Stop_HammerTime tells us more.
The truth is actually much dumber than some of you are giving me credit for, and definitely warrants a YDI. I'd bought a few small glass things for my friends from Venice. They were all packaged so they made it off the plane fine. When I got home I put them down and started nailing up posters that I'd got in the museums on my visit. I put the hammer down on a pile of boxes while I went to get more nails, which was dumb, and it fell off onto the ornaments. The novelty postcards were all I had left.

Stop! Hammer time
Damn it, that's the first thing that popped into my head. :-P
I think by saying it was a "hammer related incident," OP is saying that they got hammered and sent out some strange postcards.
I don't get it....

That seems like a spot of bad luck. I still can't help but wonder why all you had left as gifts was postcards of a penis.
Hopefully your friends had as much of a laugh at this story as I did. Sorry, OP! I still don't think you deserved it, though!
Why do your postcards have penii? O_o
Or are they just pictures of statues with overly embellished penii?
#64 No they think they're being clever by using a horribly wrong faux-Latin plural.
that is truly some bad luck. im pretty clumsy myself so I know the feeling.
Damn I actually thought it was penii...
So penii is not the plural of penis? ._.
Still wondering why you got penis postcards but at least you're honest ^^
Anyways, I wasn't trying to be clever, I was just making an (admittedly bad) joke. ;~; That said, it is extremely embarrassing to re-read my comments here.
It's the thought that counts! Your friends will get a good laugh from the story once they know
Actually, the only reason I feel this warrants a YDI is for putting up posters with nails. :)
I still prefer my story.
Actually... Peni/penii is the singular of penis, so peni would be correct.
Nobody wants tacky glass ornaments, but who doesn't love a penis postcard.
That damn Thor and his hammer
Sending those seems like a dick move.
This one was wild from start to finish

I really want to know the story behind this.
I'll play it out for you guys. OP is at home, chilling. Suddenly, wall caves in. Don't ask how, that's disrespectful. Never disrespect a man whose walls have caved in. Anyways, he calls his handyman friend. He comes over to fix that shit, says for free. Little did OP know, free fixes are an invitation for a hammer party. Long story short, all his friends are invited to bring hammers, run around house swinging them. One hits OP's fine china cabinet, one hits his nuts. That's my highly scientific theory, anyway.
