I'm

MegaBandNerd: Talk to me, I had a rough day.
Y: I've been drinking since 9 in the bloody morning, you want to talk rough?
MegaBandNerd: First off, I brought my closest sister (14) along with me and my friends to go ATVing.
MegaBandNerd: About two hours into it, a friend of mine and my sister had gone off to ATV. We only had two, so we took turns.
MegaBandNerd: My friend comes back. She says my sister flipped her ATV.
Y: =-O
Y: She ok?
MegaBandNerd: So, she's freaking out and looks pale.
MegaBandNerd: I'll get to it.
MegaBandNerd: We jump into the truck quickly and drive down where she says she is.
MegaBandNerd: The -blam!- -blam!- driver didn't go all the way to her and stopped about a quarter of a mile away.
MegaBandNerd: He didn't want to get his car scratched.
MegaBandNerd: I climb out and sprint down. Here's what had happened:
MegaBandNerd: She was barreling along this dirt road at 40 mhp. She hit a pothole, lost control, and her ATV flipped over her and between a fence of barbed wire.
MegaBandNerd: I got there and she was lying on her back, I had to push the ATV off, she was screaming.
Y: Bad place to bee.
MegaBandNerd: Basically, the top part of her skin on her left leg was gone.
MegaBandNerd: It was a pool of blood, with about two centermeters of a flesh wall.
Y: Yuck.. I've see a kids face get peeled off by a pitching machine.
MegaBandNerd: Her leg had hit a wooden post and splintered it.
Y: Broken right?
MegaBandNerd: Hit an artery in her leg. I go into cold mode, became very mechanical.
MegaBandNerd: Yes, the bone was sticking out. Broke her femer and hip.
MegaBandNerd: She's going into shock, bleeding like -blam!-, and we're in the middle of the -blam!- desert.
MegaBandNerd: About two miles off the freeway.
MegaBandNerd: 20 miles from Tucson.
MegaBandNerd: Basically nowhere. I take off my shirt and use it to put pressure on the wound.
MegaBandNerd: By this time the girl who was with her showed up.
MegaBandNerd: My sister asked me, "Am I going to be ok?" I told her, totally indifferently, "Yes. There's not a lot of bleeding, you didn't hit an artery. You'll be fine."
MegaBandNerd: Seemed to comfort her.
MegaBandNerd: Then the idiot -blam!- started running her mouth. "Oh my god... her bone's sticking out!"
MegaBandNerd: "My God she won't stop bleeding! She's looking pale. Is she going to die? She is isn't she?"
MegaBandNerd: There goes calming my sister down, she began to cry and scream again.
MegaBandNerd: I got up and decked the girl.
Y: People are stupid.
MegaBandNerd: She vomited on the sand.
MegaBandNerd: And passed out.
MegaBandNerd: So now I start yelling for someone to call an ambulace.
MegaBandNerd: "Uh... we left our phone back at the camp site."
MegaBandNerd: Idiots. -blam!- idiots. They forgot their phones.
MegaBandNerd: I was the only one composed.
MegaBandNerd: They drove back, got it, and thank goodness - we got service.
MegaBandNerd: I went through the stuff I learned in training classes: "Can you feel it when I squeeze your toes? What about when I touch your hand? Can you wiggle them for me? Keep looking straight up, do not move."
MegaBandNerd: Ambulance came about 25 minutes later. My friends all chickened out, left me, scared by gore.
MegaBandNerd: Cowards.
Y: -blam!-.
MegaBandNerd: Ambulance comes, I help her onto the truck with the paramedics after they put her on the board.
MegaBandNerd: "Are you her boyfriend?"
MegaBandNerd: "Brother."
MegaBandNerd: "Ah, good. Are you 18."
MegaBandNerd: "Yes."
MegaBandNerd: A friend of mine says, "No, you're 17!"
MegaBandNerd: Great you -blam!- moron.
MegaBandNerd: I can't go with her now. I have to be 18.
Y: What are friends for...
MegaBandNerd: Lets just say she's fine now. She's at home, -blam!- up on morphine, getting a perscription for vikadin. She had 60 stitches and is now in a cast.
Y: And you're stuck with a nice bill.
MegaBandNerd: I have never been more furious at people.
MegaBandNerd: No, no bill, medical -blam!- covered it.
Y: That's good.
MegaBandNerd: If I had time I would have beaten the -blam!- out of each one of them.
Y: Lesson bat?
MegaBandNerd: If they ever call me or try to talk to me again they're going to get a side of me people rarely see. I have been livid all day.
MegaBandNerd: And I will not forgive that.
Y: Understandable.
Y: Well this is just a -blam!- day for everyone isn't it?
MegaBandNerd: It's been a -blam!- -blam!- week. And I thought today would be great.
MegaBandNerd: -blam!- no. And my sister's morphine wears off in 6 hours.
MegaBandNerd: Means back to pain. I'm going to make myself some coffee. It's going to be a long couple days.
Y: Nothing ever goes right when you want it too.

I don't know. Parents showed up at the hospital and took care of it, I just sat in with my sister when I got there. She and I are close, closer than she is with my mom - besides, my mom couldn't stop -blam!- crying. Great way to comfort a little girl, sit above her and weep. How selfish.

Well, you can't get mad at your mom, but my mother, like most moms, would probably do the same. Its gotta be hard for them to watch their child sitting there injured, and they can't do anything, except cry for them.

You suggest...

... that I play Halo...

As a matter of fact, add you and Zero to the people I want to stab - in the leg - with a wooden fence post. I want to break your femers. I want to break your hips. Then as you start to bleed to death, in pain, I'll be sure to tell you how bad it looks. I'll then suggest playing Halo as a pour salt into your wounds.

Holy -blam!-. That's brutal. Hopefully your sister will make a full recovery. For what it's worth, I wish you both the best.

P.S. I meant brutal in terms of your associates' actions in response to the situation.

oneindustriesusa, I suggest you think before you post on a sensitive subject. Remember, use that goop between your ears.

Unfortunately, in some people that goop drains out as earwax.

You don't get on a sensitive subject and just suggest playing videogames. It doesn't work like that. Playing videogames is probably the furthest thing from Obbi's mind right now.

Whether or not you meant it to sound sincere, to Obbi it obviously didn't come across that way. When you're speaking on a sensitive topic you just need to think a little more about how what you say may be interpreted by others, as well as the point you're trying to get across.

Any respect you have sure didn't shine through in your first post. And, by the way, after the situation he was in it's not exactly unusual for one to be angry, especially after the actions of the other people there (not sure if friends is the right word). I know I'd be pissed if my little sister was in the hospital, -blam!- up and on morphine, and somebody was making jokes about it (or saying stuff that sounded like jokes). One's actions define who they are. Yours thus far sure don't imply a great deal of respect for others.
