When will kids learn not to play Frogger out on the streets? Play it in a dark building, away from sunlight, where a spindly little dark-haired dude with a ponytail and a pedo-stache exchanges your cash for quarters--You know, where it's safe.

Seriously sucks about the hand, man. I'd probably rather be put down than lose mobility in my extremities.
Hope it doesn't take too long healing.

I also thought you were dead. It's because Dsh's thread made us all paranoid, but also because you referred to yourself in the third person in the thread title. It just screams "I'm a friend logged in under this guy's name to deliver you some bad news. Get ready!"

I hope you recover well!

Yeah, that thread title scared me as well. Glad you are okay for the most part.

How in the heck do you get your hand run over by a car? Did you have your hand on the pavement in a parking lot for some reason? How much beer was involved?

Honestly when I first saw this thread I didn't pay any attention to what sub-forum it was in so my first thought was that it was just another one of those humorous B/S/T thread titles (since people like to use those around here).

I would hope that if someone were posting a thread to announce the death of a fellow forum member they would be a little more considerate/respectful than to post something like "so-and-so just got hit by a car" as the title. So maybe that's why the thought didn't even cross my mind.

For a second I thought you might be dead, too. Or if not dead than at least horrifically injured to the point were someone felt the need to inform us of it.

Glad you're okay though, and the injuries are relatively minor. Get well soon.

Since everyone is disappointed you're not dead, I volunteer to correct things.

Here's to a quick and painless recovery! Though, like everyone else, I'm wondering how you got your hand run over? Was someone trying to play Frogger, but couldn't find the game? Cause I don't think that could've happened any other way.
