i'm screwed (strong language)

[Hotrod]

I actually have really good memory, but I've never had a concussion or something like that before (now that I think about it, I've never even broken a bone or anything like that). I'm sorry to hear about what happened to you, I hope everything turns out well.

As far as I remember, I've never had anything hit my head so hard, except for the occasional "I bumped my head lollolllol."
But I'm still forgetful

[SnaFuBAR]

ever since my incident, i can't take naps during the day, because when i wake up, i don't know what day it is. i have to check my phone or computer.

I still retain my photographic memory

I once fell out the back of a jeep (I think it was going about 20mph?) and banged the back of my head on the road a couple of times while I was bouncing up and down...that hurt but I still retain my photographic memory

WTF? How do you just fall out of a jeep? Well, +rep for you. Anyways, I'm forgetful as well but I'm not too bad. I forget about HW and random stuff like pencils on my way to school, but I've gotten better. My parents used to make me (when I was like 8) write a list of things I had to do so I didn't forget.

I blame it on this time I fell on a gravel road and got a rock stuck in my forehead, and I was gushing blood. Well, it wasn't stuck, but it stayed there even when I got up, and this was when I was first learning to walk so it may have messed me up. I am smart but I'm lazy and very impatient... maybe just my personality.

it's absolutely the concussion. i was caught in a concussion blast which knocked me unconcious. after that, i couldn't remember what year it was for about a week. that was a year and a half ago. to this day, i have trouble remembering what day it is.

How did you get caught in a concussive blast?

[I_Am_Error117]

I would stay away from the comp for a while and go out and have some fun. The other day though, I took a dive off a one foot wall.................head rirst, hit a tree on the way down, smashed a innocent bush, hit the sprinkaler system did a flip and landed on my feet, but I had what looked like EMO cuts all the way from my ankle to 4 in away from my crotch, I also cut up my face, and chest but not my arms 0_o. It was fun.

heh, i'll hijack my own thread to turn it into the KO thread: post stories about any time you've been knocked out.

first time for me was just before my black belt testing- in order to qualify to test, you had do do something known as "the wall," which was 12 minutes non-stop of full-contact sparring. 4 of my instructors basically took 1 minute turns beating me up for 12 minutes, and in the second to last round my instructor nailed me in the temple with a butterfly kick/tornado kick/540 kick/whatever they call it these days. I was only out for a second or two, but i woke up staring at the ceiling, my instructor still in a sparring stance, telling me to get up.

i passed, btw. =)

[SMASH]

Ha, yea, black belt testings are always fun. I started in karate when I was about 5 and by 13 I tested for my black belt. Luckly, that would be called child abuse if my sensei beat the crap out of me but I was tackled by a big black sensei. That was the extent of my beats then.

Don't think I've ever been knocked out, I feel so alone
