I got two, both equally fucking ridiculous
1.) I cut myself on the edge of a crab shell when eating snow crab legs at a Red Lobster, most pretentious injury EVER
2.) One time I did one of those "test of strength" carnival games, I was like 13, and I guess this one was made for people a bit younger than me, long story short, the rubber hammer rebounded off the target and flung back straight into my face. ow...
That's nice Dan, but it's accidents and not really your fault. Dumb would be if you hurt yourself by doing something that would clearly put you in pain, yet you do it anyways. Like This:
I got no sense of balance. None! I don't know the cause. It could be:
Ears Problem, Bad Eyesight, The fact that i'm overweight, Irreparably clumsy. The point is, i either walk or take the car. But when i was 15, one of my friend made his mission to turn me into a "Sk8erboy". It didn't work out. At. All. After a few falls, he decide that maybe the Surfer trick would do the trick. To do this, we went to a 81 degree hill near home and he show me what to do. "When you build enough speed, slowly stand up." I couldn't. The asphalt, at this point, was turning right and since i was going straight to the tree line. I put the brake... with my bare-hand and didn't pull them up until i was completely stopped. I rip the first of the three layers of skin on them that day.
My long lost twin is found at last! lol.
Anyway, honestly those are probably the dumbest injuries I have, I'm a pretty careful person, I just thought of some more that might fit though.
1.) You know those wrist pads that people put in front of their keyboards for wrist support? Turns out they're pretty important, I got tendinitis in BOTH of my wrists one summer from playing WoW (sad I know, but I was 15, so don't give me that "did you have NO life!? crap, I still hung out with friends, and most of them were also playing)
2.) One time when I was like 10, I fell forward off of my bike (no idea how that happened) and hit the pavement hard, face first. I ended up in prompt care (it was a Sunday I think), my arms were scraped pretty bad, but interestingly enough, my face was fine except for a SINGLE vertical scratch from the bottom of my nose to the top of my upper lip, perfectly centered between my nostrils, amazingly, my nose didn't have a single cut, nor my chin, to this day I wonder how exactly my face got cut ONLY there, I imagine it had to be from something really unlikely, like a perfectly shaped pebble on the ground when I landed or something. The point is, they glued it shut and told me not to remove the glue for a week. The minute the doctor turned her back, literally before even leaving the examination room RIIIIIIP I tore that shit right off. It was annoying me, and I'd do it again

I have a pretty funny looking (and avoidable) unique looking scar there now, I like it.
Whew, that last one was long, sorry.
I may not have too many great "I hurt myself in stupid ways" stories, but if you want to hear a dentist horror story or a surgery horror story (it was a weird surgery too.... I had this floating bump under the skin on my left arm that I could move around, it was cool, I miss that bump

lol) I could make anyone cringe.
