We've just gotten home from the ED with Jak. He's managed to break his right wrist, this time. Last time it was his right hand. Luckily, he's left-handed, but I'm a bit done with the whining, doctors' visits, casting, and more whining that his breaking a bone entails.  <_<

It did make me wonder how many Languishites have broken bones before. I've broken two toes and a clavicle, myself. 
Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

Bones of steel, magically enough.  Probably a lot of tiny fractures never got checked out though...

What he do?

If a surgical operation that removed 4 inches of my right tibia counts as a broken bone, then yes.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Left hand and right wrist. Tell him to listen to the doctor when he says to lift NOTHING with that hand. An empty plastic plate managed to permanently disfigure my right wrist. <_<

What he do?

Went out bike riding and didn't realize that when he hit the breaks hard the bike would stop and he would keep going.

This child will be eligible to drive in four weeks. :mellow:

Hubris must be punished. Severely.

I've never broken anything.

I have definitely broken both thumbs; I am pretty sure I have broken all of my other fingers as well at some point.

I also dislocated my left shoulder 6 times and separated and dislocated my right shoulder once in a drunken bicycle escapade.

Left wrist as a child, I'm pretty sure I've had stress fractures from running, a few twisted ankles, many scars.

Both wrists, several bones in my foot that I limped around on till they healed.

Left wrist.  Though to be fair, I didn't break.  Some guy named Peter did.  He was from Iceland or something.  I've always hated Icelanders since.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Oh yeah.  I dropped a car battery on my foot and broke a couple of the little bones in there too.
