A funny story

Okay, so my brother-in-law was throwing a BBQ last weekend. Everything was going very nice, we had some thick steaks on the grill, music was going, it was a good time. It was the kind of summer day that you look back on in your old age that just makes you grin.
So my brother in law was carving up some more steaks for the next batch. He was working outside on a table set up next to the grill, and he notices a yellowjacket flying by. It was nearing dusk, so it seemed strange for this fellow to still be out. Well, it must have been a very annoying bug because my brother in law swat at it with the knife he was using. Next thing you know, he had stabbed it right through his arm! A good 3" of an 8" chef knife coming out the other side! The blade slipped right between his radius and his ulna. A little farther forward, and he never would have worried about carpol tunnels again (becasue he would have halfed them.) So we ended up driving him to the ER, but not before getting those meats of the BBQ. Oh, that was delicious.
I suppose the moral of the story is: Throw away your chef knives and buy a nice, safe, santoku.

OK, I'm guessing some type of alcohol was involved.. :D
Seriously, hope he's OK.

And the funny part is???? :confused:
COME ON!! HE PUT A KNIFE THROGH HIS ARM!! THAT'S COMEDIC GOLD!! Any way, it was such a clean cut, and so well placed, that the doctors pretty much just put a bandaid on and sent him home. He could have had stitches, but he doesn't like the idea of neeldes so he passed. He'll be okay though; he's a trooper.

I guess it's a GOOD thing he didn't have a gun in his hand while that bee was flying around.:eek:.
 
Glockman you got me on the floor LOL. Especially a Glock!! I am still looking for the funny part. :barf:
 
FYI: Both myself and my girlfriend thought it was funny!

Only funny part I've found so far is that the man put a knife through his arm but he was afraid of a needle...
 
Well, I thought it was funny at least.
Maybe this is why sheeple should not be allowed to own knives. He was alwasy scolding me, saying it was dangerous for me to carry around a pocket folder. But then if this is how he normally acts with a knife, then I think can I see where he's coming from.
 
I believe it was Mel Brooks that said

"Tragedy is when I cut my finger. Comedy is when you fall down a manhole and die."
 
It's funny for the same reason Judge Judy is. It's not happening to me.
