So has this been the worse day you can remember ever?

Question

10 points goes to the person who can make me believe they haven't made it up or if they have made it up - it makes me laugh!

You know, that kind of day where you got up in the morning and it just went down hill from there - so by the time you got to the end of the day, you thought what else can go wrong? And something else did and you dared not wonder any longer!

Why am I asking this? Well, most of my days are like that - today being no exception - I won't bore you with the details, suffice to say it can be summed up by saying it was a day where other people didn't do their jobs properly - have you had a day like that? Are you now finally at that part of the day where you're able to do what some of the people have descibed in this:-

- one of my other questions?

I wish Y/A would have a competion for Best Answers - or do they already? What's this top Contributor mularky all about then?

I'm getting so fed up with having to translate everything from an unnecessary multi-syllabic, multi-word phrase into simple English - when are these americans ever going to learn 'less is more' for example take answer 1) 'down comforter' I think actually tranlates into duvet - that's one word as apposed to an unneccesary two words and 4 syllables all because they have a problem with french. And what pray is a 'push pin' is that a drawing pin, a tack, a nail what on earth does this little gem mean - I suppose after posting that answer she'll need to use the 'rest room' or the 'bathroom' as apposed to the toilet or lavatory - do you see the pattern emerging here - no wonder so many countries throughout the world hold this country in such contempt!

Ummmm! I obviously need to start putting qualifications on this questions - probably should do it with all my questions - ohhhh the various exempt catagories get so uptight about it though - here goes:-

The people in the folllowing catagories need not answer as this is question is not intended for them:

1) Women going through Child Birth
2) Junkies
3) People using american pigeon-lazy-english

Yes I know I made a spelling mistake and a grammatical error - try to resist the temptation to tell me will you ? I'm not interested.

Oh nearly forgot and

Answer 1

No, that day was October 4, 2004. Called to do jury duty. Collapsed during the questioning. Pain. Immediate transfer to medical facility. Tests. Surgery. Toxin build up from the tumors would have killed me in approximately 12 hours. The horrified look on my son's face at the prognosis.

As a side note: Made the bailiff laugh, "So this is what it takes to get you to notice me."

My days have been pretty good since then. Some rough ones, but all generally better than that one LOL

Answer 2

I woke up this morning in a bit of a predicament. I was groggy, as usual. I had no motor coordination, as usual. I had to pee really badly, as usual. And my hands were completely, one hundred percent asleep. No feeling at all. None.

I'd apparently been sleeping on my arms for most of the night. From the elbows down, it's like I wasn't even there. There were two fat-fingered lumps of limb down there, and I had no control over them.

Did I mention that I had to pee? Really badly?

I managed to wiggle myself off the bed and shuffled to the bathroom. I was afraid to sit on the toilet to pee, for fear I might not have use of my arms to push myself back up afterward.

Also, because I have a penis. Someone might have seen me there. Yeek!

Negotiating a path through the peeing hole in my boxers took a bit of doing. Without going into too much detail, let's just say it involved some swaying, some shimmying, and more than a little gyrating. My local Elvis impersonators' union would've been proud.

Eventually, I managed to assume the position. With my hands still abstaining from participation, I stood facing the open toilet bowl with a clear path, a full bladder, and a heart full of hope. I pointed myself at the water, told my fingers to cross themselves -- which they didn't -- and let loose.

What followed felt a little like surfing, or maybe skateboarding. With nothing to hold onto for balance, I had to make tiny and constant adjustments at the hips, knees, and shoulders.
One large miscalculation -- or god forbid, a sneeze -- and I'd be dry cleaning the drapes, repainting the ceiling, or buying new toothbrushes. I tried very hard not to think about ground pepper or direct sunlight for the duration of the procedure.

Luckily, I had a clear sight line down to the old unmentionables, so I could see what I was doing. I may be a 'fat old man', but I'm not that fat. I can still visually confirm how things are progressing when I'm peeing, if need be. Unlike, say, John Goodman, for instance. I bet he hasn't seen himself pee in years. For all he knows, there's a midget down there siphoning urine out of his bladder with a turkey baster and shooting it into the bowl.

(Yes, I agree it's unlikely. But he can't possibly know for sure. Not without a lot of free time and a complicated series of carefully placed mirrors. I'm just saying.)

I'm happy to report that my handless bodily control was nothing short of impeccable. By the time I could feel my arms again, I had finished without spilling a drop, and had even flushed the toilet.

Don't ask me how I flushed. It's not my proudest moment, and I nearly threw out a hip.

And now I still have to buy new toothbrushes. Dammit

Answer 3

Well, today wasn't completely awful. Yesterday was though. It seemed like EVERYONE was on a mission to annoy me. The most random things happened just to s h i t me off. Example A, my little sister jumped on my down comforter and blew a hole out the bottom and the feathers went flying everywhere, i swear that would ONLY happen to me, just my luck. So i tried to sew the hole in the blanket and kept stabbing myself with the needle. I stepped on a push pin and got it stuck in my foot. I smacked my face on a 2X4 at home depot. I just...am so glad today is here and tomorrow is gone, hang in there kiddo. :]

Answer 4

You think your days are awful...

My worst day ever was also the best day ever. My worst day was of course preceded by many many bad days, but that day in particular, was horrible. I was a drug addict (pot, amphetamines and cocaine, amphetamines being way cheaper than coke) for years. That lead to a major depressive episode. One day I got up, and wanted to die. I'd wanted to die for quite a while, but I'd decided that That day was THE day. I told my boyfriend that if he really loved me, he would help me kill myself. And he did the right thing... He called an ambulance that took me to a hospital with a psychiatric department. When I saw the police officers, I was relieved.

As soon as they started taking care of me at the hospital, I felt better already. The truth is: I never wanted to die, I wanted to get better. I have been off drugs and alcohol for two years (March 10).

This is why, my worse day turned out to be the day I saved my life. Trust me: after being through that, I don't consider ANY day a bad day. I cherish life every day, with every challenges it brings.

Answer 5

Honey, you have no idea. I had a big speech the day this happened. I was about 8. I woke up late, I didn't get breakfast and that day I had P.E. Our gym teacher was so stricked that day so he told me to run around the gym 10 times. Then after I'm done with that I am super sweaty. But the next thing I had to do was go to lunch. i walked up to the lunch lady and she took my card. I had absolutely no money on there. So I didn't have lunch. I called home, my mom answered I said why r u home. She said she quit her job. I asked her for money she said use the 5 cents in your pocket. She knew that because that day when she quit her job she knew I would owe money so she put 5 cents in. I didn't eat lunch. That day I didn't have recess because my class was too loud during lunch. But it wasn't fair because I didn't eat lunch. After recess we had the accembly. So I had to go on stage hungry. I said " fellow students" after that I found myself at the hospital. To know that when I went home everything was going to be alright. But NO!!! it wasn't alright. We came back home and stuff was gone. We didn't pay our bills. We had no water nothing. But the next day the water was on again because our family saved up and payed our bills. So from that day on we have to be extra careful.
