Reply to comment by Ensabanur81 in TIL that the 'funny bone' is not actually a bone in the arm, but a nerve. The ulnar nerve is connected from shoulder to hand and is protected by bones and muscles. As it passes thru the elbow it is only protected by the cubital tunnel, making it the most prone area in the body to 'strike a nerve'. by deddPan
That they are! At least neither nerve is super sensitive now.

I elbowed some poor dude in the mouth(before mouthguards) while wrestling in high school. Scar tissue formed over the ulnar nerve. Any slight bump on my elbow was like a lightning strike. While having carpal tunnel surgery they also relocated the ulnar nerve along the inside of my arm. Eventually the nerve grew back in its original place. Now I have two funnybones.

I currently store latex house paint in plastic instant coffee jars. Some are 5 years old and still OK.

If you'll read the comments so far it is kind hearted people trying to keep stray cats from freezing to death.

I really have a hard time hearing dialog in movies so I always watch with subtitles turned on. I believe the show The Expanse was picked up by Amazon. No subtitles. Thanks Amazon.

It surprised the shit out of me! In hind sight I was surprised that he even did it. One slip up and the two little fingers in my hand would be numb for the rest of my life. Why not just remove the scar tissue and be done with it? I think he was just bored and wanted to experiment to change things up a bit.
