Today I stabbed myself in the thumb with a label scraper and bled like a stuck pig. The Audobon Society is never getting a dime out of me, dammit.
Oh no! The poor birds!



Ouch. Hope your finger is OK. Label scraper sounds scary. I don't think I've ever seen one.

Scraper bike

(which has become an euphemism amongst my bike racer pals for their old crappy beater bike / frankenbike / urban assault mongrel)

I cut a finger WIDE open with a boxcutter at work once by "reaching into a drawer where it was sitting, open."

I was actually cutting flowers out of colored electrical tape. D:

I figured a tetanus shot was punishment enough for my fibbin'.

Hope it's not yer fingerin' finger. Though, flipping someone a bloody bird is pretty dang cool. *spurt* GAH!

It's my left thumb, which had me fumbling to open my cigarette pack a few times today, but I've adjusted. (The books were a lot we were buying from the audobon society's library. they had those librrary-type stickers on the spines. the boss told me to try and scrape them off. they were stuck on and I ushed to hard with the label scraper and it went right into the thumb I was bracing the book with.lousy nater fuckers. no money for you). I've maimed myself so many times on various jobs that I rarely notice anymore.

I read that as a 'lapel scraper' and thought, wow that musta been some pin.

Up to date on ye olde tetanus shot dollink?

I don't know if I've ever had a tetanus shot, actually.

Yikes, that little label-tool looks like it was just MADE to cut fingers.

Actually, that looks like something meant to slip off and stab you in the thigh. Just happy you didn't bleed out.
