Why are men so stupid?!!
My OH is well known for the idiotic things he does, like the time he was using a high speed polisher on a chrome car part and decided to lick it to see how hot it was. It was VERY hot!!
Well last night, he pulled another classic. He had a splinter in the sole of his foot. Now most sane people would use tweezers or even a needle to try and remove it. Not him, he used a blade from a stanley knife. And slipped!! 
So now, not only does he (still!) have a splinter but now has a rather atrractive gash across the back of his foot. Oh well, another scar to add to the collection!

Mine was in hospital on a drip last week, he got blood poisoning, after leaving a bit of metal stuck in his arm, which he had proudly been showing off (with a magnet) to his little nephews the week before!

Dave has never let me live that one down although I never let him forget the fact that he jammed some sharp tools through his work bench at a show, so they were safe and not going to injure anyone, then he put his hand under the bench. He needed to go to hospital for that, which I didn't, so I always tell him he is more foolish than me!
