Today, I sliced a deep gash into my thumb while carving up bagels. After putting a plaster on, I returned to my room to relax, where I lit a candle. The flame from my new lighter shot up, and set fire to the plaster on my thumb. Now I have a cut AND several burns. FML

We didn't copy your language. You guys brought it with you when you colonized this country. Plaster as we know it is a chemical compound meant to seal holes in walls and such so it can be painted over. I would hope you guys don't put shit like that on your cuts. It can't be good putting whatever the hell is in that stuff in your blood stream.

Because it's a top brand name for covering wounds. That's why.

You crazy Brits and your using different words for stuff. So if you put plaster on cuts what do you use on walls? Bacitracin?

Well why do you crazy Americans call it a "band-aid"? It sounds like a charity event.

The World Wide Web was invented by an English physicist. Just saying. I'm not American nor British though.

The Internet (TCP/IP) was created at Stanford. The World Wide Web was developed by CERN. At least according to Wikipedia, anyway.

The internet was invented by a British Academic, not an American.

This is a repsonse to every1 above me about the internet. the internet was developed by the military, for the military and boomed into what it is today - not by CERN. Just because you read it on Wikipedia, doesn't make it right. ****! Also, what correlation does a physicist and the world wide web, have in common.. it just doesn't make sense! internet != physics. (!= means; does not equal, for those less informed)

Actually the internet WAS invented at CERN. A British guy wanted to make it easier for all the scientists there to share their ideas/work/discoveries so created a network that would allow them to do so (the beginning of the internet!) However, it was then used for military purposes so further developed and speeded up by the military, into what we know it as today. Trust me, I've been to CERN and they have a whole section about the development of the internet in one of their exhibitions.

A gash means deep... And you can't even get a gash on your thumb. What is it, quarter inch at most to the bone? Unless you have some freakish balloons for thumbs you are a bloody pansy.

Actually, you can get a deep gash on your thumb. I did with a bread knife and it cut so deep I could see the bone and my nerve.

Be sure not to suffocate yourself with your pillows tonight...And in the morning(if you make it to the morning that is..)Make sure that when you shower,you don't drown...I'm not sure how,but I wouldn't put it past you...Posting an FML because you burnt your hand and got a cut...You should try working construction,you'd be on here everyday crying,if you hadn't quit after you got a boo-boo that is...
