Attack of the Dispenser!


Ok. This is NOT funny, but yet SO funny at the same time :) I was working out by myself yesterday morning at the gym and here is what happened:
I walked passed the gabrage can by the paper towel dispenser and saw that someone had spit in the garbage and it was NASTY (sorry Shanda, I will leave HOW nasty it was out of this story just for you). So I was going to grab a lenghth of paper towel and cover it up so noone else had to experience the gut rench that I had when I saw it. (People, seriously... That is just wrong!) As I pulled the handel down a few times to have the paper towel start to come out, I grabbed the extended piece and went to tear it off and in the same motion at the same time bend down to cover the "Alien" in the garbage can...kinda like a "tear, swoop, bend down and lay" move. At that same moment I was bending to swoop the paper towel down, the front of the paper towel dispenser came flying open and wapped me RIGHT IN THE FACE... above the left eye. ***I literally saw stars.*** (See attached Pics) There was blood running down my cheek by the time I got to the bathroom...! CrAzY ! This dispenser should have a label reading the following *WARNING* This dispenser has been known to cause SERIOUS bodily harm and may even cause DEATH!

  1. OUCH!! Should have had a stitch or is that a big scrape? No good deed goes unpunished... ;)

  2. Not a big scrape... impact break of the skin. I might have needed a stich or two, but it's only my face, no big deal :)
