I recently had a roommate who was at time somewhat impulsive at times. Occasionally this played itself out in interesting scenarios. In this case I, my roommate, his girlfriend, and another female friend of ours went to a cafeteria in another residence hall to eat. Sure it was somewhat of an affront to my inherent laziness, but the one in our res-hall just really sucked. Anyway as we were walking back to our hall through this dorm my roommate decided it would be fun to race his girlfriend down the hall. So he challenged her and took off. She followed behind somewhat more slowly. He easily reached the end of the hallway first and to celebrate he attempted to jump up and slap the top of the door.

One thing I didn't mention is that my roommate is 6'4". So when he jumped, tapped the top of the door, and he also tapped the protruding hinge at the top of the door with his head. As we rushed up he picked himself up off the floor and said that is was just a small cut. It turned out to be a large, albeit shallow gash. So really nothing to worry about. However as I'm sure you're all aware even a minor scalp wound bleeds profusely. So as we walked back the used his shirt to staunch some of the dripping blood. The priceless moment occurred as we were walking back. As it happened, another dorm we had to pass to get to ours happened to be having a fire drill at the time. I'll never forget the hundreds of eyes staring at my bleeding half-assed bandaged roommate and wondering what the hell happened.
