Today, a calf kicked a needle straight into my arm hard enough to make me stab myself. The good news is I'm now fully vaccinated for cow diseases. FML

ihatecoldfeet tells us more.

hey op here, wow the things city people don't understand! First off, each and every calf must be vaccinated or they could become Ill.Second I wasn't in front of the calf, the person holding the calf let go of it unexpectedly

First it's the vaccine, then you'll have the urge to eat grass. Then the transformation begins

Jenny McCarthy could use one of those shots.

Just did that yesterday. Got my B12 shot trying to wrangle a feisty calf! Those little buggers are hard to hang on to!

when I first read this I thought you said "Those little burgers are hard to hang on to!" ???

why is then word "news" missing its "s" in the fml?

At least things didn't end up shitty. I'm just getting your goat. I'm a little cocky. I won't milk it any more. I'm getting a little horse.

Plz tell me it wasn't micotil or draxxin.. Or even 8way

(bakes cookies for all of us city people that understood)

But most city people understand that you should avoid injecting yourself with cow vaccine ;)

For those who didn't understand: OP got a shot in the arm, not a shot in the calf.

I feel your pain, OP! I've had every wormer and antibiotic under the sun sprayed in my eyes from a faulty needle/syringe. I have yet to stab myself, though. That sounds horrible. Wasn't there any sort of stanchion/head catch that you could hold the cow in?

We always run ours through a chute, it helps a lot.

Wasn't there a chute or something that the cow was in. Your working conditions are worse than mine and I just work for my school at our cow field.

Some city people are idiots. Actually most are lol. Im from the city but even i understand a good deal about the goings on with farm life and I have never even lived on one. its called educating yourself. sorry you got injected. dont go turning into a cow now ;)

^ "im not liek those other dum city ppl, I unserdant farm life, hope tat aminal shot doznt turn u into 1 haha" ... >.>

I've sliced my finger open a few times, castrating lol

That sucks. I took a hoof to the jaw the other day banding lambs when the person holding the legs decided that it was being good and would be ok to let go and it nailed me right off.

Protected from cow diseases but at risk of bovine autism. Pros and cons ;)

Exactly how are they at risk from 'bovine autism'?

#56 I think the joke is that "vaccinations cause Autism." so since OP got the shot instead he is at a risk of cow Autism. Still not funny.

I'm a city girl and I completely understood this Common sense, people You get vaccinated, You take your pets to get vaccinated, obviously farms animals can get vaccinations too

I dunno if cowgirl would be as cool as spider girl but here's hoping you at least get super powers. livestock are jerks fyl

This same thing happened to me.. It was an automatic needle gun and because I work for a high school ag department I had to go have blood tests and fill out about 50 pages worth of paperwork. Good news is I'm vaccinated again bovine aids.
