:no::whip:

That sucks. I've done the same thing, except it was a harley.

I have done the same thing except it was my dads race car...

no porn for you metallover :lol:
get better soon

Was gunna take pics but nothing to see. The cream crap made my whole hand pale white and wrinkly. The skin is hard though and the blisters are present... :no:

thanks for the assurances

welcome to the "add insult to injury club" brought to you by the folks here at RC-Monster. :lol:

Mabye for the wedding you should get a pair of those white Michael Jackson gloves!

Seriously, that has to hurt more than hair ripped out. get well soon

since you are currently 1 handed, may I suggest trying out an application called dasher. it was made for easy typing with tablet PC's and PDA's, but also works if you can only use a mouse. They even use them in people who cannot move their arms by using an eye tracker to let people type. plus it's fun. the learning curve is a little steep, but then again, there isn't much else to do with 1 hand.

it isnt so bad because I have an antubiotics persciption from when I got hit in the ear with a baseball when pitching a home run derby a week ago. They had to drain out my ear so I didnt get cauliflower. they gave me antibiotics for that. I'm confident I won't get an infection with this burn now. I'm also pretty much friends w/ the dr now..

Looks like someone got injured and loss some intelligence at the same time...:lol:

Do we really need to start a section for Personal Abuse? I think there's a hotline for that as well...


Metallover- I hope you're right handed :oh:

Is this another form of that Hand Porn that's been talked about? :whistle:

bondage.:lol:

or bandage... whichever way you look at it:whistle:

You touched a muffler on a lawnmower?
YOUR WHOLE HAND TOUCHED IT?

I mean, I could understand a couple fingers...
But... your whole hand... :rofl:

Wow, seems like everyone's getting hurt these days.

By the way Mike, whatever you do, do NOT go into your stickied thread.... :whistle:

"can't hold things" huh LOVER, well you always got your right hand :rofl:

And ya, how did you burn your WHOLE hand?? :whistle:

Ouch...

I put my hand flat on a hot stove top before in 4th grade - got me out of writing assignments for 2 weeks!!

Would suck more at our age though...I hope I never screw my hands up really bad anytime in the future...

A whole new meaning to the old saying, "Rosey Palm and the Blister Sisters" ??

Another lesson learned the hard way for you young guys not working smart ? Sorry about your hand dude, I hope it heals fast. I know it sucks being having a hand out of commission for a while but at least it's not a third degree burn or worse,like missing ?

Dang, the should have went in the epic fail thread....

Hope you get better soon. Seriously keep it clean and use the antibiotics burns can get infected easily. Take care.

Many years ago, I slipped on a tree root while mowing the lawn, fell backwards into the tree, bounced off of it and my hand went under the mower deck while it was still running....ouch! Luckily, not far enough for me to loose a finger.

Yeah your very lucky it wasnt third degree burns. My brother had third degree burns on his left hand and they have to do skin grafts, off his butt. Ewwwww.

Whoa.. Now that's a horror story....

Sounds like the mower didn't feel like eating another hand that day..

Still have not heard..................


Why? :whistle:


Whatcha got planned for next week? :oops:


Get better fast dude !!! :smile:

I'll try to tell it all. I mowed the grass between the sidewalk and the street. I thought it could be a little shorter, so I started to lower the mower. I adjusted the rear wheels and one in front, then on the last one i leaned over to reach the other side. I supported myself with my hand on the muffler.

heres a pic. not as bad as i thought... I've got pretty good sized blisters on 3 fingers and thats it.:whip:

I cant bend or touch anything with those three fingers.:sleep:

You're not going to the RCM Bash are you...?

Isn't that your TX hand?

Damn... that really sucks if you're going.....:oh:

They'll stop hurting in a couple days, you'll live.
Work smart, not hard.

Sucks about your hand Riley. I bet I can match your pain.
I live on a big, steep hill and was riding my scooter down it with my friend (I was probably 11 or so) and didn't really know the laws of friction. Anyways, when we got to the bottom (about 3 minutes of being on the brakes the entire time) he had a stroke of douchebag and told me "hey, touch your brake lever". I did, and got a blister that took up about 2/3 of my palm and 4 of my fingers. I had to ice it for the next 2 days constantly, including sleeping heavily medicated with my hand in a bowl of ice water. I was not able to drive a RC for 2 weeks, nor bend or touch my hand. The degree turned out to be second degree, and popped after about 3 weeks. Pus went all over, and cleaning that is a whole 'nother story...

i must be lucky

Maybe the perscription stuff helped... I iced it no longer then 30 seconds after it happened too,, up until I got the medication put on at the clinic. I've got to go put some more perscription cream on it then go to the wedding. I'll try to just use bandaids...

Yeah, I just took a bunch of tylenol.

i played ping pong and I still owned up. It was hard to serve though with my hand all wrapped up...

Damn, i can't even play ping pong with my hand normal... I usually screw up somewhere around 2 minutes into the game...

Ouch I also had something like this happen when I first moved into my house. We got a new electric stove(you know the one flush with the counter and everything) and it was right after the wife cooked dinner. The dog snatched something when ere cleaning the dishes and I when down to pick up the food so the dog didn't get and I braced myself by putting my hand ontop of the counter(yes where the stove was, I didn't know I was still new to the new layout of the house) and the stove was left on by my wife.

I burn my hand AND fell the dog breaking one of her legs(that was a pretty penny to fix). Second degree burns aren't fun.....i'll leave it at that....
