I'll start: I tried to move a bookshelf while drunk about 6 years ago and tore a tendon in my shoulder pretty damn good. It still bothers me sometimes if I move it wrong or sleep on it wrong.

Earlier this week I tried to pick up my fat ass cat and tweaked my back. I've been hobbling around like an old man all week.

Either you've a leopard and think it's a regular cat, or you have a VERY fat cat.

Spotted the <30yo. Just you wait. I have tweaked my back from lifting a milk carton the wrong way.

My cat is overweight but not obese lol. It is always the innocent things that you do that end up hurting your back. The first time I hurt my back was when I was sitting on a step... tying my effing shoe.

Fortunately it has only happened to me three times in the last 6 years. Every time it happens I feel like I am dying though.
