Know what's as bad as having your balls slammed in a door?

Postby Oliver Dale » Wed Jan 24, 2007 4:05 pm

... Well, nothing ....

But know what's close?

Having to pack up and move your apartment on short notice.

How has your week been going?

Breaking your fibula and tibia in half hurts more than getting kicked in the balls. I promise you that.

ah, but does it hurt more than getting your balls slammed in a door? these are the key questions.


hang in there, Ollie. exciting days are ahead.
you snooze, you lose
well I have snozzed and lost
I'm pushing through
I'll disregard the cost
I hear the bells
so fascinating and
I'll slug it out
I'm sick of waiting
and I can
hear the bells are
ringing joyful and triumphant

We've lost four (two in one shift) patients in a week, my headaches haven't let up for more than an hour, I think my transmission is going out, and I haven't read my Bible in three days.

It would have to depend on what type of door it is and who is doing the slamming.

In response to the question, how about castration without anesthesia, against your will, with a rusty butter knife.

i don't think Ollie was asking a question so much as illustrating exactly how unpleasant he finds the task of packing in a rush. the suggestions are certainly creative, though.

I agree. I had to move out in 2 days last year, without any notice.
I'm sure it's worse for you, being that I just rent a single bedroom in a college apartment, but I have a s***** of stuff in there so I feel your pain. I hope you had/have people to help you out...

I'm sorry, Ollie! My brother and Sis-in-law (Dave and Janna) had to move out on one day's notice once. That sucked. So they can understand. Me, I hate moving just in general, it doesn't matter how much notice I have! It seriously stresses me out.

Good luck to you! (I miss you, by the way! I seriously don't have nearly enough time to talk these days!)

I think my head would explode. I hate, HATE doing things like that on a moments notice.
Which is weird because I tend to be implusive. Just not about stuff like that, I guess.

It all depends on how hard the door was slammed. There's a point where I just can't imagine living through the pain.

I'll bet that point occurs after the point where you go into shock and feel nothing. Unless you're weak ;)

Every time I hear that, I want to beat the stuffing out of the person who said that with a stick. My reasoning is I'm doing them a favor.

Right. They shouldn't be so "weak" that they can't stop you from beating them with a stick. And if they are that weak, well - you ARE doing them a favor.

Okay, now I remember why I stick around this place.

Young Val: Thanks! I am way excited. I almost piddled.

Eaquae Legit: Who you calling a rookie, newbie-mod? P.s. I never realized until this moment how unfun typing your SN can be.

powerfulcheese04: Yay 5 weeks!

ValentineNicole: Thanks for feeling my pain, man!

steph: Thanks, and I definitely hate not chatting too. New job = more free time, however. Here's hoping.

Jayelle: Hate is a good word for it.

Okay, now that I've caught up on my correspondence, I can get back to boxing up books. (My beautiful, precious books! Don't worry darlings, I'm not abandoning you!)

It's not a pain to me. Probably because I hear all the syllables, and it's a langauge I'm used to working with. :p

I somehow smashed my toe with the door, splitting the toenail and that hurt like hell. I've never felt so much pain before. Then again, I've never had any attack on my nads before.
