I feel like a complete and utter bitch right now. I truly humiliated myself today

that is pretty gay but good on you for going anyway. I'm scared of hospitals and wish I wasn't. I stabbed myself through the face once but just cauterized it with a lighter instead of going.

You can't be too careful with those things anon, pretend to be a macho man and what you think is a booboo could have become something very serious.
Your health is the biggest prize of them all.

Sounds based but how did you stab yourself? Maybe there's something wrong with me but in that moment I felt more scared of explaining that my deformed finger was from cutting myself in a boring and mundane way than I was of actually being deformed.

At least being able to say you cauterized yourself is metal.

it was years ago I can't remember. I was taking something apart and prying at it with a knife and face way to close.
