How do you react to pain?

[Fledge]

Usually when blood's involved I very calmy say something along the lines of "That was really f***ing painful". I much prefer that to blunt pain, such as being thumped in one place repeatedely. Then I will just try and prevent any further pain and tell the person doing it how immature they are.
I never cry to pain. What's the point? I don't need tears to clean any wounds when first aid is around.

I'm an 8 Like when I shattered my knuckle I only knew that there was something wrong because I couldn't clench my fist tightly. On the other hand the most intense pain I've ever felt drove me temporarily insane. However it did last for quite a while getting continuously worse and worse.

Do you still have your leg? Did you get the tattoo redone?

Did you kill the ************?

I still have my leg yep although it isn't "working as intended" anymore. They had to replace my kneecap with a less than usable thing that doesn't bend. Looks quite funny when walking.

Can't get tattoo redone far too much scar tissue. It's more or less mangled as far as the flesh goes. Looks awful but it's great for comparing "war wounds" with people down the local.

4 of us were shooting and he fell over but we don't know which one hit him. I'll take a rough guess and say it wasn't me, I wasn't in the best position kinda flopped on the floor like a grounded salmon but either way the bastard wasn't moving so it ended on a happy note.

On an even happier note I still milk it to this day when my wife wants to go clothes shopping it's amazing how those old wounds can suddenly flare up painfully again.

I generally ignore it and carry on as best as possible.

 

[Mariner]

Had a trauma long time ago so basically try to avoid pain as much as possible and will start crying even though the stops after a few minutes.

A while ago, a few friends and I were had an drinking theme night. The theme was "Vikings". So we were pretty much drinking a whole lot of mead and 1 guy brought a little self made morningstar/cat-o-nine tails hybrid. I was in such a drinking frenzy I pretty much just screamend: "Hit me!" and hold out my arm, so that he could whip me on the arm. The feeling was great. But I don't always react like that. Mostly I just swear really loud to help the pain go away.

 

[scorptatious]

Um...

"Ow"?

If it was severe,

"AAAAAAH! The pain! The pain!"

 

[Alkaline]

I sing this:

 

[Dr Snakeman]

Generally with the word "ouch".

Hey, same here! What a coincidence!

Yeah, just a lot of "ow, ow, ow" and stupid jokes when I get hurt. Don't think I've ever been big on crying, though. Not even when I was younger.

 

[ThreeWords]

I'm usually in category three; my flight reflex is essentially broken, and I register pain with almost no actual associated discomfort. Put simply, I register damage but once it's there it doesn't trouble me.

...more fights than I could wiggle a kitten at...

Heh. Wiggle a kitten...

4) People who only really feel the pain for a few seconds after being injured.

I'd say that's the most correct one. I do believe it's due to a high threshold for pain and I've always recover fast from physical exhaustion and pain.

The only negative thing about having a high treshold for pain is that when you actually feel pain, it kind of hurts like hell.

 

[Riff Moonraker]

It depends, really. I took kickboxing and martial arts since I was 12. We used to beat the hell out of each other, and I couldnt get enough of it. External pain, for me, is something that you can kind of switch off in your mind. The only kind of pain I have trouble with is something thats internal, and feels.... odd. Then, its more of a nagging worry, then anything.

But there have been a few occasions where I have banged my head on some metal rack or something running fiber and such where I have snapped. I shattered a phone and broke a chair doing that. However, those few times where I lost my temper (and as a black belt I should know better than to let anger get the better of me) it was during an extremely trying time in my life, so I think it stemmed more from that.

 

[The_Fezz]

Generally with an excessive amount of swearing, though an associate of mine responds with a questionable change in his downstairs area.

 

[legend of duty]

i laugh or wince when i know when its coming.

 

[Jacob Haggarty]

Somewhere between 3, 4 and 1.

 

[Artina89]

I don't really react. If I am joking around I will ask for my mummy and whine, but after breaking an arm, ribs and hand I don't really find that many things painful.

 

[Aeshi]

Irritation for minor things (such as a banged knee), RRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGEEEEEEEEEEE for anything greater.

 

[Jimmy T. Malice]

Mainly irritation. As in, "Ouch, quit shooting me in the face!"

 

[smokeyninjas]

Depends on the type of pain really, I've had broken ribs & a broken hand & while both were uncomfortable they not going to stop me going about my normal day but a kick to the balls cripples me with agony while i struggle to breath which is closely followed by blind rage
