Am I a curse or is this normal?

Just yesterday, not one, not two, but three of my friends got season-ending injuries, two of them with broken collarbones. Another one had serious shin-bang to the point where he couldn't walk, and another got a concussion. Does anyone else know a ton of people dropping like flies around now?

i feel your pain and hopefully you've filled your quota of shitty accidents for the season.
something similar happened to me a couple years ago. one buddy swooped in a slide (he was roughed up but basically ok), had to dig another guy out in a separate incident (he was about to pass out and was completely blue/purple when i got to him), then i broke my collarbone catching an edge at 6mph, then another homie died in an avalanche 2 days later.

A broken collarbone is a season ender?

Your friends angered God. Posting on Newschoolers won’t help them. The only way to make this right is to pee in their butts. Use goat semen for lube. And buy full tilts. Lots of full tilts.

Myself and most of my friends got injured last year. That means the quota is filled and we're all safe this year, right?

Ive had a couple day enders, but never a season ender. Always played it chill and try to minimize risk.

yeah it is, unless you're an idiot like me and go skiing 6 weeks after the initial break, then proceed to break it again, break it much worse, and have to get surgery and a plate drilled in

This one happened last night. I jumped a ridge full send since we got a powder day in the east coast. Caught edge and both skis dug into the snow. Full tomahawk down. Did another park run thinking it was just a finger jam, but I asked ski patrol and they told me its possibly full fracture. Not a season ender but two weeks is a hard wait.

sadly i am a little over 6 months clean so that's not an option. If this happened last year I would prolly just eat bars like tic tacs until my wrist heals but that's no longer an option. I can still paint with my left hand so I've just been trying to find chill spots to paint and plan on hiking when the weather is decent

I guess the question is whether we should avoid you, or ski with you because you've already used up all your bad luck and the only thing left is good luck.
