<< What do you say/do when in pain? >>



When I got my wisdom teeth pulled, I didn't say much, I just kind of curled up on my bed shuddering.

Hehe, it depends on the level of pain. If its hurst pretty badly, but is manageable, I just curse a lot and do my "gdtfh" dance. If it is extreme pain, I usually take it out on whoever else is around that isn't hurt ;). I am the proud owner of the only video tape ever ordered destroyed by my old hs ;). The opinions that I expressed during the 4 minutes that a physician came onto the basketball court to examine and stabilize my leg were "an embarassment to the athletics program and the school in general". Hehe, that was 12 years ago yesterday that that happened, and I still flush every time I see that doctor when I go back home to visit with family...

Depends on the severity of pain. If it realy hurts, I usually say some things I shouldn't. :eek:

Other times, I just lay there and wimper.

Yesterday, I was out sledding, and I got a push down the hill. Unfortualtely, that push was accompanied by an accidental kick to my knee by way of a heavy duty boot. I howled the entire way down the hill.

More interesting than what I say is what a friend's mother says:
"Sh*t, f*ck, p*ss, stick a finger up a cat's @ss!"

For moderately bad sharp pain (like when I got my finger caught in the hinge of the storm door), usually I'll say something along the lines of, "Jesus motherf*cking sh*t" but I've been known to be even fouler when the pain's really bad. On the other hand, when I ripped my big toenail off accidentally, I was speechless with pain and pretty much just grunted and whimpered while tears ran down my face and I curled up in a fetal position.

If it's something like stubbing my toe or jamming a finger, I'll forgo the cursing and just hold my breath and do a sort of "Mmmmmmmmmphhhh" as I dance around shaking it off.

LMAO....

If I knock my toe on something when I go for a piss at night it usually ends up being "Motherf*cking son of a b*tch"... then I realize my parents are sleeping in the next room so I shut up and take the pain in silence.

I may just say "crap" silently, or if it hurts a lot I may say that word which glen got banned for posting.

<< There is a way to defeat the language filter, and more than a few have been banned for passing on the knowledge. :frown:

Even more have been banned for implementing it.
>>

I've implemented it, but I got an email from the mods, (or did I get banned and then shortly unbanned? I forget). It's really easy to defeat. But, I'm not gonna say. :D

I like to stick with the classics, myself. "Ouch" or "OW!" usually work, but "damn that hurts!" is also good when a one word answer isn't enough.
