Are you clumsy?

[JohnKleeb]

I know this is very irrelevant but i am one clumsy nut case. Earlier tonite while leaning on my chair I hit this door on my desk and it kind of broke. I also was bleeding a bit on my armpit, have marks on my back, and am in pain. I am so clumsy guys, its so funny it hurts.
Again I know irrelevant but if you had a bad day and need someone to laugh at I am your guy.

1. What did you say?

I missed it because I just tripped over something, bruised my knee, and fell on my ass.

(yes, two left feet)

[Nailzberg]

2. I voted OTHER to a yes/no question.

[JohnKleeb]

3. you mean yes and no

Who the hell voted lol? If you find out who it is tell me lol ok I admit I voted lol because although I am in pain it was funny. Now come and watch old grateful one slip on ice come winter.

[leftist_rebel1569]

4. yup...

I also voted for that mystery gray zone in the Yes/No dilemma...

5. When I was little

my parents started getting funny looks from the people at the naval hospital for the frequency of our visits...I was eventually *prescribed* ballet at age 4 in hopes of improving my coordination. :D

I'm happy to report it worked, to an extent, although I'm still the only person I know who's broken their wrist after falling over while doing...nothing. Just one minute standing, next, pile of bones on the ground! I'm unhappy to report I think I have passed along the clumsy gene to my chillins, they're total klutzbags! :P

6. LOL

"...kind of broke."

kind of broke a door? Is that like kind of pregnant?

I'm the 2nd lol vote btw.

[JohnKleeb]

9. Yes and I was the first thats how much of a klutz I am

well I was leaning on my chair and I fell on this small door, it was awful. I dont know what its like to be pregant.

[FDRrocks]

7. No, little Kleeb!

Surprisingly, I am not. My hand eye coordination was honed by years of Nintendo and my general motor skills by years of playing various sports.

I feel for ya dude, hope you get well soon.

[JohnKleeb]

10. I will be fine

Thanks though. I play video games too but I do some really dumb stuff too to hurt myself.

[Kahuna]

8. No. I have reflexes like a cat.

Yea for me.

[Castilleja]

11. Oh god, yes!

I concentrate on walking around things often, to make sure I don't trip on stuff. At the gym, for example. You might think I am being deliberate and careful, but no, I am trying not to fall down, or get tangled in a weight rack, bump into someone, etc... I think some of it is weight related, but I was not born graceful.

I also have a bad habit of finding the nearest hidden broken thing, ie. when we go out, I pull out drawers, or wiggle poles and things (to see if they are loose :dunce: ) Invariably these things break or try to fall out or off. My son is the same way. I just like to fiddle with things, I guess.

I hope you mend, though. :)

[JohnKleeb]

12. I'll be fine

It just stings.

13. you bet I am ...

I walked into my classroom tonight and found some of my students moving chairs out of the way. They were worried I might trip on them during the lecture, since I tend to space out a bit when I'm talking ...

[JohnKleeb]

14. interesting

In Spanish class on Wednesday there was a kid who fell out of his chair. I trip a lot too. Thankfully my shoelaces dont come undone..............much.

[Paragon]

15. Reading this headline, I'm reminded of Marc Maron...

"Do you like dogs?"

[JohnKleeb]

19. who lol

[Rhiannon12866]

16. Yes, John, I am very clumsy.

I also bruise easily. I currently have a large bruise on my arm where the car door shut on it because someone spoke to me while I was getting out. This sort of thing happens to me all the time!:shrug:

[JohnKleeb]

18. sucks dont it

[Rhiannon12866]

22. Yes, it does! LOL!

I always have bruises somewhere. Arnica gel is something you can use for them, providing that the skin isn't broken, Thanks for reminding me!:-)

[Rhiannon12866]

25. I neglected to tell you what happened to me when I was a junior

in high school. I broke my foot in gym class while running in place. I kid you not. I was on crutches in the wintertime which was a nightmare. My friends said I should tell people I did it skiing! I was at boarding school and got into trouble for not attending some classes, but I just could not crutch that far!:-(

One time I fell on a slippery sidewalk. It was on a hill and I slid, crutches and all, knocking down all the girls walking in front of me like so many bowling pins! It's lucky I didn't break something else!:D

I was once interviewed by a new doctor. He wanted to know my health history and asked if I had ever broken anything. I told him yes, that I had broken both arms and my foot. He wanted to know if I had been in an accident! I told him no, that they were all separate incidents! LOL!:7

So there, John, who's the clumsy one now!:hi:

[JohnKleeb]

29. I interestingly enough have broken no bones but pain hurts lol

Rhi I got hit in the basketball three times in two years in my first two years of high school. :hi: rhi

[Rhiannon12866]

32. I guess you have stronger bones than I do, John!

I broke both of my arms, falling down stairs, on two separate occasions! The right one was when I was seven; the left one was when I was twenty-seven! I always thought I would improve when I grew up! And yes, pain hurts, whether you break anything or not. I always knew we were kindred spirits! LOL!:hi:

[SmileyBoy]

17. lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol.

I'm TOTALLY lol.

[JohnKleeb]

20. heh it was pretty funny although it hurts

[foreigncorrespondent]

21. I am so clumsy...

...I fall out of cars, and fall into walls when I am not even drunk. LOL

[Philostopher]

23. I can type 85 words per minute on a good day.

I can remember the names of all the Presidents of the U.S.

I had ten years of piano lessons and was pretty good when I quit, as a teenager.

I've driven a manual transmission for almost twenty years and had no stick-shift related accidents -- and I've only managed to go through one clutch in at least 300,000 miles of driving.

I cannot walk in a straight line across a room in my home, where I've lived for about five years, without contracting several bruises between my ankles and my shins.

I'd love to blame it on four cats and a small dog, or on my packrat spouse, but the truth is I've always been that way, ever since I was a kid, no matter how much hand-eye coordination stuff I tried to master.

24. Clumsy doesn't even begin to cover it...

I'm the only person I know who can trip over her shoe-laces while bare-foot.

[Richardo]

26. That's like asking "Are you left-handed?" Which of course I am....

Gravity is my enemy. :-)

[JohnKleeb]

28. LOL I am Left handed

[rucky]

27. Oooops...I accidentally voted "yes"

[GURUving]

33. Only when I'm not forewarned of a change in the earths rotation rate.

Other than that, usually okay.
