‘The reason for going to the ER wasn’t terribly cringey, but right before I left at like 4:30am, we let our dog out. She got sprayed by a skunk. We brought her back inside but couldn’t deal with her because I had to go to the ER. I go to the ER smelling like fresh skunk spray. I was in and out of that hospital in like 2 hours; I’ve never been seen and released more expeditiously.’

‘ER RN here. I had to go to my workplace because the golden doodle I was babysitting bit my ass cheek because I wouldn’t give her the chicken sandwich I was eating. Needed stitches and a tetanus. Was really awkward. Shout out to the resident I still work with regularly who was very respectful sewing up my butt.’

‘Not me but my middle school PE coach. He told me to throw the baseball as hard as I could, I wouldn’t hurt anyone and to just go for it. So I did!

I ended up breaking his nose and he had to leave school early to go to the emergency room.’
