I bet that one was new at the ER.

My husband tore the meniscus in one of his knees while watching Family Guy with me.

One of my sisters once got a bad ankle sprain falling off a pair of clogs.

What’s a partial?

Partial denture(s). Explosion knocked out a bunch of teeth.

In college I lived in a large suite with seven other girls, most of whom I knew previously. One that I didn’t know was a nice young woman named Erica. SHe was one of those people who was fearless, and liked to try as many different things as she could. One weekend night she was hanging out with some skater friends around campus. They were all practicing skating on this round rail that encircled a fountain. She decided that it didn’t look so hard, and asked to try…

When she fell, she somehow ended up straddling the rail. There was lots of blood, and she ended up having to get lots of stitches. I could never bring myself to ask specifically where, and the only answer she offered up was “in the crotch area…”

I’m recovering from a rotator cuff tear - from filing.

my ‘more to the story’ sense is tingling

My sister broke her finger falling off the toilet.

Sadly, that’s pretty much it. We were sitting on the couch watching Family Guy, he had his feet up on the steamer trunk that we used as a coffee table at the time, and he shifted as if to cross his legs and his knee locked up. He ended up having surgery a couple of days later, on Christmas Eve.

I know someone who sliced one of her labia majora in half because she managed to fall split-legged on the edge of a stage. The injury was never properly treated, so it never healed properly, and now she has three labia.

My bro got stitches in his tongue.

My older sister (maybe 8 y/o at the time) liked to jump off her dresser onto the bed. My bro (3-4 y/o I guess) wanted to piggy back and latched on at the last moment. Houston, we have a problem. That of course threw off the trajectory. He hit his chin on his knee and bit his tongue so hard that it needed stitches.

OTOH having a “spider” on his tongue made him the coolest kid on the block. :smiley:
