Middle class injuries!

[gaijingirl]

I've only ever suffered working class injuries - being middle class must just suit me too well

Worst one was when I knicked a bag of frozen prawns and stuffed them down my leggings (it was the 80's alright?! ) where they promptly froze themselves stuck to my belly.

(although something like those alphabite things with ketchup in the middle would've been even better... prawns in the 80s = prawn cocktails = the height of sophistication - although obviously not stuck to one's stomach!!)

Note to self: must start a working class injury thread!!

Could this be a middle class injury, on account of the working classes don't read books?

I broke my toe whilst retrieving a book from the bookcase.

Fuck, it hurt!

I was only about 10

No...that's rubbish....

Surely you must've at least gotten a paper cut whilst reading The Guardian or something??

I don't think so, no

Oo Oo, this might be middle class! It's not an injury though..

I dropped a sun dried tomato down my dress whilst at Pizza Express, and it's ruined my new dress!

Now, sun dried tomatoes are middle class...!

*hopeful, in spite of there being no injury sustained*

I scraped the skin off my knuckles whilst grating parmesan yesterday.




(And I said 'whilst' then).

I was cooking some lentil/sunblushed tomato concoction thing last night and wanted to smell the aroma. I leant over and accidently headbutted the stainless steel extractor hood. there's a bit of a bruise.

and it tasted shit.

I once cracked my ribs putting 50p into my gas meter.

I take it that's a working class injury

A volvo once ran over my foot.

 

[bluestreak]

I managed to hack into my finger once, trying to get a knife into an avocado stone to remove it, so I could finish making the guacamole.

I cut my finger quite badly whilst grinding some Maldon salt between my fingers onto quinoa stuffed peppers. It hurt as it instanly also got salt in the wound.
