Born in the 70s. I’ve sat on my balls twice so far this year. That’s never happened before, I used to just laugh at the idea 😓
Kind of a tangent, but when I was younger I used to accidentally kick myself in the balls by sitting cross legged too quickly and hitting with my heel.
Wait until a loose toilet seat at a public bathroom slides to the side, and with all the motion, they get pinched between the seat and the porcelain.
I’ve heard of Poseidon’s kiss but this is a new lvl of danger I’ve never heard of. Thx for the new toilet fear.
Poseidon’s pinch?
Davey Johnson’s Locker?
😰 Oh dear, I know it’s going to happen now 😓
new fear unlocked
I’ve had the drink water too hard thing since forever - take a super big gulp, feels like it’s trying to blow your esophagus apart all the way down.
I absolutely hate that. The pain in the chest lingers for a while too.
In my 20s I once threw my back out pressing an elevator button.
I think you just won the thread
I just threw my back out by reading his post
I hurt myself with a secateur!
I made a false move when picking it up.
secateur
“secateur” Learned a new word! Thanks for that! 🧐
I’ve never seen it used in a singular form though … it’s always been plural like ‘scissors’.
Had a bag at the head of my bed, woke up, still laying down, reached over my head to grab something out of it, went to pull back “down” and tore my rotator cuff. I was 20.
Hope I die peacefully in my sleep like my grandad.
Not screaming like the passengers in his car.
If you’ve never sneezed and thrown your back out, count your blessings.
A few months ago, I pinched a nerve in my neck because I picked up a shampoo bottle wrong.
Oh yeah that’s happened. I had like a minor back strain already, took me a moment to stand up. In the middle of that process, I sneezed. Huge mistake.
I’ve swallowed water the wrong way and had coughing fit that cramped my gouche.
I hope it never happens again, but I’m sure instances like that will increase.
Happens to me, when I’m too lazy to really sit up in bed, when I want a sip of water during a short wake up
The cramping is hell…
yoga is real good for this tbh
This. Just a bit of stretching and light exercise 10 mins a day can do miracles. Edit: He said, and just one day after tore all muscles in his shoulder and arm from scratching his butt while walking.
Yep. Life changing.
I dislike yoga more than I like not having some micro injuries
Hey if you type
beginner stretchesinto YouTube do any of them look like you won’t hate them?Random example:
Genuinely dislike stretching. I probably wouldn’t if I did them, but starting sucks most
We could do one crappy painful one tomorrow for sixty seconds and eventually see if you’re right on “probably”, here actually:
Voice assistant, set alarm for 1 PM (Pacific) called stretch | Kusi
OK! Thank you, I will move myself esp after some gym dude said something to me like “if you never exercise in your life but you at least stretch” something about better when older. Doin’ it for me thx 2 u (AKA no pressure 😎)
I drank water too hard.
Untag me, please.
Ya’ll need to add ”walk an hour”, “eat a salad”, and “do calisthenics” to your daily routines.
And never stop doing it. One lapse or moment of weakness and bamm… back to the physio.
Constant vigilance 🙃
Not true at all wtf. If lapse is like a year sure
You’re quite right! The body thankfully does have some margin before it all goes downhill. I was exaggerating a tad to emphasize the vigilance aspect.
Although I do have older aunts and uncles who do need this level of high bodily maintenance.
(Not sure on your stance on Mr C.K but this bit lives rent free in my head on this topic Soz, couldn’t find a better link)
If by “one lapse” you mean “stop doing it for like a year”…
But yes I did that second part obviously
Remember all those injuries you brushed off when you were a kid? They’re baaaack…
Crying in Ehlers-Danlos. I was too bendy for my own good, and now I’m none bendy, left pain. All that is left is pain.
And they’re PISSED
55 here, I’m a regular runner, not a problem, even ½ marathons. However, I can just be walking to work in the most comfortable shoes, and my ankle randomly gives out, I can’t even move. 5 minutes later it’s back to normal heh.
Let me channel your loved ones: Bring a walking stick with you whenever you go. They make convenient collapsible ones. But better yet, just use a stick wherever you go. They’re convenient to have when encountering rough or slippery terrain since it’s like adding another limb to your body.
Yep, tore my meniscus in my knee a month ago shifting my weight standing still in my kitchen
I tore mine around age fifteen. I was kneeling in a garden helping a senior lady garden. Felt a weird pop when standing up. Didn’t even realize anything was particularly wrong until my knee stopped supporting me later in the day.
Sprained my back sneezing and the military medical officer insinuated that it is not possible and I was malingering… Hope that fella live a long life…

I’ve had light vertigo for 2 months because I sat up too fast in bed. It’s fucking horrible.
