Safety topic is covered though. They’re always better when they’re personal.

Many years ago, I used to deliver compressed gas cylinders. At one stop, they customer had put a large hose across the opening on the facility pad where the cylinders go, so I would grab the top at the base of the cylinder cap and sort of hoist it over against my leg. The first few went fine, then there was one where the cylinder cap was not on tight, so I managed to pull the cap of and - at high speed - drive it into my right eye. I had the wherewithal to grab the (now capless) cylinder before it fell and turned into a missile. As I got it steadied, I started to feel the blood running down my face. Had a black eye for about a week, I think...

Ouch sorry about that. Make sure you ice it to remove some of the swelling.
I hope you've spare glasses to use until you get the damaged ones repaired.

Similar but tree branch to the eyebrow. I was trying to remove an unwanted plant and wasn’t paying enough attention.

NOPE. Thankfully I found the lens from these and I think I can reassemble them. They’re just missing a bit of paint now.

Damn, ouch....hope your vision isn’t too bad that you can survive without glasses for awhile....and also that they aren’t expensive, or you can fix ‘em.
As for the black eye, you’re now obligated to make up the most amazing over the top story about how it happened to tell your coworkers. :P

my boss told me a story that he was on a small ladder trying to remove a vine from a tree. the vine snapped and he fell backwards flat on his back. He was fine, went to roll voer to push himself up and saw that he landed just inches from a metal rake with the teeth pointing up, which had he landed a few inches over would have impaled his head

Fingers crossed.
A bit of paint missing is fine, shows you've been grafting.

I need about 27 right now. I waited 2 hours for food and it turns out they lost our order. Im beyond pissed. So I figured low rent solution, Ill go to Taco Bell. The line of cars is wrapped around the parking lot and into the road.
Im settling for Burger King because its that or starve.

The close calls are sometimes worse for your confidence than the actual hits. This doesn’t really feel too bad except for the swollen part being visible in my periphery. Glad it happened while I was holding clippers and not a chain saw though...so now I’m going to procrastinate getting rid of the rest of this damn tree for even longer.

I think I’m going to tell the project site it was a mountain bike accident, because I’ve done the same thing on a bike. It’s just easier to explain!

yea, but i think in this case, metal spikes going into his skull would probably have been worse. I’ve had some close calls on my mountain bike, and yea, it makes he hold back for a while after that.

A mountain bike accident...
where you were chasing the mythical Yeti in the middle of a hail storm while BEING
chased by escaped tigers on motorcycles
that ended in an epic sword dual on top of a cinematically stereotypical clifftop where,
in the end,
you defeated the tigers and were fighting the yeti one-on-one where he
had you pinned on the edge, everything looked bleak and he
punched you in the face (
giving you the black eye)
but you did some sort of cinematically stereotypical cunning move, said something dramatic and
cool while putting on sunglasses with explosions in the background
and then he fell to his doom....?
...right?

I got a mild black eye yesterday, from getting head-butted by my 5-year old.

O OOF I remember how much those hurt from when my little brother was a kid. Their heads are made of concrete at that age and they just think it’s hilarious.
