art by Choco  Let me get this out of the way: I'm a klutz. I walk into things. Doors, doorframes, doorknobs, furniture, people, animals -- you name it, I've walked into it. Saying that I "bruise like a peach" would be insulting to the peach. So I end up with a lot of stupid, stupid injuries, wounds, marks and other painful and/or irritating whatnots.Today, I went to grab a twelve-pack box of soda from the bottom tray area of my shopping cart. You know those built-in handles that the cardboard boxes have? I have to drag the box over a bit before I can even pick it up -- stubby arms -- so I hook it with one finger. And then the built-in handle rips. All of the momentum of my finger trying to pull the box over is released into the metal shopping cart. Guess who has a bruised knuckle? We're not talking a little yellowing, no, that would be too easy to hide. It's not been four hours and my knuckle is already purple. PURPLE. It hurts so much that holding the mouse button down for extended periods of time makes me want to chop off my entire hand. How do I play Diablo, right index finger?! HOW. The latest instalment in the comedy of errors otherwise known as Alana Attempting to Co-Exist Peacefully with Stationary Objects.  CC, tell me about your truly derpy injuries. I won't judge.

--- I was riding down a hill with my bike and turned a sharp right like an idiot & scraped up me knee so bad that I have a three inch scar. Also one time I slammed my hand into the car door by accident & it was bruised & I couldn't move it for a good week. & another time, I stepped on a rake with the tongs up & had to get a tetanus shot & I couldn't walk on it for about a month. ): I'm never safe!

 I'm like the queen of getting hurt lately. I was cleaning out my fish tank earlier and while I was moving some of the bamboo around, the fish bit onto my finger and refused to let go. I had to pull it out of the water for a few and wiggle it off. I've whacked my knee several times on my work desk too. After like, the 5th time you would think I'd remember there's a board there, but I guess not. My boss has started a coin jar where every time I ram my knee into that thing, we both have to put something in. It funds our lunch breaks, so it works. Edit because I always forget to ping, sob.

 november 19, 2008. it has a DATE it's that bad. so this is the day that the new xbox experience was downloadable and i was really excited. i was living in a dorm room at the time and my bed was on risers so i could have more storage underneath. therefore, i had a small step stool i would use to get in and out of bed. WELL I WAS SOOOOOOOO EXCITED TO GRAB MY CONTROLLER that i jumped off my bed onto my stool, but half of my right foot wasn't on the stool and my ankle snapped. it was the worst pain i had ever felt in my life. my roommate was in class. all of the guys around our room were in class. it was horrible. i couldn't get up, so i call my mom crying because i didn't know what to do as i'm just lying there on the floor lol. i fractured my ankle and was on crutches for a few months. DID I MENTION I LIVED ON THE THIRD FLOOR OF A BUILDING WITHOUT AN ELEVATOR? the rest of that semester sucked so bad. Last Edit by:

 My bed is located against a wall with a window on it. Well actually it's in the corner of my room but still, window next to my bed. A window contains a windowsill. Well one day, I don't remember what prompted me to do this, but I started throwing a Bruce Almighty style tantrum in my bed. And if you've never seen that movie, it basically involves lots of kicking and flipping around. During this tantrum, I ended up tossing onto my left side, and slamming my right knee onto the windowsill. To this day it still hurts me if I keep it bent too long, and my knee-cap clicks out of place when I walk, and I have to kick the air to get the kneecap to click back in place. Oh and this one other time, I got off my bed, tripped on the carpet I guess, landed on the other side of my room, and somehow managed to knock everything, including my stereo, off the table next to my bed without touching it.

Worst thing I've done lately is break my collarbone, dislocate my shoulder and snap my wrist - all in one happening.  Somewhat similar story to RedSekhmet's, I slipped getting out of the shower - somehow... I mean, I shut the shower water off, and then pulled back the curtain, and I done something to make myself slip when I was wrapping a hand towel around my hair and ... Yeah. I sorta ate laminate flooring , I couldn't feel my arm (due to the dislocation) but the pain in my collar bone had me howling. I was home alone at the time, too, so only my dog came - was so awkward trying to get my big towel around me after calling the ambulance

Okay I'm actually gonna post before I read the thread but I don't wanna lose these memories so here are the only ones I remember: 1. Got bad burns on my pointer and middle 'cause I was trying to pull a coffee maker closer to me by grabbing it by the hot plate. 2. Bloody nose from walking into a door because I forgot to turn the knob before pushing and walking forward. 3. Hot oil burns on my thighs because, well, who doesn't like to cook in their undies?

While I haven't done anything stupid lately, I did manage to hurt myself the lat time my mom was out of town. I was walking some stuff into the basement and while I was going down I tripped and fell. Wound up at the bottom of the stairs with a swollen ankle and a box full of books scattered everywhere. I was just thankful that the basement is my bedroom, but my laptop and cell phone were upstairs so I had no way to contact anyone for help. I wound up just crawling to my bed and laying there until my friend came over the following day and found me in a little ball of misery with a twisted ankle.
My biggest problem is that this is really common for me. It's like the universe knows that as soon as I'm alone it can mess with me, because I only seem to hurt myself when there's no one around. I've backed into tables and run into doors before, but it only seems to happen when no one else is home so I just kinda have to deal with it all by myself >>

When I was 9 or so I liked to do this thing where I tucked my arms and my knees into my coat so I just looked like this ball WELL one time I did it at a department store and I fell forward and broke my front (permanent)tooth on the floor. I had to get it capped and you can't even tell half the tooth is fake but I have to be careful with what I eat in the front of my mouth now. Easily the most regrettable injury I've ever gotten lol Last Edit by:

Well.... As for the finger, I would just use a trackball mouse, so that the left clicker is operated by the thumb, trackball by the middle finger, and the right clicker by the ring finger.
But, as far as derptastic injuries, I have a number of them. My favorite one, would be when I tried to jump a table that was cut from stone at the community college, and my left foot caught the edge of the thing, and I went crashing into the ground. My arms were gashed.. Oddly enough, that was the only injury I sustained... One would think that a fall from a table of such a height would cause more harm if you fell from it, but it didn't. All well... Another one, I dislocated my shoulder while my brother was driving. We got into an accident, and the seat belt pulled my right shoulder out of it's socket. |

My latest ones are beautiful. Two of my friends and I were at the movie theater for a re-screening of our favorite Sci-Fi movie (Serenity). One of them ran off to the washroom before the movie started and the other one had to go to, but she'd slipped off her flats to put her feet up on the seat in front of her and now couldn't locate her shoes again. Being the good person that I am, I leaned forward to help her look for her shoes... and bashed my head on the seat in front of me so hard I almost knocked myself out. I had a giant red mark and seat edge imprint on my forehead for most of the rest of the day and the headache lasted clear through to the day afterward... my injured pride will never be the same. I swear she's STILL laughing at me. The second recent derp injury was just the other day while I was hanging out with my BFF poolside. I have a one piece bathing suit that has straps you can either remove or cross over in a variety of ways that has little strap hooks just underneath the top hem line. So I was trying to unhook one of the front straps while wearing the suit so I could change the strap orientation to preserve my tan lines when it got a bit stuck. So I began to yank on it to try and get the hook dislodged. I pulled so hard that when it finally came loose I actually full-out punched myself in the face. It hurt so bad. I was sure I'd cut my lip on my tooth, but it was just a little bruised up on the inside. Still, it hurt like made and my jaw was all tender for a couple of days where I'd gotten myself. It was rad. |

 while i'm lucky to have never seriously injured anything, i am the queen of falling down. sometimes i don't even know wtf happens and suddenly i'm just on the ground. the ongoing joke is "be careful! there's some gravity over there!" my worst one though was i was sitting on the floor, and i'm going to have to assume that my foot fell asleep, because idek, i stood up, turned around and suddenly was on the floor. my husbands like "omg are you ok??!!?" got up, took two steps and HOLY BANANAS. i have never felt such pain in my life. i don't have a clue what i did to my foot, but i couldn't even walk for 3 days, and i couldn't wear shoes at all for about a month. went to the doctor and they found nothing. worst ego injury? haha oh man. so we were going to an all day concert. we live in las vegas, so middle of the desert, middle of july. not a drop of water in sight and it's already 110. park a million miles away, walking up to the concert (it was outdoor) and we are behind the stage. i'm not looking where i'm going because i'm looking at the band from behind. WTF AM I STEPPING ON...LOSING CONTROL...BOOM. i stepped on a giant pointy rock that made me lose my balance and i fell. into a mud puddle. the only one in like the whole state. i just laid there and watched everyone walk past and stare. then my husbands all "why are you just laying there? get up!" i was like "why. i'm already covered in mud." lol needless to say, we had to drive all the way back home so i could change because i wasn't gong to spend 12+ hours covered in mud. ;c also, is there a guinness book of world record for falling down the most stairs? because i should probably win that.

Haha. I walk into things a lot too. I also tend to trip on flat ground more than I should. The worst I've hurt myself recently was at a beach in Hawaii...the waves there were brutal, easily over ten feet tall. I thought it'd be fun to surf in it. But alas, I am not an experienced surfer, and I fell off. I got tossed around underwater and smacked against the ocean floor and then washed up onto the sand. I didn't break anything so I was able to crawl over to my towel and flop down and sleep there. But it hurt for weeks. Next worst had to be just last weekend in Ocean City, NJ. I stepped on a large adult crab in the ocean. I promptly received a two inch scar on my heel and puncture wounds in my toes. Even worse, I decided to pick up the thing and proceeded to obtain pinch marks on both index fingers and my left thumb. I truly am stupid like that. I don't think beaches are my thing, heheh.

@Linens Some days, I think I am truly an accident magnet. Seriously. I'm probably the biggest klutz of my family/friends. Luckily, I'm usually only a hazard to myself, but occasionally I bring down friends/stationary objects with me... Those are always the stories I find particularly hard to explain. Lesse... I'm forever running into doorknobs/door frames/doors/counters/corners/whatever, particularly with my hips so I feel like I've been shot every. Single. Time. You'd think I'd bruise from all of that, but no. Usually, I don't bruise easily. But I have an elevated bed, and I always wind up hitting the bottom right corner of my bed frame somehow, no matter if I'm cleaning or just trying to walk around the edge or anything. My poor leg has been hit enough times that I had a series of bruises going above my thigh from the corner just a few days ago. Most of healed up now, but they'll be back. ._. You would think I'd learn that corner won't just move out of my way eventually. I have apparently not so far. My most recent injury (courtesy of today) is unexplained; I was shaving and somehow hacked my thumb. Oh no, not on the pad of it or anything, but on the side. Right above the knuckle, so that hurt to bend for a bit. I don't even know; I didn't even realize I was cut until I looked down later and saw the cut. Along with my thumb today, I may have accidentally murdered a smoke alarm... Eh heh. In the past I have accidentally hit my friends multiple times using hand gestures while talking, one time completely backhanding my friend. Not hard, luckily, but she still bring it up to this day. <_< It's okay though; she managed to make a pen cap flip off a desk at school. It shot across, hit our friend directly across from her in the glasses, bounced and hit our other friend (who was sitting across from me; I was sitting to the direct right of the friend who started the incident) in his glasses, bounced yet again and struck me hard in the jugular. That wasn't terribly recent, but that was when we all really realized that I'm just flat out danger-prone. There was also a time where at school I passed out for 0.0043 of a second or something (gravity needed testing?), and I went from standing with a friend in the office to suddenly being flat out on my butt on the ground, wondering why gravity decided to just utterly own me in the middle of school; I trip enough without it actively trying, thanks. .... I don't even know how I haven't managed to seriously injure myself yet. Incredibly proud and impressed. But yes. My life is, essentially, one moment of klutziness to the next. Last Edit by:

2) i was riding my bike downhill and somehow managed to run into my neighbor's mailbox....needless to say i was glad they weren't home and hadn't seen the embarrassing incident 3) at work (this is recently actually) i didn't lift a glass high enough and hit it on the side of the sink basin thingy....i ended up breaking it and sending glass about 5 feet from where i was standing.... this doesn't even count the numerous times i've hit doors, walls, corners, chairs, etc.

 I was walking out of the bathroom at night and my brother jumped out at me (I'm insanely jumpy) causing me to jump back and fall, hitting my knee, elbow, and head on the door frame and sending me into a fit of coughing/choking/laughing and I kind of thought I was going to die.Another time I was getting a glass of water and as I turned the sink off, I stabbed my elbow on a fork that was sticking out of the dish drainer. One time when I was in our school's performing arts center first hour, I jumped down the last couple of stairs to the stage and, because there is virtually no padding between the carpet and the concrete floor, I broke my foot and had to walk on it all day. And the next. And the next until it eventually stopped hurting (my parents don't like hospitals...) Oh and this is probably the stupidest of all injuries, but one time my brother threw a Tootsie Pop across the house and managed to hit me square in the temple. I had this massive lump on the side of my face and I kind of thought I was internally bleeding or something. I had a black eye for the entire first week of school that year and had to explain to EVERYBODY what happened. There's probably more but I can't remember any at the moment

Last summer, I was wandering around the computer desk in the library and ran smack into the corner with my left leg so hard, I went down, sat on the floor and cried. I had a bruise the size of my fist on my thigh for the rest of the summer. x.x It's still tender a year later.

I murdered the microwave with grapes and got hit with the little door thing on it when it flew off. It was interesting to explain the huge bruise on my forehead.. Walked straight into the ladder of my brother's bunk bed and almost broke my ankle. Fell off the uneven bars & sprained both ankles because I'm stupid & forgot to switch my hands, meanwhile hitting the lower bar with my toes & nearly breaking about four of them. Forgot to open the door before walking through it & got a very sore nose. Tried to throw a bizarre toss with my flag that rotates over one's head & forgot to catch it, resulting in a rather large bruise on the top of my head & quite nearly a broken arm. Gave myself a black eye throwing a swing toss with said flag. Almost broke my ankle trying to do a double on my rifle. Got hit with a soccer goal. Yes, the actual goal, not the soccer ball. Happened 6-7 months ago & the bruise is still there.. And for the most truly ridiculous one I can recall.. My cousin & I were having a sort of war with a plush rabbit. We were trying to decide whether to decapitate said rabbit or not when I randomly fell off the bed right into the lamp and not only broke the lamp, but gave myself a black eye & a sprained wrist & ankle trying to untangle myself. Then walked promptly into the wall. Did manage to decapitate the rabbit in the process, though. Aside from those, I walk into walls, trip over flat surfaces & cut myself on round objects multiple times a day, so I'm not what many people would consider safe.

I accidentally slammed a car door on my face a few months ago. I don't know how it happened, all I know is it was in my school's busy parking lot and I'm glad no one seemed to notice. :c Also, a few years ago I managed to fracture my femur when I went to go sit down on my bed- I ended up having to go to the hospital, where they gave me a leg brace I had to wear for a month or two. It's got to be one of my most painful, stupid, and expensive injuries to date. :c Last Edit by:

I've slipped on a small toy at the top of a set of stairs at home (big bump on the head and a bruise that covered the entire back of one of my thighs), burned my right arm getting a pizza out of the oven, broke my wrist when I was trying a bike for the first time, broken wrist when I slipped on the remaining square inch of ice at the base of the driveway, broken wrist from falling off my brother's bed while sitting, and a broken wrist from my brother pushing me down at the bus stop in 8th grade. Also, in 7th and 8th grade I would trip over my own feet a lot (about once a week), and once while going up the stairs at school. My stuff went everywhere then. EDIT: I've had about 5 more broken wrists and a couple sprains I don't remember how I got them during my childhood. Last Edit by:

Recently my fiance messed up his ankle and we think it's permanent. like something tore. I locked him out as a joke, and he thought the slider door was still unlocked and so while running toward it he tripped over logs. He was screaming in pain for a good 15 minutes.It was also Christmas eve, so he went to all our family gatherings with crutches. I still feel bad to this day. :c

RokuNi I have a few. Once in 5th or 6th grade I was running near a fence during recess and there were trees planted right in front of the fence. I ended up running between the fence and a tree and tripped over the tree, sprawling onto the ground. And then another time around those years I was at my bestie's house and she lives on a lot of land with a huge hill. They had goats at the time and would put up this rope between the goat pen and a post across the way that kept the goats from going up the hill. Well I forgot about this and I decided to run down the hill. When I finally saw the rope, I couldn't stop and I had to jump to get over it. I landed on my knees and hands, slid about 5 or 10 feet, and ended up with nasty cuts. Oh and once when my cousins still lived out here we were all at my grandma's house jumping on the trampoline (there were 6 of us) and I got bounced hard and fell off the trampoline. The area around the trampoline was literally a nest of goatheads and a whole bunch of them stabbed into my feet. I had to walk back to the house with them stuck and it hurt so bad. And finally around 6th grade, my sister fractured my finger blah blah blah. I had a splint. I went to my friend's house next door and was going into the backyard through the garage, and I managed to slam the fractured finger in the door. It took me a good five minutes to get it out, and then I had to walk home cuz the pain was just unbearable. I've also managed to trip and fall on air numerous times at school, walk into crap, and be a total klutz. XD Edit: I just remembered that I was in my room once and it was dark and I couldn't see for a while, but I was walking towards my bed and I tripped on something, can't remember what, and ended up smacking my face on my bedframe, as well as my chest.

@linens Oh dear, that sounds both comical and painful, hope you're alright! I'm pretty derpy too, for someone who comes across as a dainty lady I can be such a clumsy bugger. When I was 13 I fell down the stairs, grabbed for the railings but missed several times and managed to land exactly on the corner of an ornament, thanks to that I have a small scar under my chin because I refused stitches. I remember being sat on the sofa afterwards and drifting in and out of consciousness while my mum rang the hospital but it's a bit fuzzy and I just remember eating pizza after that and being fine. Oh and in March I was on the way to MCM expo in Birmingham with my boyfriend and he encouraged me to jump over a fence because the gate was locked. The fence was taller than me and very wobbly, I don't know what I was thinking -.- I lost my balance at the top, landed awkwardly and badly sprained my ankle (doctors thought I'd broken a very tricky bone to fix). So yeah, I ruined our trip to the con and sulked for the whole day, blaming @Lungs for everything xD Of course I don't blame him now, but it's still not something I look back and laugh with him about.

I'm super injury prone as well  I'm always knocking things over or tripping over flat ground. Just today I pretty much faceplanted onto concrete after getting out of my car because my legs gave way - I'd just finished a pretty intense round of physical therapy on my knee and I guess I hadn't regained enough strength yet...My "favourite" 2 derp injuries would be the time my best friend and I were both laughing so hard she tripped and fell into me, and I in turn fell into her bedroom door.. I went termite on that door and ended up biting a huge chunk out of it, and we both couldn't stop laughing even as I was spitting splinters of wood out. The second one would be when I was sawing a sheet of silver and I had a slightly uneven edge on one side, and for some reason, instead of filing it down, I decided to be lazy and tried to smooth it out with my saw. Cue my saw slipping.. straight into my finger. Took a good chunk of the tip of my finger out. Everyone that saw what happened freaked out because I was bleeding everywhere but all I was more amused than anything and just kept working after I got the bleeding stopped. |

 Once I was running down the hallway in my apartment when a buddy of mine called out to me. Instead of stopping and turning, I just turned my head briefly while I continued to run. As soon as I looked back in front of me, I ran right into a door frame, split my eyebrow open, and gave myself a black eye. It honestly looked like I'd been in a bar fight. My buddy was laughing so hard right after it happened that my building manager came out and yelled at us to stop horsing around. Unfortunately I was sober, so I had no excuses!  Forum set by |

So, I was washing a mug last year in the sink, and noticed a thin crack down and around it. I didn't think much of it, and so so I washed it like normal, pushing down into the cup to get the tea stains or whatever off the bottom. Then the mug's entire bottom pops out, and my hands goes through it, leaving gashes all around my hand. One of them on my knuckle didn't stop bleeding for an hour. It was really silly, and it looked like I punched something for like two weeks because of all my cuts lol. I still have a scar

 @Linens xD That's messed up but we are exactly alike so do not feel bad  I am the biggest klutz in minnesota. I fall up stairs. I fall downstairs and break my tail bone twice. I play on the swings as a kid and end up getting dirt in my eye and getting it flushed out for 10 minutes. I've done some horrible horrible things no one would ever believe and you would think we would be immune to injuries like these by now.

 I can't recall many of my derptastic injuries at the moment but I'm pretty sure I've had plenty. One that I can remembered for sure was when I was 8, I had just moved into my dad's place from another town where my mom used to work and well, for some reason one day while I took a shower I was bouncing around in the bathroom and decided to bounce off the floor, you know, kinda like kicking both my legs off the floor and hang on to the sink with my hands to support my weight like that. Only, the sink was merely 'hung' to the wall, not cemented to it. The next thing I recalled was me lying flat on the bathroom floor among gazillion ceramic pieces that used to be the sink and my dad came running in panic after hearing the ungodly loud crash to see me in that state. xD;; Looking back I feel amazed that I was pretty damn lucky I only got a dozen of cuts on my hands and knees, if I was unlucky I could end up with a ceramic piece stab into my stomach or something.
