I wager that some of you guys will know just how I got this.



Hint: 'tech', not 'roadcraft'

Ouch! That looks painful. Did you whack it with a hammer?  Or is it penance for wanting to go into YS for the Topfreedom March?…

I graduated from busting knuckles, my dealer makes it too convenient, they even pick up and drop off for me, if I want.

no tools to clean and put away, no oil, filters or greasy rags to dispose

my first thought was from an IV in the back of your hand! That is one of the more painful spots to get stuck. The bruise resembles something familiar.....
