An Irritating Itch and a Dilemma  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 93/100. Transdisc (18434) 5 years ago

Would you rather find yourself in a Straight Jacket or in Boxing Gloves if you had a really bad itch and no one was there to help you scratch it?

Why?

At first, I was going to say straight jacket. It gives you the space to manuever if you're flexible and you can use your fingers to scratch through fabric.

But then I was like... wait! You can take Boxing gloves off! I mean, they're pretty hard to get off yourself, but I'm sure you could manage it a lot better than getting out of a straight jacket.

so my final Answer:
boxing gloves.


myLot reputation of 93/100. Transdisc (18434)  5 years ago

Dang It! I meant to say that the boxing gloves are duct taped to your wrists, but I forgot!!

Whoever reads this: The boxing gloves are duct taped to your wrists. And while I'm at it, if you try to chew them off you will be whipped mercilessly (that ought to appeal to at least one myLottian, heehee)


myLot reputation of 97/100. raychill (3485)   ranked 1,375 out of 8,776 in health  5 years ago

ahahaha. I'm sorry I foiled your plan.

I'd go back to my original answer then if the boxing gloves are, in fact, duct taped to my wrists.


myLot reputation of 94/100. dfn12968 (5532)  5 years ago

If there is someone there to whip you mercilessly, why can they not scratch your itch? Oh, and the whipping would probably get rid of the itch, or at least make you stop thinking about it.


myLot reputation of 97/100. raychill (3485)   ranked 1,375 out of 8,776 in health  5 years ago

True True D, I did not think of that one either.

Curses! Foild again!


myLot reputation of 92/100. novataylor (2165)   ranked 1,365 out of 8,776 in health  5 years ago

Ok, I'm signing up for the merciless whipping. And I'd take the boxing gloves over the straight jacket anyday. With boxing gloves, you could at least thump the itch a bit and give it a bit of stimulation that might just change the itch to less of an itch or something else, you know. Some kind of touch for that sort of thing is way better than none.

Oh, this is such an easy one for me to answer. Without question I would rather be in a straight jacket because with just a bit of movement the buckles can get to most places you would need to scratch due to an itch. *giggles*


myLot reputation of 93/100. Transdisc (18434)  5 years ago

ooo, good point about the buckles, raz. :)

I would rather be in the boxing gloves!
At least I would still have my arms free to sort of pound on the itch


myLot reputation of 97/100. AmbiePam (20770)  5 years ago

ROFL That's what I do if I have an itch. You know somewhere above the waste anyway. I don't want to scratch so I just slap my head or my arm repeatedly, or whatever itches. Now I feel like I've given away way too much information.


myLot reputation of 93/100. Transdisc (18434)  5 years ago

Both of you crack me up! :)

Be careful, zu!

I'll have to file this information away for another day, AmbiePam.


myLot reputation of 92/100. brokentia (7808)   ranked 1,331 out of 8,776 in health  5 years ago

Oh! But Zu! It would be so much fun to watch you squirm around on the floor trying to itch! ha ha The Inch Worm dance! ha ha You got the image in your mind now, don'tcha? LOL

4. myLot reputation of 98/100. kimlot (4365)   5 years ago

Probably boxing gloves, I could not handle a straight jacket as I hate to be confined!


myLot reputation of 93/100. Transdisc (18434)  5 years ago

Good point about being confined, kimlot. I don't like it either, unless someone else is there to scratch my itch. ;)

5. myLot reputation of 94/100. ljegbers (5726)   5 years ago

Oh, the unscratchable itch. I'd have to say boxing gloves. It'd have to be the boxing gloves. I think that if I were to the point that I had to contain myself with another object, I'd want something that I could use.

No, not helping in the itch department, but I such could work my fruatrations out more with the goves than working myself up more in a straight jacket.

Interesting question.


myLot reputation of 93/100. Transdisc (18434)  5 years ago

Working out one's frustrations better with boxing gloves than with a straight jacket makes a lot of good sense to me as well, ljegbers. ;)

6. myLot reputation of 95/100. Songbird425 (614)   5 years ago

I would rather be in boxing gloves because I can take those off if I needed to. Plus, I would feel anxiety from being held down by a straight jacket!


myLot reputation of 93/100. Transdisc (18434)  5 years ago

I would also have a bit of anxiety, Songbird!

I would prefer boxing gloves. That way, since I'd be so irritated because of my unscratchable and bad itch, I'd be able to punch out the first person who happened to cross paths with me. Taking out my aggression others is usually the answer to everything.


myLot reputation of 93/100. Transdisc (18434)  5 years ago

O wise one, thank you for your words. I feel so much better now.

Definitely the boxing gloves hun, then I can threaten my partner until he scratches the itch for me :-)


myLot reputation of 97/100. AmbiePam (20770)  5 years ago

Good plan!


myLot reputation of 93/100. Transdisc (18434)  5 years ago

Actually, this is an excellent plan!

I'd go for the straight jacket their cummfie. Not to mention with enough practice their not all that hard to get out of.


myLot reputation of 93/100. Transdisc (18434)  5 years ago

Keep practicing, uath13! I know you can do it. (I'm impressed that you have managed to poke out a finger to type.)


myLot reputation of 91/100. uath13 (4698)   ranked 1,381 out of 8,776 in health  5 years ago

Actually I'm not bad at it now. I used to work as a magicians assistant years ago & learned a few tricks, usually painful ones, but they work.

Well, I have neither so I would opt for oven mitts. Seeing as I only have one, I guess I'd have to put capzasin on my other hand. Putting that on a hand will keep anybody from scratching anything.


myLot reputation of 93/100. Transdisc (18434)  5 years ago

heehee

Not to mention no scratching below the waist!
