    Default Tales of Carnage

    When you walk into the office with a gash on your face, and someone asks you what happened ... what do you tell them?

    "I saved a falling cat by catching it with my face ..."

    "I was auditioning for the next Batman movie ..."

    "We were playing Russian Roulette with switchblades ..."

    Got a good one you can share?

    So far no gashes. But when I do, I'm going to claim I have a second job as a private detective and I got too close to a case, ala "China Town"

    I think most people would believe the Switchblade Roulette more than an "outdated mini-sword"

    No noteworthy gashes yet, and hopefully never will, but my answer would be "cut myself with a straight razor". Why hide it?

    Yep, when I did it I just owned up to the cut..!

    I got some funny looks and a few questions! I actually had to bring one into work once as I was mailing it on somewhere else and a few people came and had a look.

    Cue choruses of "You dont actually SHAVE with that do you?"

    "Yep" says I..! :-)

    I love that, people are like "You're shavinge with what?". Then the obligatory don't cut your face off. I can't make anyone understand the goodness.

    Ditto, I love seeing people's reactions when you tell them you shave with a straight razor...now if I could just figure out a way to have that work for me when trying to meet girls...

    What's wrong with the truth, "I cut myself shaving."?
