Ow!

[bjarvis]

While getting out of bed this morning, I propped myself up with my right arm and apparently leaned too sharply on my hand & wrist. I now have a painful sprain that is making any primate opposable-thumb tool usage very, very painful.

Damn opposable thumbs.

So much for wanking.

He can use the other hand and it'll feel like somebody else for a change.

Mebbe. I can't use my left hand for that a-tall.

When I broke my left elbow, the thing I was most grateful for was that it wasn't my right, otherwise I would have been really hard up.

Though I'm told some people are ambidextrous this way....

I can confirm that indeed, some people are ambidextrous that way. I'm one of them (and typically I'm righthanded except I'm lefthanded for that).

Pshaw; everyone knows sex stops after marriage.

Clearly you need a new set of friends because we're all thinking the same thing. :-)

[paigemom.livejournal.com]

No, actually my first thought was, "You just couldn't take our word for it that that position was impossible?"

[kent4str.livejournal.com]

Tee-hee! That's what I thought, too!

A bicycle?

I remember oh-so long ago when this blog was "g" rated... *sigh*

[bendoutdoors.livejournal.com]

After Cleveland I don't think I'll ever consider you "g" rated (based on my OBSERVATIONS of what went on :-) ).

[airporter.livejournal.com]

Hang on: you were G-rated once?

[trawnapanda.livejournal.com]

but the key question (from yet another friend whose first thought was of self-abuse) is:

was it your jackoff hand that got ysprainen?

salacious enquiring minds need to know

[excessor.livejournal.com]

And no more answering the phone.

I thought of the selfsame cartoon. And I also thought, well, yeah, opposable thumbs are probably responsible for most of humanity's ills.

[trawnapanda.livejournal.com]

does that mean that bjarvis, at present without opposable thumb, can be The Saviour Of Humanity From All That Ails It?

that should keep him busy and away from the self-abuse

[I understand that pandas have not one but two opposable digits per front paw. so how come humans dominate and pandas just sit around munching bamboo and looking cute? one of life's puzzlements]

[jss]

Who's happier in general: Humans or pandas?

Who's happier in general: Humans or pandas?

that's another of life's puzzlements.

there are times I'm tempted to retreat to a corner and munch bamboo, i must tell you

[jss]

I got yer bamboo right here.

[trawnapanda.livejournal.com]

I'll be over as soon as I can, to snack on bamboo and, er, use my opposeable thumbs on you

[jss]

Woot!
