I'll start: I tried to move a bookshelf while drunk about 6 years ago and tore a tendon in my shoulder pretty damn good. It still bothers me sometimes if I move it wrong or sleep on it wrong.

I was playing with some kids I was babysitting in McDonald's play tubes when I was 18. I bent my ankle weird. I'm turning 30 in a couple months and there's literally not a single day without ankle pain. Sometimes it's disabling. Several times they haven't actually found anything wrong with it but last time they said it had something (can't remember) and it made a lot of bad clicking sounds when the podiatrist handled it. I've tried lots of things to help.
