Broken bones

[Siege]

Left foot big toe.
I broke it, and I didn't pay attention to it.
I thought it was just a muscle.
I did a 20 mile foot march with a broken toe.

But that's what the infantry is made for.

And that's what hacksaws are made for.

He probably thought "The Red Badge of Courage" was meant as a supplement to the field manual.

You would never understand the pain we put ourselves through every single day of our lives.

You have no fuckin idea how hard this is, especially as you get older.

It does takes a load.

No broken bones.  Physical activity is just not my thing.  In my teenage and university years, I basically stayed home to study or sit in front of the computer all day. 

In other words, similar to what I am doing now.

Mono, your live sucks.
Do you even have blood running through your veins?

I'll be delighted if I don't.  In that case I'll resign and make millions by volunteering to become a unique test subject

Had my arm almost ripped off when I was 8.

Mono is nourished by the plasma gleaned from the blood of virgins, shipped in golden vessels from the mainland.

Okay, I can't read this thread. I tried but it makes me squirm. Ugh, I'm such a wimp about injuries.

Well, I've broke my arm twice. Once when I was a little little kid I was playing ring around the rosie with my sister. I accidentally stepped on her foot and she threw me down. I broke my arm.
The other time was when I was a little kid and having a temper tantrum. Well, I jumped on an empty 20oz mountain dew bottle thinking I would crush it. It rolled out from  under me and I landed on my arm.
I didn't get a lot of calcium back then.

When I was twelve I was skiing and I fell badly and broke my leg in three places. I had to wear a large cast that was so heavy I couldn't bear the weight on crutches but instead had to sit in a wheelchair. Then, after three or four months the cast was removed and it was decided we would all go on holiday to the Azores, where, because they are Portuguese, they are very proud of their ceramic tilework. So as I descended some stairs on my crutches, that I had to use because the muscles in my leg had disappeared for lack of use, I suddenly found myself flying through the air.

It would later transpire that the restaurant I was decending into had recently cleaned the ceramic tilework of the staircase, and the wet surface had sent my crutches flying. So I broke the leg again. I travelled in an ambulance over cobble-stoned roads, every bump a new pain in my leg, to end up in a hospital where I was placed in one of these hospital beds on wheels, the side of which touched the side of a similar bed with a dying old woman in.

Another time I broke my wrist in a car accident, as an opposing car came into our lane on the high-way, also killing my dog and crushing the foot and knee of my mother (who will never walk properly again).

Broke my kneecap in the military.
