Big, sharp knife + chopping cabbage = big band-aid

[RevolutionaryActs]

So there I was chopping up cabbage for coleslaw, then the knife slipped.... now I'm missing some flesh.

And I have a giant gauze/tape/band-aid thing on my left ring finger, which makes typing verrrrrrrry difficult.

[Gormy Cuss]

1. but it'll be the best coleslaw ever....

Not that I'VE got any experience with it. Much.

[RevolutionaryActs]

7. bwhahahahahaha!

Mmmmm human coleslaw.

:puke:

2. I told you that your job is dangerous, months ago.

But, you will survive.

;)

[RevolutionaryActs]

4. LOL! I know.

This is only my first major boo-boo though. :o

[graywarrior]

3. Ah. it's a once a weeker for me.

And I used to be a chef. Hurts like a bastard, don't it?

[RevolutionaryActs]

9. It does

I wish it would stop bleeding so I could put a new, less bulky, band-aid on it. x(

[graywarrior]

15. I always put noni on cuts and burns. They stop hurting immediatly.

Wish I could help. I know it's a sharp, throbbing pain. Sucks.

[RevolutionaryActs]

18. noni? What's that?

I got some good first aid at work, they've all done it before. :)

5. Ouch!

Take care and be careful! :hug:

[RevolutionaryActs]

10. It's a lesson I had to learn the hard way I guess...

ALWAYS pay lots of attention when chopping things. :)


:hug:

6. Feh! A minor flesh wound!

I have nerve damage from the Tragic Bagel Incident of 1989! :-)

Sorry about your wound, hope it heals fast.

[RevolutionaryActs]

11. We were talking about things like that

our cook told me how once she cut her finger to the bone! :scared:

[salvorhardin]

16. It's a nice anatomy lesson

At least until you pass out from the shock. Well, that and the fact that if you've done it at all right a good portion of the blood that is supposed to be on your insides is now on the floor.

[RevolutionaryActs]

21. You know how to make a person feel better, you know that?

:P

[salvorhardin]

25. I aim to please.

:-)

[RevolutionaryActs]

27. hehehe!

8. A little extra protein in the coleslaw only helps.

Years ago I sacrificed a chunk of flesh to the apple pie gods. I didn't bother to mention it to anyone at the time.

[RevolutionaryActs]

12. LOL!

Ewww. :P

[Kathleen04]

13. Ow.

You make me feel less guilty about never cooking. ;)

[RevolutionaryActs]

14. hehehe!

I'm going to start a movement at work, only PRE-chopped coleslaw! :o

[ralps]

17. I hope no one finds some of your finger in their coleslaw!!! And I hope

you put some neosporin on it. Get better soon Revolutionary_Acts04. :hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo: :scared: :cry: :hug: :hug: :hide: :yoiks:

[RevolutionaryActs]

22. HAHAHA! Nope, we tossed the batch that I had been chopping

:hug:

[Tom Kitten]

19. ouch!

that is a painful experience, you certainly have my sympathy! I work with knives at my job and have visited the ER a few times myself...you really need to take special care of your fingers! They are the only ones you have!

[RevolutionaryActs]

23. Yup! I think I've learned my lesson

The hard way. :(

[FuzzySlippers]

20. Oh honey. I can't believe

they allow you to be around sharp objects. That is such a mistake.:-(

[RevolutionaryActs]

24. ..

:rofl:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

26. My dear Rev Acts!

Owie! Please take care of yourself....I hate to see my friends hurt themselves...

Here's a kiss to make it all better::* And as my husband would say, now it's infected! J/K...

:loveya:

[RevolutionaryActs]

28. Aww thanks Peggy!

:)

[Jara sang]

29. when you say "cabbage" do you mean "money"?

destroying money is a federal offense

[RevolutionaryActs]

31. dupe

AHH DUPE LIVES AGAIN! :o

[RevolutionaryActs]

32. When I say cabbage... I mean cabbage..

[Akoto]
