So I have quite the interesting tale from my youth to tell. A long time ago, Ddynamo was a wee six year old... (Approximately.)
...I thought I was a genius, like beyond Einstein level genius. It stemmed from watching waaaay too much Jimmy Neutron when I was little. (I miss that show. Planet Sheen ruined it.) I decided that I could invent stuff just by jamming one thing into another. In one instance, I wedged a paper clip into the seams around the two halves of a calculator (A real flimsy red one) trying to invent time travel. What I did end up with was a broken calculator.
(Shut up, I'm getting to the point.)
One day, in an even bigger fit of genius, I took a red Christmas tree ornament, the round glass kind that shatter easily, and stuck it into an empty roll of toilet paper. And by stuck into, I mean attempted to stick in. It wouldn't fit. It wasn't going to stop me though. I was a determined little Einstein, and time travel would be invented one way or another.
Long story short, the ornament exploded from being forced into the toilet paper, and a glass shard razored right through my thumb. I had to go to the E.R. I still have the scar today.
