Well, I had a 1:00 tee time today, and was trying to get fresh guacamole made for a party here later tonight. I got the avocados, tomatoes, red onion, and cilantro all cut up (albeit rushed) with no problems.
... On comes the pepper. I was running super late and try to blow through it. It's only a tiny, harmless pepper, right? Well, in my sloppy cutting with my ridiculously sharp Santoku knife, I sliced some of my damn fingernail clean off. This thing almost bled like I sliced my jugular. Amazing. Well, I was late for my tee time, and got crushed in the round... And ruined my khakis with blood stains.
Anywho, no pics, no slice. These are from hours later, post shower...

But I usually try to keep my fingers out of the way

Two are from my broken fingers in December '07, and the other is from tearing one off about 15 years ago. That ones starting to look a bit more normal now, though. Regardless, good luck w/ the healing.

I think this thread is a veiled attempt to brag about the fact that you have friends and that you're gonna have a party so you can look cool. The finger is just a ploy to give you a goto topic when you're failing with the ladies.  |

Question 1) Which one of these things is not like the others?
The first two items were things that cut or slice, NOT things every fifth TBer needs advice to get.
Mike
EDIT: Uh, sorry about the finger, Eric. If you plan on showing that to a girl, make sure you don't mention that you suffered it while making guacamole.

It takes a long time cutting things, but they're great for screwing things.
Eric, You might also want to reassure her that you have nine other fingers at her disposal that are free of festering sores. That usually gets em all hot and bothered.
