Today, while walking to work, I found out what it feels like to be hit in the face by a rolled up newspaper thrown from the window of a moving car by a paper boy doing his rounds. It hit hard enough to give me a black eye. FML

I guess you didn't need to read the headlines. You got to experience them.

I wouldn't have thought it would hurt that much, especially to give you a black eye. Gotta watch out for those things now, OP :x

If you go out every morning "looking out for those things" like getting hit by a newspaper, you're a pretty paranoid guy...

this sounds like a story that ALL the other papers are going to want to print. :)

If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a news paper. Stay classy Australia...

it's different in Australia, when I was a paper boy, I walked mine, and would only use the car when it was raining, or REALLY hot in the summer.

I use to throw a news paper. My paper route was about 150 miles so you had to use a car

Damn, that must have been a large wad of paper to cause that. Hope you get better though.
