Pain in collecting

[cplhicks]

Only emotional pain.

My girlfriend broke up with me because she said she couldn't date a guy who collects barbies. She said it was creepy

I took it like a man though and cried for 3 hours and than bought a bunch of crap on ebay.

There was this time once while unboxing a statue the flaps of the art box were so toit, they cut the area above the cuticle on my fingers. And that hurts.

I find it odd that I heal instantly, is this normal?

If I think I'm going to hurt my hands I put on my thick leather motorcycle gloves before working on something lol. These ones still allow me to have some dexterity.

try using karate chops instead of a chain saw.......

I do.

 

[barryo]

I do.

wrap your hands with "angry birds" band aids then scream at the trees......"COME AT ME YOU STICK *** MOTHER ****ERS:"...(you really have to mean it) ..........they will bow to your will & jump in your fire pit.......

And then I can get hurt? You don't know how much of a relief that is. I felt so trapped before. Thanks barry.

I once tried to put a 1/6 head back and despite already heating it up, it won't go in and ended up busting my thumb and my fingernail was bleeding from the inside.

Other than than I just suffer the normal fatigue that comes from painting a headsculpt all day. I tend to get so tired and feeling sick the next day. I think it's because the fumes from the primer/sealant as I don't wear a mask.

When I was a kid I was slicing off the top of a green plastic army mans foot with a pocket knife in the car while my mom went into the bank. I was busy whittling away at this thing and when I was slicing the foot I also sliced into my index finger. I bled all over the seat of the car and she freaked out when she came back. She took me to the hospital and I got stitches. It was my first bash injury. I was trying to make the army man look like the Creature from the Black Lagoon.

I get cut constantly by Exacto knives.

getting super glue on your fingers is awful too. And using paint remover gets you high....

the pains of customizing....

 

[averagejo]

That commercial is so absurd its hilarious!

Who yells like that??? His qtips must have glass shards on the ends instead of cotton.

Lots of badass people in this thread; getting cut by knives, hurting their fingers, gluing their fingers, bleeding profusely. And then somehow, managing to stay alive, to tell their war stories about the "pains of collecting". You are the pinnacle of heroism in the world. Yes................................

 

[Solidus]

Such pain, such unimaginable torment. But, not for the brave masochists of SSF. No. You must endure the pains of collecting, to tell these stories to your seed, and your seed's seed. May they never forget.

 

[fosing]

oh....how can i forget.

excruciating pain from my bleeding wallet.

While you became a creature from the Red Lagoon

getting super glue on your fingers is awful too. And using paint remover gets you high....

Haven't you tried to hot water-cold water method?

Yeah. I want to be able to tell my collecting stories to my seed and my seed's seed. I want to be able to interrupt them, irritate them by saying 'Those were the real days' everytime they bring up the topic

Sigh....no seed or seed's seed in this lifetime though.

Never hurt myself opening a collectible. I must be one of the lucky ones
