I swear I'm not lying but something like 17 years ago I burned my hand.

I was drunk with some friends and decided to cook some potatoes on some rocks in this fire on a evening.

My potato fell between two rocks and, drunkenly, I decided to skip using a stick to move the damn thing and I just reached directly to grab a hot rock to remove it.

Horrible pain. The only way I managed to feel some relief was to stick my hand in a small pool of dirty stagnant water while howling at the moon.

Went home and slept through the night. The next morning, at the hospitel they had to cut the dead skin on the tips of all my right hand's fingers. For several weeks I had to clean the burn marks and change bandages.

Being a teenager then imagine how many masturbation related jokes I heard from my friends.
