*WARNING GRAPHIC IMAGE* - THIS IS THE REASON I DON'T WEAR A WEDDING RING

[gunman41mag]

Not that it really matters, but was that a wedding ring? It's on his middle finger.

Does it really matter if it's a wedding ring, point is he almost lost his finger

This happened to me last year. Not a 'ring' incident though, if it weren't for my trusty Timex watch, I probably would have had a broken wrist as well as the 9 stitches. It absorbed the impact when an electric pallet jack slammed me into the edge of a walk-cooler doorway.

A guy I worked with...jumped off the back of a stake bed truck. His ring caught on the bed rails, and ripped the finer completely off! Now he walks around with a permanent shocker! He is used to it now...some of his girlfriends like it...others not so much

One of the reasons why I don't wear jewelry of any kind.

 

[KDUBCR250]

Yep. That's why I don't.

A good reason to not get married.

A good reason to not get married.

You mean a good reason for a married man not to wear a wedding ring

When I went to Lincoln Tech., in 1974, my Electric teacher told me of a mechanic, whose ring shorted out on an alternator. Melted to the bone..... Don't know if that can really happen, but I remove jewelry, and the negative wire, while working around anything electric .....

Yes it can and does happen. I've seen both the melted ring/bracelet and the degloving of fingers while working as an EMT.

I work with tools a lot, when I was married I would wear my ring on a necklace except for dress occasions.

Oh yeah, in case your ring gets caugh in something when you go visit a strip club.
For safety reasons, right?

All I can say is "Thank-You!!" My wife has been on my butt for 25 yrs about why I don't wear my wedding ring at work. Just showed her the pics, sometimes words just don't paint a vivid enough picture. Thank you agian!

For some reason, the popcorn doesn't taste good right now.....

I'm not married so I won't have that trouble.

In the strip club, i don't think throw dollars at the ladies or getting a lap dance, your ring isn't going to rip into your finger

That's why I said, "not that it matters." I just wanna know what dude wears a ring on his middle finger.

Some lap dances can be pretty rough.Or so I heard anyway.

And watch out for them knives.... I'm going to have my 2nd surgery in about 5 weeks. It happens in the blink of a eye..

 

[BogWalker]

Take an aspirin, slap a band-aid on it, and man up!

 

[LeeStreet]

That pix made my nads hurt!

 

[CountryBoy19]

I normally wear my wedding band but anytime I'm doing anything that a degloving could result I take it off... too much risk... no reward for keeping the band on...

I agree, this needs a warning in the subject line.
