So today at work I fell and hurt my arms. I had ice on them, but both my elbows have now stiffened up to the point where I can hardly bend them without being in extreme pain. This sucks. I need painkillers.

How long did it take you to type that?

You might wanna get that checked out. Arms are kind of important.

No they aren't. You can learn to use your feet to grab things.

[edit:] Mind telling us how you injured them?

And I'm with zecks, get it checked out. Even though feet are fun to grab things with, you just look uncool without arms.

Without arms, you could become the Black Knight!

Sue for a whole lot of money!

The stiffness isn't uncommon for an impact injury. Ibuprofen is your friend, as is alternating ice and heat: 15 minutes icing, 15 minutes heat for a couple of rounds. If the pain and stiffness persist for more than a day or two, go get it checked out.

I was at karate on wedneday, sparring a 2nd degree black belt (I'm brown senior).

I told him to wait a second, I looked down, and said "Yeah. That hurts a lot." And then I decided to give gravity a pop-quiz.

It passed. I examined the floor quite thoroughly after this. I wasn't able to move my right leg for a good 20 minutes; something happened to a muscle or tendon and whenever I moved my foot it sent lightning bolts of pain jumping and leaping up my shin.

Still don't know why, I didn't get hit there or anything..

Anyway. Still hurts. Pity me.

Well, I've got two fractures, one in each elbow... :mad:

There goes the rest of my summer. And no, you do not want to know how long it's taking to type this. Or how painful it is. Thankfully I have some T-3s; those should help.

You should invent some kinda crazy thought-transmitted autmated reader in which all you have to do is think what you want to say and then it types it for you. And stuff. And yeah...
