Hmmm...after many years of careful study of myself, and my tendancies toward losing my balance, falling down, and more or less proving completely physically inept, I have decided to look for others with my particular affliction...

So, what have you done (or failed at doing) to be called clumsy?

Nope, I've managed to avoid clumsiness, I've never tripped over my own feet, and can run in flippers.

Just now tonight, I was painting a Warhammer miniature, and knocked down the paintpot... thankfully I was quick and nothing spilled... but about 2 minutes later I was closing the lid and sploing... the pot does a backflip and to make a short story even shorter... there is a red stain on my table now. Guess that spill was bound to happen... [img]smile.gif[/img]

I can be clumsy at times. It's because sometimes I'm in a hurry, and too focused on what I want to do, and I move too fast. Then whammo, I hit something in my path, knock it over. More though is me kneeing things LOL. Man my office at work sucks with all the wooden desks with sharp edges, and its so cluttered you literally have to move along a trail. Can't tell you how many times I end up bashing my legs because of some rushing thought LOL.

I was the kid in school who leaned his chair back and actually fell occaisionally.

LOL at the stain, Jorath. It was indeed bound to happen---stuff like that ALWAYS happens.

LZ, an unorganized office can contribute to clumsiness? AMAZING REVELATION! *writes it down*

I hope it doesn't get more crowded... :D

Well I'm the only secretary there now doing everything, so I have no help. Soooo many boxes full of files that needs to be moved that are all stacked up everywhere, nobody to do it (I'm not strong enough and my boss is 80). So yeah I'm kinda like a rat in a maze LOL. :D

Yea, I trip over chairs that are hardly even in my quite often. I'm not sure how I manage it, but I do. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

I seem to have quite limited perception of my body in space. I often trip over nothing or run into doorways. And I'm a bit uncoordinated - things like dancing and ball sports are a particular challenge :D

Nope...

Obviosuly the occcasional thing where i trip over a rock in my path... or fall of my chair... or miss the seat when sitting down... or knock things over... or...

Nah... I'm actually not that clumsy...

Yes. I trip on my walk a lot.

LOL...When I dance, I describe it as rythmic almost-falling.

Several of us seem to trip over...chairs?

How does that work?

Nope, I have often been said to be very skilled with my balance, I never fall over, and when im climbing over things in my room, like my bed and fall, I always land properly.

I sometimes accientally kick chairs or table if I go to near them.

"Clumsy," is that a euthamism for drunk? [img]smile.gif[/img]

But seriously, I went through a stage of walking into door-frames, and the sofa near a door. I think it was because i had grown and my spacial-awarness hadn't been told about it!

Just yesterday I hit my head on the ceiling coming down stairs and knocked myself out..

But that's the only time I've done anything as remotly silly as that.

Knocked yourself out?! As in, unconscious?

Sheesh, I did manage to break my nose slightly out of clumsiness...hit it against a gate :(

As in out cold at the bottom of the stairs..

It get's worse, I've slipped in the bath/shower before and knocked myself out before..

As in out cold, woke up shivering..


Walking though doorways I tend to catch my hips on them if I'm not carefull..

And I was talking on the phone late one night to, a friend, and bashed my elbow so hard I couldn't feel my hand at all or half my arm, in the morning I had a massive bruise, I don't bruise normaly..

I'm clumsy with some things - I have a tendancy of snapping pencils at school, or dropping pens etc. I fall off my chair around once a week too, but that's becuase i swing back. When eating, i normally spill alot on the table, but that could just as easyly be because i eat like a pig :D

Maybe, TGTF...but maybe, and bear with me on this one, you were zapped with a food-spillage ray by a super-advanced race at birth!

I remember that my first girlfriend and I kept walking into things when we first started going out.

The missing 8th dwarf.

I am only very clumsy when I am nervous. Otherwise I am clumsy free. I can't wait until Spirits see this. [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

i'm a clutz! i have bruises i can't account for. i broke the same toe twice without like 8 months, i broke the toe beside that one when trying to kick a cat (i was tyring to sleep and he thought my feet were toys) i've thrown my head back into walls while laughing, clipped the same spot time and time again on the same corner of a cage (we had a bunny) i've burned dinner, and not just i forgot to check on it type burned, i mean i set it on fire! i think i qualify for clumsy.


[EDIT]-WOOOHOOO!!!! I'M A RED DRAGON! should i start my own spam thread? or give z and the mods a break?

Both, of course, Rev!

Yeah, I think that that qualifies you as clumsy...broken toes trying to kick a cat, especially.

What was the cat made out of?

PLEASE GOD NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Clumsiness is Murphy's "If something bad can happen, it will" law in action. I'm considerably slumsy, drop stuff, trip, knock stuff ocver, etc. My aunt and uncle hate having me over by now, or so Iwould think.

You don't have the style to pull it off ;)

oh the cat is quite a normal little fuzzy, the problem was i hit my toe with the heel of my kicking foot. no one believed me it was broke, but i was bruised and swollen for 2 months.


You don't have the style to pull it off ;) </font>[/QUOTE]thanks so muchf or that vote of confidence vaskez, you've just confirmed why i never expect anyone to answer my posts.

yes..i've seen this thread..unfortunatly..
and i'm glad only two people know my clumsiness in this forum [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]
and if i were to go in detail and examples of my clumsiness...it would go pages and pages worth..so i'm gonna save you and me time and say...i'm a bigg ...i mean BIG clutz.... [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Aww, was only joking, you've been here long enough to know that

And Vaskez demonstrates the ultra-rare Vocally-Clumsy phenotype!

You're one of a kind, Vaskie!

We can only thank god for that...

Aww, was only joking, you've been here long enough to know that </font>[/QUOTE]yeh i know...thing is no matter how witty i think i am, no one else (not even morgie) seems to agree. such is my life.

I am getting to be a right Mr.Bump, I just hit my head coming down stairs a seond time this week..

Iive now got a big bump on my forehead, and another on the top of my head..

Hmm...well, it seems that for the most part, people have trouble with their lower legs and heads...the parts of us that we move the most. I guess that makes sense.
