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 😓
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.
new fear unlocked
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 😓
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.
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 once sneezed hard and somehow had my hair caught in my armpit, hurting my neck
Thanks, that made me laugh
Old guy 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.
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.
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.

I ate a salad wrong last month, stabbed my self in the soft pallet with a lettuce steam and had a sore throat for 2 weeks.
But instead I’ll probably sit on my ass and have pizza tonight.
I mean, it’s Sunday.

Remember all those injuries you brushed off when you were a kid? They’re baaaack…
And they’re PISSED
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.
My worst mountain biking injury was because I looked down at my back tire and pulled the SHIT out of a muscle in my upper back.
And I used to crash a lot. The muscle pull was worse
I stumbled a few months back stepping over a rope that was about fifteen centimeters off the ground and cracked a rib or something. I didn’t even fall, just kinda leaned forward the wrong way a bit. Pain for weeks.
Something similar happened to my husband! Threw his back out by slipping and not falling on ice 😂
Maybe we should be trying less hard to not hurt ourselves. 😝
Or try harder.
Go full bubble boy.
Sneezed on the toilet once with my head turned. Neck was frozen for like a week after that one lol.
Jfc, I’m still dealing with a muscle I pulled turning over in bed. In November of last year.
Nothing like sneezing so hard you get a crick in your neck for a week. 44.
Ffffffff
Fart while sneezing also hurts. Feels like something ripping.
You ever have a sneeze you feel in your arms for about an hour? Like you sneeze, your blood pressure hits 9000 PSI for 8.2 milliseconds and your ghost aches for awhile?
Can’t say I have - but that’s a very vivid description!
Yes!
Nope, can’t say that I have. You should get that checked out.
Sneezing is one of the top ways people throw out their backs.
After having my back go out twice from sneezing, I asked my doctor about it. He told me this life changing tip which so far (6 yrs) has never failed. When you feel a sneeze coming on, pull your shoulder blades back and look directly up, you can sneeze as hard as you want in this position and you will be fine. In my experience just the looking up is usually enough to protect the back, the pulled back shoulder blades is just an added layer of protection.
I woke up from a good sleep last year, got up refreshed and ready for work. First time in years that it happened. Stood up and did a big yawn and stretch, then felt a sharp ripping feeling in my back. I tore a muscle stretching. I was 29 and it still wants to lock up today.
Bonus; tore it a year before almost to the day by literally just rolling over in bed. I felt it happen, said “aw fuck” and went back to sleep. Road trip to Maine and Martha’s Vineyard cancelled because the pain was too intense to drive.
But I’m very tall. I managed to throw my back out by pushing in an empty dining room chair that even had felt on the bottom of the legs sliding over linoleum. That was last year, luckily no repeats. I don’t fear my dining room yet.
Last month my neck didn’t work. Pulled something while sleeping.
42, I’ve thrown my back out lifting the toilet seat.
36, laundry basket
At 30, dried my hair too hard with a towel. Pulled my neck
36 now. I don’t remember my exact age at the time, but at approximately eighteen I dislocated my shoulder turning over in bed.
