@suzianne saidThe lesson learned...right?🤔👍
This is so me.
Except for the breaking bones bit. Thankfully, I've never broken a bone, but I've cracked quite a few and sprained a few joints.
I've cycled in the rain, it's a bit tricky sometimes, depending on the surface. I did a 90 degree left turn on wet concrete at almost twice the speed I should have (it was at the end of a downhill, poor decision-making) and got scraped up badly. This was like 15 years ago and turns like that still scare me.
@suzianne saidMy most embarrassing one was riding a bike in Paris. Believed I could bounce the front wheel up on to the pavement. Bike stops, I go sideways and injure my wrist reaching out to break my fall. Decided to insist I was okay because it was easier than dealing with three simultaneous well meaning, but rapid French conversations. Preferred to just slip away pretending not to be in pain. Possibly cracked a bone as it took so long so heal, but decided not to go and find out. Pain is easier than negotiating hospitals abroad. 😏😳

Update for discussion and insult:
Went to the docs yesterday and she informed me that it is “metatarsalgia” which is basically an inflamed metatarsal. I looked at her for a moment and was close saying ‘well thanks a friggin’ lot for that insight”, but my internal moderator auto-deleted it.
She deflected from my more targeted questions around the cause of this metatarsal trauma to taking my BP (which was spot on) and checking my last lot of bloods for various systemic nastiness such as diabetes. Apparently all was in order.
“So doc, about this foot…?” …
She raises an eyebrow and takes another look poking around at it looking for an exquisite pain point ….which she finds… I smile my sweetest smile and indicate that she may continue her examination and to ignore my involuntary spasms. After a minute or so she looks up at me with those lovely educated eyes and asks “have you been fighting with retards on the internet?”
@badradger saidYou have posted some of the most hateful vitriolic invective I’ve ever seen on this website and are harassing me consistently (which is fine) and you childishly set yourself up as the “dive destroyer”.
I will now report you.i have never insulted your family, I hope the mods read your vile insult on my wife.
You’re a hypocritical low-brow dick head of the highest order, so you can take your manufactured outrage and shove it up your underlay.
