Be careful what you say to dumb people.

So a friends car battery keeps dying. I told him to make sure the fan belt was tight enough that it wasn't slipping and would therefore be charging properly (1975 chevy).

Calls me up with a bloody hand, says he can't tell, but my stupid advice mangled his fingers.

Now he knows to check with the engine OFF...

true story.

Please tell me that was an April Fool's joke.

I would re evaluate my friend choosing paradigm.
But thats just me.

I work at a hospital and a doc showed me an XRay of someone that got his hand caught in a fan belt. His fingers actually went under the pulley and got so mangled that 2 fingers had to be amputated.

As my anger management counselor says, "stupid people do stupid things"
As I say if your gonna be stupid you better be tough!

Dang having Forest Gump as a friend must be a Bi-atch! j/k
but really this is some kind of joke right?
OH well hope his hand will be ok.

No Joke, and it is not a serious injury.

my high school buddy's dad did that on a model T many, many years ago. Chopped off two fingers on his hand. Your buddy was lucky.
