I have sustained the worst injury known to geekhood. I have cut the end of my right index finger. Mouse-clicking has become a monumental task, comparable to scaling everest. :mad::mad::cry::cry::mad::mad:

I assume you mentioned "geekhood" because of the way this happened. Are you going to share it with us? :confused::smile:
 
Paper cut.

Opening the package from Amazon.

So what's the problem? Just use your other hand. :rolleyes:

For using the mouse and typing. I guess this would be the downfall of Smurf.

Edit: but I'm still curious about how this happened.
