Official arrow-to-the-knee contest entry
Disclaimer: I already own Skyrim, but I have somebody in mind who I'd like to gift it to if I somehow manage to win.

Entry: I used to enjoy arrow-to-the-knee jokes like you. Then I took a million identical youtube comments to my funny-bone and it doesn't work anymore. :( I try to laugh at them, I really do, but I guess I tried too hard, because the men in the nice white coats came for me yesterday and put me in a lovely room that seems to made out of mattresses.

My subconscious must have seen this coming, because after I finally gnawed through the straps, I felt like I really had to poop, but it turns out I managed to smuggle a laptop in my anal cavity so I can troll GN and TPU in between the beatings and brain-washing.
















Then I woke up and pulled the arrow out of my knee.

I already have skyrim, But I have a friend who is still a total Oblivion addict and short on cash.

__________________________________________
After Selfless Gift Giving took an arrow in the knee, it was all but forgotten.

Then, one day, a selfish Mage Nord traveleing to Solitude found Selfless Gift Giving, laying on the side of the road, with an Arrow in the knee bleeding to death slowly. After learning the skill of Selfless Gift Giving, He slowly helped it back into existence through an annual Gift contest, and soon, this air of Selfless giftability began to grow strong and spread troughout all the world.

This ancient Mage Nord was Kriej.

OK, true story. In November of 2005 I was a raging alcoholic. I think that I may have made a few fish jealous with my ability to survive on liquid.

So anyway, I was completely obliterated and I decided to walk a girl I was seeing at the time to her car, which was only a few blocks away. Yes, I'm such a gentleman, I know. So we left my apartment filled with drunks and booze and proceeded to her car.

In between her car and my apartment stood a very dear old friend of mine, a 2 and 1/2 foot fence. I would jump this fence every day on my way to work and the fence would stand there and take it like a... well... a fence.

So, in my drunken state, I figured it would really impress this girl if I showed her my awesome midget fence jumping capabilities. But my dear friend turned on me. I still think I heard him say "fuck your drunken ass, you're not going over me this time." and as I did my flying leap, he grabbed my foot.

As the ground came closer, I remember thinking "why fence, why you turn on me?" and then thud. My ability to get up under my own power had went the way of the dinosaurs. As I lay there doing my manliest whimper (I still had the girl to impress, you know.) she ran back up to my apartment to get someone to carry me back up there. My drunken friends came to my "rescue" and I use that term loosely because drunken friends are the absolute last people on earth that you want helping you walk when something is wrong.

We somehow made it back up to my apartment which included a grueling 2 flights of stairs, where I proceeded to finish the 3/4 full case of beer that was left. Like a boss. After the beer was gone, I said "fuck this shit, take me to the hospital." and after another grueling trip down the stairs, away we went.

The X-rays revealed that I had fractured my knee in 2 places, tore my meniscus and detached my ACL. That is the closest I have come to an arrow in the knee, and I hope to god that I don't get any closer.

Lol. I have a true story of my own, even though I am not in the contest, just for lolz. My sister, the same one in the video I posted shot me with a real arrow. It was a blunt tip, but she drilled me right in the heart. We were taking up archery, so we had the target stuff, well she was goofing around and aimed the arrow at me. Me like a dumb ass said "Go ahead and shoot". I THOUGHT I was far enough away that even if she did shoot that it wouldn't hit me, I thought wrong. I am not sure who was more shocked that it hit me, me or her.

So that was the first and last time I ever said "Go ahead and shoot" when someone had an arrow aimed at me.

I was riding on the back of a tractor when I was about 10, and my dad backed up into a log that was sticking up. It pinned my knee to the tractor. I didn't break anything though, I don't think. But it shredded my favorite pair of jeans. :cry:

Which trumps who, an arrow in the knee or a tree in the knee?

I haven't got the time for games these days. I have got addicted to APB Reloaded and Battlefield 3 though :p
Also, I don't do fantasy games like Skyrim and WoW (if this is what they call a fantasy game?); they're not my cup of tea.

Got shot with an arrow to the knee

Tried to remove it himself but said holy sh** f&*% it! :D

Even if it means "crying like a sissy girl", I would rather take an arrow to the knee than to not win this copy of Skyrim to gift to a very deserving friend.

An arrow to the knee? Pfft. I have two kids, ages 7 and 3. Considering that in the past 7 years I have taken more nutshots than the entire cast of Jackass, I would gladly take an arrow to the knee if it meant that the nutshots would stop.

Bump and here is my Official entry. :)


I was killing Dark Elves, left and right
I fought them hard with all my might

A spell from the darkness knocked me down
And there I lay upon the ground

From where it came, I had no notion
So I drank a healing potion

I groaned in pain and stood to flee
Then I took an arrow to the knee

I limped away to the shadows dark
And hid for hours 'till I saw my mark

He was mean and nasty, an opponent true
And I knew what I would have to do

I shouted loud with shock and awe

Fa la la la la la FUS RO DAH!

Kreij, Steam apparently approves of your Skyrim giveaway, because it's now on sale for $40 :D

I'm gonna try to get to all the entries ASAP (I'll leve it open for now)
Thurday morning about 3AM I had my wife call the ambulance 'cause I had severe abdominal pain.
Had to have emergency surgery for a perforated appendix. Just got out of the hospital about 1/2 hour ago and I'm a little groggy from pain killers.
At least I don't have to worry about my appendix anymore. lol (hurts like hell though)

I guess you could say my appendix took an arrow to the knee. heh
