Doctor, it hurts when I do this…

Posted July 22, 2008 11:55 AM by mavella

My family doctor - you might have heard of him, Dr. Vinnie Boombatz III - is a pretty practical guy. He's got some quick advice to avoid pain on a lot of topics.

  • If your shoulder hurts when you raise your arm and then twist it behind your head while trying to scratch the opposite armpit, then don't do that (for at least two reasons).
  • If you drive through the Starbucks, drink it while driving and spill the hot coffee in your lap when you hit a pothole, you're gonna be burned worse than a Visigoth storming a castle and catching the hot oil downpour. Don't do that.
  • If you stick your head out at the train station to see if the train is coming, and the train is just arriving and hits you, it's gonna hurt. Don't do that.
  • If you take that ball point pen on your desk and jam it in your eye, it's not only gonna hurt, but you're not gonna be able to see real well. Don't ever do that.

You get the point. There are a lot of ways to misuse anything - like RFID - and possibly have bad things happen.
