Am I cursed? 03:02 - Aug 22 with 595 viewsKropotkin123

Just wondering, as I don't want it to impact our season.

Stubbed my toe into the corner of a skirting board. Split open my toe. Another one very bruised and swollen. Joked I was walking along and the wall came from nowhere.

At the beach, digging in sand with my toddler, got a seashell splinter three quarters of the way up the underside off my nail. The risks of entertaining your kids.

I got ill, assuming a standard flu.

First day back at work, I was super tired at the end of the day, walked between buildings, rolled my ankle, hit the deck, cut my hand open, had to do an embarrassing plaster/Savlon request after cleaning it out.

Wife says she's ill this morning. I take the day off to help with my toddler and the daycare stuff. Take the dog out for a walk at 3 before collecting my boy from daycare. Dog does a second poo. Got him in my left hand, picking up a mushy piece of his poo with a poo bag. As I've crouched down, I've unknowingly caught a wasp between my arse cheek and my achilles (I'm in flipflops). Shooting pain on my achilles. I lift my leg up to look what the (sorry Phil) F is going on, and I trap the DH wasp even more. It is properly going for me, full on waging a war. Admirable to be honest. Not just a "you're a threat", more of a you've disrespected 10 generations of my lineage type attack. Anyway. I can't drop the dog lead as I'm next to a busy road. I can't hit it away with my right hand, as that has a mushy poo bag on it. I try and kick it off, but standing on the leg you are getting stung on is a challenge. So I fall over for the second time in two days and I sit there for 5 minutes.

This is all within a week and a half.

Going with Qué Sera Sera for tomorrow. I'm hoping this is the suffering I need to personally go through for external things to go well. But also, as the title suggests, hoping I'm not cursed for the season.

Hells teeth man, you make my past 3 weeks’ record seem paltry in comparison!*
Get well soon 👍

*Pin of buckle on leather ITFC belt fell out just before we lost pre-season friendly to Oxford.

Pulled over on road by my stupidly friendly dog rushing to greet a neighbour coming up behind us while I was chatting with someone else - incurring numerous grazed knuckles, one each of grazed wrist & elbow; black & blue hip + pulled shoulder -> Dracula walk home dripping blood.

Elastoplasted grazed knuckles meant clumsy veg chopping, resulting in slicing top of thumb on other hand.

Missed overgrown step in garden, comic fall against light plastic plant pot which split it & neatly separated 2 inches of skin from back of my hand

'I've unknowingly caught a wasp between my arse cheek and my achilles ' - surely you had a plan for that eventuality?

Your luck has to change soon. Rush out and buy a lottery ticket. On second thoughts perhaps don’t rush.

Better to stay silent and be thought a fool than open your mouth and remove all doubt

Dear Kropotkin123

You have brought to the attention of the TWTD Forum a run of unfortunate events that you have experienced over the past 10 days. However, it is common knowledge that bad luck always comes in threes, and regrettably your list only contains 5 such instances.

We would like to remind you that our return to the Premier League kicks off at 3pm today, so would be very grateful if you could rectify this by having one further mishap before this event takes place. From your list, it is clear that these were all deeply unpleasant misfortunes, so we would be satisfied with something minor; for example(s), a loaf of bread landing on your head when opening a kitchen cupboard, or following through slightly after a particularly wet fart.

If you could update us on which event occurred to complete the set of 3 before 3pm, we would be very grateful.

Kind Regards

Ipswich Town Worldwide Fanbase
