Today, I cut my finger open with a spoon. After waiting for 4 hours in the emergency room, the doctor told me I was missing too much flesh to qualify for stitches. He then called 2 other doctors in to examine it. Apparently they had a contest for patient with most ridiculous injury. I won. FML

Wow... that takes skill, my friend. That, or you've got some dangerous ******* spoons in your kitchen. At least you discovered that before it got to your mouth, right?

That's exactly what I was thinking! When I read the first sentence I thought, "and that's not the fml?" Op, posting it on the internet probably wasn't the best way to reduce your humiliation...

LoL My best friend is a ER surgeon and they compete for weirdest patient all the time. She's told me some crazy stories. They do it to make the days more bearable (they see some pretty horrible stuff in the ER).

Hey, working the ER is crap :) You get people coming in everyday wanting miracle medicine for the flu or the cold, hard to work with patients, and the like. This is the only way you get to keep your sanity :)

How do you cut your finger with a spoon, all I can think of is a grapefruit spoon because it has serrations.

sorry bout your injury, but this is, after all, why bandaids were born. or butterfly closures, if you're feeling dramatic.

I broke my wrist once when I put my rollerblades on and fell while getting up to get my wrist guards. I have nerve damage in my foot from kicking a car tire. I also had a finger gash - this being from when one of my pet triggerfish took about a 1/2" gouge of skin out of my fingertip while I was cleaning its tank. Seriously, sh*t happens. These crazy things keep doctors' days jovial.

Exactly. They see some horrible stuff in the ER. I mean horrible. Its the funny cases that kind of balance it out. A buddy of mine in college chopped a piece of his finger off with a deli slicer at work. He was tehrefore known as Gnubby. He definitely had a sense of humor about it.

Dammit! You got there first. I got attacked by a pair of humuhumus once. I was out snorkeling at Hanauma, and this huge trigger just darted at my mask, got within 3 inches of me, and sharply turned. It started swimming around me and another had followed as was doing the same thing. All was fine and dandy until a wave rolled over me, knocking me off balance and I almost hit one. Their spines came up, and they started charging me and retreating repeatedly. It was the trippiest thing ever. It was like they thought they were sharks. It was so cute.!
