    That one I know. After two days of whisky, I finally managed to overcome the pain enough to go the the dentist and have it pulled. My jaw was still a little sore for several weeks afterward. I was taking eight Myprodol at a time before having it out.

    And I guess that didnt help one bit. I tried various painkillers for mine (I was on a 36 hour trip to Austria), not even some thing that is just one notch below Morphine helped.

        That has got to be the most eloquent way of putting it I have heard :laugh: . I'll admit to never actually having read the article, but I assumed it was something like that.

          I once sat naked on a 74HC04 (a hex inverter for those unaware), it didn't hurt, but it did stick to my arse, and I was walking around for five minutes before finally understanding why my wife was wetting herself with laughter. It only hurt when I removed it!

              No, an electrical plug - 3 pin UK variety. I wonder if other countries have similar health hazards attached to their electrical devices. I'm sure the dual rounded pins of a European plug are less painful.

              Yeah they don't hurt much, and most of them (if not all) are build so that it is very difficult to have the pins standing up, so the worst you get is you step on a blunt object.

                  A Lego brick, in the dark, at 3.00 am whilst going for a P. You can't even yell out, coz it will raise the house. Standing(Hopping) silently whilst whispering "F*!%" several times is the only way to dissipate the pain!

                                  I don't get that. I've had one before (it ended up in root canal) and it was completely painless... I had a lump appear in the gum which disappeared in a week. Although it did take 4 different dentists to pick which tooth to work on... My mother once had one on 4 teeth once and had no idea about it either... On the other hand, braces on your teeth are excruciating when they're first put on. I tried a number of painkillers and not one of them made a difference. Even drinking felt painful. Trying to play a piccolo with braces on your front teeth is a whole different experience though!

                                          Forget child birth, forget being kicked in the gentlemen zone, forget everything. Treading barefoot on an upturned plug beats them all....

                                          Wrong, wrong, wrong. You utter pansy. Stepping on a pile of spilled LEGO's hurts a hell of a lot worse.
