    If an old farmer says “it hurts a bit” then they’re about to die and need an ER

        Yep lol reminds me of a story my dad told me. He was working on a building and adding the interior siding (it’s since been converted into a hog pen) when he smashed his thumb bad with a hammer. He decided that it was a good time to take a quick lunch break after wrapping up his thumb before driving to the hospital

        Ah yes, farming equipment. The kind of machines thats almost made to mangle humans.

        Did he get to keep the hand?

        My dad got his hand caught in a hay conveyor. Two of the tines caught the back of his hand and made two gouges a couple inches apart.

        It was the only time I’d ever heard him say “Ow.”

      I watched a video of a farmhand getting hit by a field truck and he got up and went back to work. They’re built different.
