The other morning I ran out of the shower dripping wet to answer a phone call and on my way back to the bathroom I slipped on the wet floor and landed arse-first on a sharp edge of a shoe rack. Gouged me right on the left buttock and there was a lot of blood. 
 
I guess I've never had one before but arse-cheek injuries are the WORST. You have to sit on them! Even with this whacking great Band Aid on it, there is no respite from the stinging. Who can I sue? 

You should try 12 inches.  A mere scratch!

You don't have a shower phone?
 
What kind of dump are you living in?

Or I could just learn to ignore phone calls like everyone else

For what I observe people answering the phone appears to be the most important thing in their life.
 
I find most body parts that start with t are the most painful.

I think you have that wrong - nobody answers their damn phone any more! Everyone wants to text or DM. 

Which always involves their phone.

the guy in the booze shop up the road has a similar accident..  must be hhm 5-8 years ago.. but cut himself on a bucket or something when he fell , that was beside a toilet and passed away. customer came into the shop , found him.
 
move that item elsewhere, that there isn't a chance of you slipping etc.
 
did you get it checked by a doctor etc?
 
that muscle is normally good if you fall, as it's padding if you are a fat git like me .. as I found out in the snow about hhm 10 years back
 
 
 
 
 

I slipped in the shower oh, six months or so ago grabbed the shower curtain on the way out (like that was gonna help) and landed hip first then shoulder then head on the bathroom floor with my feet on the edge of the tub.
 
Yeah, that hurts. And for a while too.
I put those traction strips on the tub bottom.
 
Never again.
 

A doctor! Ha....takes me more than an impaled buttock to seek professional help....I'm stubborn like that. Bit of Neosporin and a Band Aid usually does the trick. 
 
I think the best thing to avoid this in the future would be not to try walking across a polished wooden floor when I'm dripping wet. I have a tendency to do it from time to time and I should stop. Sometimes I put the kettle on the stove in the morning before I get in the shower. It's usually about boiled by the time I get out, so saves me a little time. Now and then I spend a little too much time in the shower and the thing starts whistling like the dickens before I'm done, and the noise is so annoying that I run wet out of the shower to stop it. Perhaps I need to stop that too.
