Pain.
This is a factor of human life that we cannot escape.
Pain comes in different forms and no matter who you are, you must feel pain.
A friend once said "pain is the only constant thing in this life."
He was depressed but he kinda has a point.
The most common type of pain is physical pain.
Pain from a punch or a kick or a slap
or maybe you got hit by a bus
that's physical pain, the one your body feels.
but as I said earlier, it comes in different forms
there's also emotional pain, like when you just got dumped or your favorite character from your favorite TV show dies
and there's mental pain, like when your exam questions are "answer all" or when you're forced to choose who the GOAT is between Messi and Ronaldo.
Point is,
pain exists all around us and humans feel one or more types of pain depending on the situation.
and there's something like the pain of being broke that makes us feel all types of pain at the same time. (insert tears here)
Now, each of these different pains have different intensities.
The pain you feel for one situation can be greater or lesser than the pain you feel for another.
For example, the pain of giving birth is significantly more than the pain of getting slapped and so on...
Scientists actually came up with a unit of measuring pain; something called "dol"
But that's boring, so in this ranking, I'm going to use a simple scale of 1 to 10
and if the number I assign is not in the scale, deal with it
It's my post, I can do whatever I want.
Now let's rank some painful things!
If you haven't stepped on the metal ends of a laptop charger or a phone charger, you have no idea what the Lord has done for you.
The amount of pain this thing causes is always surprising. It's even worse if you're running and you step on it.
The pain doesn't just affect your feet, it affects your entire leg.
once you step on the plug ends of a charger, you just have to sit down and cradle your feet like a wounded soldier.
But at least the pain doesn't last. A few rubs and it gets a lot better.
This is one that everyone must've experienced at some point in their lives.
If you haven't experienced this, I hate you and I'm jealous.
The tongue is one of the most delicate parts of the body, but for some reason, it's one of the easiest to hurt.
I mean, the same teeth you're using to crush chicken bones.
Imagine using that on the tongue
*shudders
There's no time I've accidentally bitten my tongue that blood didn't come out.
The annoying thing about this one is that it's a lasting pain and it causes damage for a while.
once you bite your tongue,
You had best watch the things you eat
because anything too hot or cold or spicy would trigger pain.
You can't talk about physical pain without talking about the MVP.
Now the pain in this one can vary depending on the toe you stub.
The smaller the toe, the more the pain.
If it's the biggest toe, then the pain is around 6/10.
If it's the next toe, we're looking at 8/10.
Second to the last is 9/10 and the littlest toe is a perfect 10/10.
It's just unfortunate that most times, it's the smallest toe that gets stubbed.
This...
This is pain itself.
What makes this the worst is that it doesn't matter the amount of force that is used to hit it, the littlest tap will cause intense pain.
It's so bad that if we as guys see another guy being whacked in the balls, we feel it too.
No man can remain standing after getting hit in the balls, it's either you take a knee or you take a nap.
It also provides some emotional pain because you'll start to wonder if your bloodline has been cut short.
Imagine investing so much of your time and energy into an amazing show,
You've fallen in love with the characters and the story keeps you on the edge of your seat.
The season just got to a crazy cliffhanger and you cannot wait to see what happens next!
Then it gets cancelled.
All that time, all the beautiful characters.
Just gone.
First of all, screw Netflix because they are the ones that like doing this shit.
Secondly, it's painful, but not that painful.
There are thousands of shows and you'll probably get over it soon.
I'm sure a lot of us have experienced this
Not me though, I was never the crusher, always the crushed.
anyway, being rejected by your crush is like an emotional gunshot
It's even worse if you get rejected and put in the friend zone!
Especially if it's someone you see everyday
you'll just keep getting reminded of the rejection.
Then when the person gets into a relationship with someone that's more attractive than you.
omo, that's the nail in the coffin.
but most people get over it eventually so
It's painful when you don't do well on a test.
it's even more painful when the people you played with instead of reading do well on a test and you didn't.
At least if we failed together, I'd feel better about myself.
But you're telling me that I'm all alone?
This is especially painful because it's an amalgamation of different pains.
pain of failing the course,
pain of disappointment in yourself for failing,
pain of betrayal from your friends that read without you.
It's just too much!
the ranking:
because that's what you'll see when you check your results.
Well
that's all for now folks.
Most of the things I listed are pains that I've gone through.
I did that so that I could accurately rank them.
Do you agree with my rankings and if not what rank would you give them?
What pain have you gone through that I didn't list and how would you rank them?
lemme know below.
Thank you for reading.
Stay buzzing,
Maximus.
