Lexodus Is Hit By A Bus

[Lexodus]

I was in London, on a college trip to see Cat On A Hot Tin Roof, and we were given an hour's free time. A buddy and I went off to get some lunch, and I noticed they were doing some works on the pavement, as they had put up a channel of sorts of red barriers for pedestrians to walk through, whilst avoiding the London traffic.
Well, that was the plan, anyway. I was walking through this channel, heading back to the theatre, when all of a sudden this great fucking bus comes speeding round the corner and plows right through the barriers, knocking me flying. In pain (I did just get hit by a fucking bus), I notice that I dropped my damn Subway, and I throw a fit. Not the fact that I was hit and suffered minor damage to my entire left side and now have to take meds, but the fact that I lost a sandwich, caused me to flip out like a small, pale and chubby Hulk.

So, in the spirit of this experience, I ask you, Escapists: have you ever been in any odd accidents? And have you ever had your priorities as fucked up as this?
Spill all.

A cage of male goats (Being pulled by a car, the cage had wheels on the bottom) rolled over my foot.

Actually didn't hurt that much.

I actually have had an experience like that before. What happened was I had just gotten food from my favorite local Mexican restaurant. My friends were with me and I had asked them to hold the food because I was on my bike. But they were complaining so much on the way back to my house that I decided that i was going to hold the food. Well I live on a street with a hill and on the way down my friends called me and turned around (bad mistake I know). What happened next was I hit a palm tree and flew of my bike, which landed on my back. While I was falling the food flew away, and while it was in the air it unwrapped and landed in the gutter.

When I got hit by a car I was pissed off that my glasses were broken. I didn't even know I was bleeding until the person who hit me pointed it out.

I was hit in the head with a marching cymbal. That was an interesting story to tell at school...

I was in a bus when it was hit by a car. The car was totaled. The bus? Minor damage at worst. Me? Pissed off because I had to waste the rest of the afternoon filling out a police report because the crash happened right underneath my seat. Good thing it was one of those little Japanese subcompacts and not, say, a Hummer H2. I could've gotten hurt!

When I was six, I was in a car accident, and the thing that pissed me off more than my (at the time) poor parents flipping over the nearly totaled car, or the fact that I had a concussion and my nose was bleeding was the fact that I couldn't find my FUCKING Beanie Baby.
It was a gift...
And then I found it under the front seat.

Another time, I had smashed face-first into a FUCKING coffee table and cut my head deep enough to show my skull, and, as we were pulling into the hospital lot for my surgery, I was promised cake and ice cream. I never got the ice cream.
I was livid. But the chocolate cake was damn fine cake.
I guess a cake is fine too.

That certainly is odd. What the hell.

I can some it up in three words

I am Greek.

Once I was driving a bus and went around a corner too fast, I plowed straight through the barrier and hit some kid.
He seemed more bothered about his sandwich than anything though.

Turnabout is fair play. *slow clap*

I was playing in a box I fell down hit my head on a table I was bleeding a lot then I was scared to see if the box was damaged.

I fell off a cliff, twice. Different cliffs, mind you.

Bounced 30-40 feet down and landed on my head/neck. Which was nice.

I never had an experience like that, but my mom had a remarkably similar experience. You see, she was hit by a DPW truck last year, broke a couple of her ribs, her collarbone, and sheared her olfactory nerve. She no longer has a sense of smell.

 

[Simalacrum]

well one time I hit my head really hard on this metal bar at school... my friends came up to me and asked if I was ok, and, holding my head, I said "I'm ok, I don't think its bleeding..." took my hand off and then went "oh, wait, it is".

My friends went into total panic but I found the whole thing absolutely hysterical! I then proceeded to politely ask my rather bewildered teacher (I guess he didn't expect person who's gushing blood out of their head to consider politeness) whether I could leave the lesson, and was perfectly pleasant to everyone I passed as I made my way to the medical centre.

I once ran over my OWN foot with a electric pallet jack during a shift at work.

I haven't been in such a situation. But when I saw the thread title I was actually really worried that it would turn out to be something serious, like you were in hospital on life support or something. Ah well, hope you're doing alright and that you weren't too badly damaged. And that you managed to get another Subway (preferably from someone else in sympathy ).

Well for weird accidents i broke my arm by tripping over a cooler while playing follow the leader. I was 4 at the time so my priorities where pretty straight.... ahhhhhh.
