Week. Autocorrect sucks at times

Did the family go out for Chinese food. Did you really shoot your eyes with a red rider beebee gun? Just drink more ovaltine.

seriously was the turkey saved by the 3 second rule ?

>You're going to have a mark for at least a mark.

Did you mean a week? Or a month?

I actually tore my frenulum (banjo string) and it bled everywhere. Went to the ER and they told me the exact same thing. Re-tore it weeks later after it “healed” and got annoyed so I got a circumcision as an adult to remove the foreskin and banjo string. Best decision I’ve made in a while.

Especially not one with a broken mother

He got lucky. Sometimes the frenulum may snap and scar over causing it to shorten and actually become easier to re-tear it. Other times it makes it easier for the movement of the foreskin.

Well it depends. I was mostly joking but at the same time I wasn’t.

You’re going to have a mark for at least a mark. Everyone I’ve seen with a black eye had never fully healed in a few days

Are you sure? I was reading that a normal black eye only takes like a week to heal up and the burn is very minor, didn't even blister.

Let’s not be hyperbolic here. I doubt that the relationship is over. Any parent knows that, no matter how much your child hurts you, you always love them unconditionally. Especially since kids hurt their parents all the time, it’s inevitable.

I also doubt that he threw his only chance at getting help. I’m pretty sure his mother would help him get help in a heartbeat if he asked.

He’s still 16

So what did you do wrong again?

They basically gave you a hug you didn’t do anything wrong by being friendly. If you’re worried about it just delete the picture and press onward.

You didn’t win, her baby is severely depressed.

I don’t think this is a big deal at all. I don’t even think you’ve done anything wrong.

Fair enough. I may see about getting it looked at by a doctor. I've never had a black eye before though so I don't know what to expect. Do you think it's going to get any worse?

Wrapping them up was probably force of habit. It's how she stores hers.

For just a bruise, that thing is really dark! And so close to your actual eyeball, you could have been hurt a lot worse so I suppose it's not as bad as it could have been. It's just really striking, that's all, and your description of the event is vivid enough that when people read it they can imagine themselves going through that same pain.

I cant stop la-la-laughing. Thank you for sharing this.

I forgive you

Fair enough, I figured it was juts a bruise but others seem to think it was more than that. Do you?

Is it really that bad? I guess I just figured it was a run of the mill black eye?

Lol, that it honestly probably the best way to explain my eye to the patrons who will inevitably be curious.

"Luckily no one was seriously hurt."

Um, I would consider that seriously hurt though. Ouch.
