1st gym class

so 45 minutes into my first gym class and i'm already injured twice. wth, right? turns out i sprained my ankle really bad this afternoon *cries* it's swollen to about 4 times it's normal size. we were playing pickleball (for those of you who don't know what that is, it's a really gay racquet sport involving a wiffle ball, an oversized wooden pingpong racquet and a thigh high net and a gym floor).
so anyways, i'm a huge tennis player and so i'm used to the way the racquet moves and ball bounces, which consequently meant i kept misjudging the ball. so a shot comes, i lunge for it and severely roll my ankle cuz i had those athletic shoes with the cool "shocks" in back. it was totally numb for awhile but yeah i've had the sensation back for awhile now and it hurts like a mo-fo. talked to the school nurse and he's like oh yeah you should be perfectly fine at ski racing practice tonight. it didn't hurt toooo bad but as soon as i got home i was like holy shit! my ankle looks like this! >>>>

It's a Mountain Dew commercial!

Yeah I want that Dew..

Also.. Danielle you got :owned:

OMG i love pickleball! i was so good at it too. I could kick peoples ass's like crazy.

sorry about your foot, but pickleball still owns

We used to play a different form of pickleball.. instead of playing like any regular game we would through the ball at each other, and had teams of people, obviously and whoever got hurt less would win! :D

Sorry to hear it. Keep it iced and wrapped and you'll be fine.

Ugh I really want Mountain Dew. But can't have it. *curses diet*

fuck pickle ball. I always liked playing ultimate dodgeball.
I remember getting floor burns all the time in gym, those sons of bitches burned.

^^^ I loved dodgeball. My coach always sprayed this yellow shit on the floor burns that stung like a bitch. We played something like that in school but we used a rubber ball instead of a wiffleball. Nothin' like getting nailed with a rubber ball at 40 mph to ruin your day.

Haha I remember dodgeball, in P.E. they had these real soft balls and then they had like a select few rubber ones, and man those hurt real bad.. especially in the face.

lol, i always aimed for the face. Go big or go home.

its just a flesh wound
i've had worse.
common now, have at you!

WALK IT OFF!!!


Pickelball is the shit though, and it seems like dodgeball cannot be played in schools today, it's freakin' gay. Instead we have like...butterball or w/e it is so that's an easy way of pegging people too, but the foam balls...c'mon...


Oh, sorry for the ankle. Keep that baby iced.

Off Topic: you should seen the size of my hand after punching the outside of our garage, as hard as I could. The swelling was insane, but it's going down a lot and I've just iced it everynight when I go to bed, now it's just bruised like a mofo, and abrasions.:disappoin Sometimes I can be really stupid...but this was the cause of pissed drunkeness

ooh, time to steal danielle's fire and turn this into an injury thread!

broke my hand at an Anti Flag concert, fat crowd surfer... that shit swelled bigger than Opera on her bad days.

so i thought it was bad yesterday...then i woke up today :banghead: i'm going to the doctor in 2 hours so those bitches better give me crutches. took me about a minute and a half to drag myself about 20 ft from my bed down the hall to the bathroom. i'm so glad my house has 4 bathrooms and i don't have to go down any stairs..yet :( one thing is for sure tho..i fucked it up good this time. even tho i've never smoked, maybe i should get some of this :smokin: to get rid of the pain.

That sucks.. somehow I thought this was going to happen. Well goodluck :thumbsup:

Also smoking is never the way.. you'll end up like this guy:

i'm surrounded by mountain dew, chocolate cookies and chips/dip. mmm mmm the good thing about this whole deal is that i won't have to participate in gym class.
my teacher is the biggest douchebag. i had him last year and i got in a bunch of fights with him and i'm not the type of person to ever fight or talk back to a teacher. like last year i told him his class sucked so he made me teach some of it instead hehe.
this year i got yelled at and told i made a mistake because he thought my heart rate wasn't fast enough. uhh i'm sorry i'm in shape and i don't have a 140 bpm heartrate like the fat chick next to me after we only did pushups, situps and some jumping thing.

OUCH that looks like it hurt

Because you'll be too fat?

Bleedodge - rofl.

Qute - that sucks. Ankles are one of the worst things to do because it incapacitates you so much. I hope it gets better soon, try to keep ice on it to get rid of some of the swelling. I did my right ankle in a skiing accident a couple of years ago - bindings didn't release and my foot/boot/ski did a 180 degree rotation, ripping all ligaments clean off the bone and my ankle was swollen to the size of a large pineapple.

not to make you feel like a puss, but thats not much compared to what my mother is going through. In October, she was getting out of a car, and stepped into a ditch she didnt see. The broke her right heal in half and chipped another bone in her foot. She still cant walk on it, its still swollen, its still black. Shes had a cast, but they had to take it off because they wasnt using her leg enough and the bone structure was starting to deteriorate.

I really hate it for you danielle because I can sympathize with you on the ankle injury to a certain extent (because I've lived with it so long it doesn't bother me as much) I have about 10 percent cartlidge in my right ankle and my physical therapist tells me it's a miracle that I can even walk. I destroyed the cartlidge at an early age (around 8 or so due to a car wreck) and still till this day can't walk right and my ankle looks similar to yours everyday or on a great week at least twice a week but I can't remember a week since the wreck that my ankle has looked normal much less worked normal. I really hope your ankle gets better and if you need any ankle care advice PM me. (I'm not joking either) The worst part about my ankle troubles is that I can't do normal things like run at times I can jog for very short distances but walking is painful but I love to do it.

Off topic of this thread: Danielle if you've never smoked weed I could recommend it for something to add to you list of things to do later on down the line I could guarantee you'd enjoy it unless if you've never smoked cigarettes then you'll cough your head off, all I could tell you is pull in as much smoke as possible without coughing, inhale deeply and hold for a while, exhale, then repeat after you get your breath back.
