What's the phrase for when something bad causes something good?

[Reginald]

My whole entire life I've had a pretty bad right knee - clicking, prone to cramp and giving way beneath me for whatever reason - and the doctors always said I'd have to live with it. Then last year at Reading Festival, I emerged from a giant pillow fight and got knocked down by a security car. Completely fine, picked myself up, dusted myself off and carried on. But that accident made my knee worse and for the last 10 months it's been agony to move it most of the time, either when doing some particular exercise e.g. cycling, or when not moving at all then trying to do so e.g. sleeping.

So anyway, today I was suffering from pretty bad hayfever (no idea why, raining like hell), streaming from eyes and nose. In my rather delerious and puffy-eyed state, I tripped over one of the low tables in our common room and smacked my right knee and my head on the sharp corners of tables as I fell. Thinking more of my bleeding head at the time, I thought nothing of my knee. But now that I have cleared my head and paid attention, my knee no longer hurts and it feels stronger than it has done my whole life.

Yay for accidental injuries!
Boo for massive head-bruise and hayfever that both better leave by Friday when I am supposed to be entertaining female company.


So... how big was everyone's shit this morning?

I have been having a bad turn in with the mooshy shits. The ones that don't always completely finish, so you spend an extra 5-10 minutes wiping your ass....then every time you piss, you gotta wipe, so you don't leave horrible marks!

i believe the phrase you are looking for does not exist, I suggest you make one up, copyright it and make monies.

Japanese food will do it for me. I once had to shit in an alley outside of a Japanese restaurant because the bathroom was locked and my gut exploded.

It's only temporary, if you think to much of it, it will start to hurt again.

 

[Reginald]

Carrots make my farts and shits explode in a plume of retch-making stench. I did eated loadses of carrots this week. This smell better be gone by Friday.

I also cannot handle cereal well, but only when I'm eating it with milk. I remember those days in high school, about 10AM, sitting in class waiting for my stomach to turn inside out...

Jammy get?

 

[_-_-SELAS-_-_]

We have a few phrases for it in danish they wont really make sense in english but so what...

Held i uheld = Luck in badluck.

And I like this one:
Theres nothing so bad its not good for something. (Usually refering to grim stuff like if some one dies, critters will get food/some one will gain financial boost directly or indirectly (undertaker and job is given to someone else etc.)).

 

[Smoke]

Stop talking shit.

I see wot u did thar

ON TOPIC POST INCOMING

I'd get it checked out by a doctor anyway, just to be sure that it's properly OK and not about to go insanely bad for you. It seems pretty cool though. Maybe it can be applied to other medical problems?
