What did we learn today?

>According to the law of conservation of energy, no energy is destroyed due to friction, though it may be lost to the system of concern. Energy is transformed from other forms into thermal energy. A sliding hockey puck comes to rest because friction converts its kinetic energy into heat which raises the thermal energy of the puck and the ice surface. Since heat quickly dissipates, many early philosophers, including Aristotle, wrongly concluded that moving objects lose energy without a driving force.

I took my warm hands out of roasty warm gloves as a small child and plunged them into the snow, I quickly learned cold things can feel like it burns also.

What actually happens is the frozen water forms ice crystals, which damage the skin cells. the blood vessels constrict, reducing blood flow and delivery of oxygen to the area also know as Raynaud's phenomenon, it can feel painful when warming the area back up and the blood flow returns to normal again however it causes swellings that can also look like a burn some times. 🤷🏻‍♂️ It’s amazing how the body reacts to things isn’t it?

I work with my hands and tools everyday so they're constantly getting scratched/cut. So there's always a new wound.

Last night me.and the knife were watching Netflix and she asked how long I've had my thread scar on my left index finger, and I had to think.about it. Spring of 18 I believe lol

I am further referring to my wife as my knife from now on. I've heard the term old battle ax but knife is a new one

Congratulations, you can now safely commit all the crime(s) you've ever wanted and get absolutely away with it on just this one finger alone.

Kinda feels like a superpower....

Happens to the best of us. The great part is, we all do it again still not thinking

Thinking…

Now what can I screw my finger into…?

Be glad it's on that side; on the back it messes with the creases on your finger more, but here it just makes your fingerprint ridges shallower once it heals. (I am going off of the anecdotal source of burning the fingerprint sides of all fingers at least three times each and two burns on the backs).

Look at the bright side: I one time touched a running chainsaw blade because I was wondering what it felt like

Omg that's nothing. I took a 16 penny nail out of the nail gun right through the webbing between my thumb and index finger. Stitched it up on the jobsite with chalkline, got yelled at because I cut some of the chalkline. Had to buy a new one on my way to the job the next day.

Wow, that sound real cool, you're a real tough gritty person who isn't totally so self important that they are comparing wound damage to a guy who has 11 perfectly parallel lines on his finger.

1 single hole wound vs 11 parallel lines.

RIP bozo, 2/10 vs 8/10 perfect wound.

Totally dude I mean who complains about a shitty little screw thread burn right??

stew9703 t1_ixoats6 wrote

Nobody it seems like, just look at this guy. Didn't complain at all literally just posted that he has neat parallel lines in his finger. Unlike one of the commenters who bitched that he got injured at work with one little hole in a non critical area and had the nerve to use non medical company work supplies to make it feel a lil better.
