Time (and medical attention) Heals All Wounds by Frostbeard

February 14th, 2008 4:23 PM

INSTRUCTIONS: Document a wound* as it heals, spending at least 4 days watching its progress. It can be on you or someone/something else. It must be a physical wound in the form of a bruise, a cut, a scratch, a burn, or something else that takes days to heal. No tiny hangnails unless they are impressively slow to heal and interesting to watch as they heal.

For bonus points, have acquired the wound doing something for SF0.

For extra-super bonus points, use leeches to promote circulation or maggots to eat away any dead flesh.

*Please do not cause this wound intentionally.

So, i feel like the pictures sort of do this justice, and rambling here for too long will just waste time. Yours and mine. Anyway, it pretty much involves me having gotten a job at a coffee shop where bagels are also sold. They just got new knives. I sliced my finger open on one and bled everywhere. Then proceeded to bleed for days. So, there you have it.


I was going to use awesome Knattleikr wounds and make this a N0RD task, but unfortunately i don't really visually bruise much at all. So, just sore muscles from all that. Stupid bagel tasking.

Your comments are a lot of fun to read. Also, it is pretty impressive how much the tip of your finger decided to rip away from the rest. I applaud you for keeping it from jumping ship altogether.

finger.condoms-- are annoying but useful.

Oh, and I almost forgot: fear the robots because they will become us, and then they will rule us, and then we will be like their cats, and...um... Okay, so I don't see much wrong with being a cat, besides the whole hairball issue, which probably isn't all that awful for most cats. So, um, go robots!

Bagels are a major safety hazard. I knew a guy who cut his leg because he was holding a bagel between his knees while slicing.

Vote for giving SF0 the finger for 10 days straight.

Those bagel cutters are serious business and must be treated with respect. But totally worth it. mmm.... bagels...

I hear that if you get the finger from a once wounded finger, you feel that finger in your soul. The scarier the wound the heavier the finger lays on the soul. I think that whoever gets the finger from you from now on will feel it for awhile.

WHAT?! Don Limon, where, by the gods, did you ever hear this? What weird shamanistic backwaters have you been hanging out in?

Rongo Rongo....who the hell cuts bagels that way? No offense to your associate/friend/random person, but he TOTALLY deserved that then. Anyway, stupid bagels.

As for this robot cat thing, there is nothing more satisfying than the idea of having my meals provided to me, sleeping on warm spots warmed by the sun, and generally being able to run around and knock things over without any real repercussions. Oh, and someone cleans up your feces. This sounds ideal to me. Things would have to be different with robot rule. We'd have video games and television and stuff to entertain ourselves rather than fuzzy balls and stuff while the robots did what they want. Actually, it pretty much just sounds like now.

Except that's not how it'll be when the robots rule. We will much less like cats and much more like rats. The robots do not care about our happiness or well being. They understand not these things.

I don't want to eat rat pellets or meow mix.

Is it a VIKING café that you work at?

vote for not being able to post about Knattleikr injuries, but still managing to mess yourself up pretty bad. By the way, did I tell you I had trouble breathing for like 3 days due to your flying knee to my rib? Good times..I feel like we went out with a bang..

Ha ha ha. Your ribs are weak! Soon we shall roast them and eat them! Or...not. Given that you moved. Lame. Anyway, it was a pretty good injury as cafe stuff goes i guess.

And ya, it was a pretty good game.

Robot cuisine? Probably nutritional mush. Or semi-nutritional mush. Like cat food.

I wish it was a viking cafe, but alas, it is not. I explained how viking is pretty much a verb to some co-workers the other day. Um...ya. And someone told me i looked like a pirate, and norse people pillaged and stole stuff and were nautically inclined. So...with that stretch, that's as viking as it gets.

If it sounds odd, it might be because you're not from here. That's standard LAUSD playground folklore. Lincoln, you know what I'm talking about, right?

Interesting. Well, i'll have to use that to my advantage then!
