come,
Sends shivers down my spine,
Butt is aching all the time.
Goodbye, everybody, I've got to go,
Gotta rest my behind and face the truth.

Nah, very few people would stick a Garden Weasel up their ass just for kicks. If somebody winds up gluteally impaled on one 99.7% sure it's an accident.

Seems like slipping in the garden usually results in a zucchini stuck in the nether regions.
