Worst Wakeup...Ever
« on: 17 July 2011, 11:26:52 »
Got blown out of bed this morning by my 3 year old son dumping his cup of water on my side of the bed at about 7:45 this morning after crashing around 3 am ish.  I seriously thought for about 5 seconds that I was back in boot, as right after he poured out the water, he ran and flipped the lights on, screeching like the evil little munchkin he is when he's in that mood.

Anybody else have less than fond memories of horrible freaking ***-kicked-out-of-bed moments?


Yea, it really is that fast....

As a teen my room was in the basement of the house and my bed was under the heating duct. little did i know the first time that there was a knot hole in the wood floor of the dinning room above me that was big enough for a broom handle to fit thru and hit the duct. This was one of my fathers more inventive ways to get me out bed at 0 dark thirty on sundays in the summer to get ready to go for the horse shows.

While I was living with my parents, having my mom come screeching into my room at 6 am shouting that I was going to be late for work two hours after I'd gotten back from GenCon (got up at 5am Sunday, was at GenCon until 1pm, went to the airport, arrived back at the airport at midnight, drove for four hours to get home at 4 am).

My ex-girlfriend coming into my room (I still owe my roomates for letting her in to do this) sneaking into my room and dropping one of my 25 pound barbells onto my bed. Wouldn't have been so bad if it hadn't broken one of the support beam in the bed frame. >:( It did finally give me an excuse to by a real bed instead of the piece of crap I had been using.

Possibly the time we were burgled, and i managed to scare the burglars off.

GF "Dearest i think someone's trying to break into the house"

Me "It's ok it's only the ComGuards"

She laughed so hard i think they thought they'd broken into a mad persons house, and yeah i really did say that in my sleep.  This was about 2000, and
i was helping run a Mechcommander league at the time.  Guess the subconscious was processing :p

But this is a humourous wakeup.

Falling asleep in the bathtub, one must remember to lock door.

My 4 yr. old dropped by and released a very large unopened box of maple syrup oatmeal.

Nothing like sweet smelling and dried horse food on you to wake up with. At least my pores were expunged.

It didn't happen to me.  A buddy I had way back, you know, around the time the wheel was invented, anyway, a wasp decided to land on his eyelid while he slept.  His natural reaction was to rub his eye, so, the wasp did its natural reaction.

Awoke one morning to the worst pain I ever felt....KIDNEY STONE!  Felt like I was passing a bowling ball covered with spikes dipped in salty lemon juice.

what's a motor simulator?   Do you mean a mortar simulator; like an artillery simulator?

When I was a kid, my brother and I slept in bunk beds.  I once rolled right out and thwacked my head off of one or more shelves on the way down.

I don't remember it actually happening, When I woke up (again) I had a whole load of dried blood in my hair and had no idea why until my mum told me what happened.

Last month, I had an allergic reaction to some chigger bites sustained in our backyard on the night of July 4th.

One problem was the insane amount of itching that developed all over my legs, and eventually pubic region.

There was one afternoon in particular, after I had just woken up from a nap, that my "male organ" became extremely irritated, and it seemed to be on the inside...

No amount of scratching could help this condition, but it went away after a few days.

@MoparMessiah:  I did see a urologist.  He found nothing after examining me; he advised me that a dermatologist might be able to tell me more about the rash, but that if it continues, I should return to see him.  So far, it hasn't really bothered me any.

With their numbers and ferocity, those chiggers must have been related to the Tyranids. :-[

I was staying on the 2nd bunk on a houseboat.  I rolled out of bed and landed on my back.  I remember my back really hurting and thinking I was paralyzed because I could not move my arms or legs.  I just said ow, ow, ow until my friend's dad woke up thinking I was seriously hurt.  Turns out I just had a bruise and was too tired to move.

they definately are tyranid like, luckily I am not allergic, unluckily males in my family apparently emit a pheromone that attracts the little monsters, in the 60s when my brothers were boy scouts, they were very popular as whenever a Talley was on the campout nobody else got bit  by the chiggers

flashh forward to the mid 80s and me and 2 roomies go camping, one of them got 5-6 bites, one  got 12-14, I stopped counting at 100, I literally bathed in calomine for 2 weeks
