So I got drunk on Thursday night at the pub and ended up falling at the end of the night and splitting my chin open.

FAIL.

I wasn't blacked out or anything, I remember everything. Just tripped up and slammed my face off the ground, was climbing stairs so I didn't really have time to put my hands out first.

Nice big hole in my chin - Was bleeding for ages. Should of got it looked at that night, they said they might of put a stitch or two in - But in the morning when I went it was too late to put in stitches because it had already started swelling and scabbing a little.

Dear oh dear :/

So is it just plastered up now?

Pretty much.

Those white strips aim to hold the skin in place to help it scab and start healing. The clingfilm like stuff is just to keep the wound sealed for like 5 days - It's water proof, you can shower with it on.

Suppose to be off to a joint 21st tonight in O'Couture, but I can't drink cause of meds, plus it looks rank as hell.

So I bailed out :p

Ah ok, did they say if it'll leave a scar now because you never got stitches?

And yeah drinking while on meds = bad idea. Did that myself stupidly last year (N)

There's gonna be some sort of scar, how bad we'll need to wait and see :/ The wound itself is like an actual hole, so it could be quite a bad one...

Yeah some of my mates were like "man up and come out". But I ain't hanging bout town till 3-4am sober. That sucks :p Plus meds make me pretty drowsy, fairly strong.

Only 5/6 were out Thursday, and I haven't seen all the others since [nor the two having bdays tonight], so my mates who were out on Thurs were backing me up like "Naw, it really was a bad one, staying in understandable" :laugh:

Gutted man, hope it heals quickly (Y)

Just chill out tonight instead and play a game or watch a movie or something.

Probs be a good month or so till it's at a decent looking stage!

It's bad, but at least it's not like when I took a layer of skin off my nose back in September. House party at the ex's. Looked like a fud for weeks, but at least it wasn't deep, healed without any scar really.

I'm a steaming ****** :p

Yeah probably watch a movie or something, as I said the meds make me quite tired/drowsy... dunno if I can be arsed playing games. Watched Requiem for a Dream last night, bad idea, one of the most depressing films about. It's good but! Female ass to ass scene from the directors cut FTW :p

scars on your chin only really become a problem if they affect stubble growth. if you ever go for that 'rough' look it can look like the razor slipped :p

trying a wheelie and smashing my chin on a curb when i was 8 came back to bite me later in life :laugh:

Nooooo!

I love having a beard sometimes smiley-beard.png

no, it was more of a deep graze than a split, so there was nothing to stitch together... my chins took a fair pounding though, as i used to bmx race as a child, so falling off and landing chin first happened a fair bit.

i don't have any real scars (when clean shaven), just a couple of blank patches on the underside of my chin when the stubble grows through.

    • You pay just $100 per TB with this rare 4TB PCIe Gen4 NVMe SSD deal

      Hello, I have used a few TEAM Group SSDs, USB flash drives, and Micro SDXC cards in the past. They all seemed to work fine. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky

      "just $100 per TB"? Just? Are we trying to make this seem like the new normal? Kinda weird to make it sound like that is not a ridiculously expensive asking price.

      The reviews you refer to mean nothing. Where there is no journalism there is no reason to call the gaming media's opinion pieces "reviews". For GP games there is indeed a metric for success - increasing subscriptions. Which turns in revenue. The only circumstance in which subs do not rise when great is being released is a Game Pass system where the company is close to fully saturated with customers in a subscription. However, in that case as the theory goes you spend aplenty in all kind of games - from shady live service cash cows and customer offending agitprop crap in purple colours to robust and entertaining single player games. And keep a solid level of profitability. Ignoring the simply innocuous but mid games MGS has released primarily of the second kind.
    • Report: Microsoft to use AWS to help GitHub deal with a major surge in demand

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      Report: Microsoft to use AWS to help GitHub deal with a major surge in demand by Pradeep Viswanathan Thanks to the surge of coding AI agents, GitHub's usage has skyrocketed over the past 12 months. To meet this demand, GitHub started with a plan in October 2025 to increase capacity by 10x. However, by early this year, the company realized that it needed 30x scale. This rapid growth has caused severe strain on the platform's reliability, resulting in several small outages over the past few months. In April, GitHub published a long blog post explaining the steps it is taking to resolve these reliability issues. In the post, the company also confirmed that it is working toward a multi-cloud architecture for better resilience. Today, Business Insider reported that GitHub is turning to Amazon Web Services to help deal with a major surge in AI-driven coding activity. It is important to note that GitHub is still in the process of moving completely to the Azure cloud. The current plan is to move the platform fully to Azure by 2027 so that it can scale better as per developer demand. Therefore, the current decision to utilize AWS might be part of a short-term plan to meet immediate demand. A Microsoft spokesperson confirmed that GitHub is using multiple cloud providers with the following statement: For Microsoft, the decision highlights the operational pressure behind the AI boom. GitHub has to stay reliable for developers at a time when rivals such as Codex, Cursor, Claude Code, and other AI coding tools are gaining attention. And the decision to use AWS for computing capacity seems practical given the circumstances.
