I fail to acknowlage it at times. Other times I just hold it in and deal with it. It doesn't mean in any way that I'm immortal - Pain hurts to buggery either way.
How do YOU ignore pain?

I had depression for a long time and, as a way to cope with it, I repressed emotion. Recently, when my dog died, I'd made a visualization of it (I was so desperate I attempted the Flame and the Void from the Wheel of Time series, the geek I am, and it worked). Basically, it makes me feel numb. The pain I do feel, I simply don't care about.
The trick is also incredibly hard to shake off, so I don't do it unless I absolutely need to. Being emotionless scares me, and I've noticed it scares other people.

I put two sets of people on a boat. One boat has normal everyday people on it, and the other boat is filled with horrible criminals.
I give each boat a detonator and tell them that one boat has to blow up the other by midnight or else both boats will detonate.
Then I wait to see what happens.
Yea, that is how I deal with pain.

By keeping an absolute straight face, not acting any different, but focusing on the pain and thinking
PEOPLE WHO FEEL PAIN ARE GIRLS
Well it works, ask anyone who's hit me in the face xD

Hypothetical: If you don't know the person you're talking to, do you jerk on their balls? And until I've actually been shot in the knee, I guess I won't have an answer to your question.Shurikens and Lightning said:
However, I've had a meniscus dislocate and lock, and had to bear weight on it until I could make it to the hospital, which took about an hour. Even though I was more-or-less unable to walk, the fastest they could get me into surgery was 2 weeks. Is that like being shot?
Also, do you understand the humour implicit in the comment 'sybaritic consummation of my basest needs'?
1. I like the name. I had to look twice to be sure it was what I thought it was.dillirgaf said:
2. YAY BEER!
No, not a joke, and if you included any other content I probably wouldn't have said anything, but you quoted a song, didn't bother to even put it in quotation marks, and didn't say anything that would give anyone the impression you had not come up with it yourself. I'm guessing you're just assuming that everyone is familar with the song? Well, that's kind of a leap, isn't it?Zekksta said:
Also, your 'counter argument' is ludicrous, fallacious, and doesn't even make sense, "...if we referenced everything we said..." what does that even mean? Are you trying to say that if we needed to reference everything that was from an external source and didn't, everything would be plagarism? Because that's not true. Perfect example: you say should we start citing Shakespeare for his contributions to the English language? That is absurd, we're not talking about an 'influence' or a 'contribution', we are talking about a direct quote. And yes, if I quote 'Hamlet', you can be damn sure that I'll properly attribute it.
Look, there certainly is ambiguity about paraphrasing, or borrowing concepts, but when you use the exact words that someone else wrote, you should give the credit for it. Don't believe me? You're a student, right? Go to a Lit professor and see what he or she says about your argument.
Also, a pro-tip: Insulting people doesn't 'win' an argument; it only succeeds in making you look petty and immature.
I laugh, lauhging to me is a positive way of crying. You cry when your really happy and you cry when your really sad, so in times of sadness its best making yourself happy by laughing. Even if you can't think of anything happy try laughing anyway it cheers you up because your trying to laugh, if that makes any sense.
I have a very good pain threshold, which is probably in part to the self-destructive form of Tourette Syndrome that I have, I dunno. The point is that while I'm always... always aware of the pain, I seldom have to deal with trying to ignore it because it comes naturally.
If I were to stop and try to figure out where or why I was in pain all the time, I'd never get anything done. Although when hungry or fatigued it can be harder to endure it, so in times where it passes the threshold (hello kidney stones) I usually have to take a strong pain killer. Usually doesn't make it go away but lowers it back down to tolerable levels.

I don't really 'ignore' pain I just try to endure it. I often get these really harsh stabbing pains in my lower back around the kidney area that can immobilise me for up to ten minutes. All I do is curl up and wait for it to go away, since nothing else seems to work.
