Charlotte Observer: Baron Davis Has a Herniated Dick
Media Gossip/Musings, NBA January 4th. 2012, 3:38pm
The Charlotte Observer regrets the error.
The next stop was a final read by a second editor, another experienced employee who recognized that “herniated disc” doesn’t conform to the newspaper’s style for that type of injury, and that it should be “herniated disk.” That editor tried to type in the correction, but ended up with an unfortunate typo.

Are we sure it’s an error? When Baron sits on the bench I imagine he has on of (nsfl) these things

Davis is out with a dick. Very unfortunate.

I was home for the holidays and noticed that typos and grammatical errors now appear abundantly in the Times-Picayune, which used to be a good read. But that’s what happens when newspaper publishers gut the newsroom, starting with copy editors.

Sounds painful.
/clicks sousedbergin’s link
ARRGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
/adds sousedbergin to my “don’t click his links” list.
January 4th, 2012 at 3:47 PM
It should have read “Baron Davis is a herniated dick.”
January 4th, 2012 at 3:50 PM
Oh God. I couldn’t imagine a worse pan that shoving some into my dick and than having it drain my sack. FUCK THAT.
January 4th, 2012 at 3:51 PM
The amount of “do not” lists I’m on is starting to become worrisome.
January 4th, 2012 at 3:53 PM
sousedbergin just made a bulimic outta’ me. And I thought my poison-oaked balls last week were disgusting… well-played, you sick bastard.
January 4th, 2012 at 3:53 PM
it’s herniated dieck, asshole.
/nods at mirror
January 4th, 2012 at 3:54 PM
this is a common side effect of being a fat shit
January 4th, 2012 at 3:56 PM
Nice work, Mr. Dick.
January 4th, 2012 at 3:56 PM
I got poison ivy on my penis last year. Not a good time at all.
January 4th, 2012 at 3:58 PM
How in the hell did you get the beans above the frank?

Eh, I’ll probably still click on your links. However, that last one was horrifying.

too much road beef huh?
January 4th, 2012 at 4:01 PM
dick move, soused.

should i go on about my Dajuan Wagner story from back in his Cavs days?
January 4th, 2012 at 4:01 PM
Guys get these kinds of injuries when they try to blow themselves, right?
January 4th, 2012 at 4:02 PM
What the fuck. Were you playing Adam and Eve in the woods with your wife, wipe with the wrong leaf, I guess the question is, how did you get poison ivy on your shaft? That would be horrible
January 4th, 2012 at 4:03 PM
Carry on…. First he loses his colon and now this, oh boy.

/waits for coop to answer
January 4th, 2012 at 4:04 PM
Pretty straightforward. Doing yardwork, didn’t know I touched ivy, went in to take a piss, voila.
January 4th, 2012 at 4:04 PM
damn dude. I got it on my waist line a couple years ago and that was awful, couldn’t imagine it any lower.
January 4th, 2012 at 4:06 PM
no, that’s broken ribs. a herniated dick comes from a far-too-eager ol’ fashioned.
January 4th, 2012 at 4:06 PM

he was never actually “injured” as the cavs had listed on the injury report back in the day. he actually contracted an STD and actually had to practice while wearing what sousedbergin linked to.
January 4th, 2012 at 4:08 PM
BWHAHAHA!
January 4th, 2012 at 4:08 PM
Am I weird for finding it weird that you were out doing lawn work with dirty hands and didn’t wash them first before you touched your pecker?
January 4th, 2012 at 4:10 PM
no, the weird part is that he didn’t just piss outside.
January 4th, 2012 at 4:11 PM
Yes.
January 4th, 2012 at 4:11 PM
i’m gonna be freaked out on the gold course from now on when I’m looking for my golf balls in the woods and shit. If I get poison Ivy on my johnson this summer….
January 4th, 2012 at 4:12 PM
yea…because you’re not dirty until you touch the part of your body that doesn’t have dirt on it. then you wash the hands.
/anyone else weird about washing hands in public bathrooms? i always use a towel to open the door cuz i don’t trust people.
January 4th, 2012 at 4:12 PM

i hope i’m in your 4some (/no homo) when this happens.
January 4th, 2012 at 4:14 PM
Point taken, but it wouldn’t have changed the outcome.
January 4th, 2012 at 4:14 PM
I don’t touch anything but my clothes and toilet paper when I pee but if I came inside from doing lawn work, I would wash my hands when I walked in the house.
January 4th, 2012 at 4:15 PM
always. gas stations are the worst. what always gets me is the gas pumps. you know how many greasy mo-fo’s touch those things all day and I guarantee they never get cleaned, ever. hand sanitizer stays in the door of my truck.
January 4th, 2012 at 4:15 PM

dude…. people where i work are so gross. never wash their hands after a piss and shit. i’m always using a paper towel to open the door.
true story… i work in the office area of a manufacturing plant and there is a sign in the warehouse shitter that says “please throw your soiled TP down the toilet when you flush. please don’t throw away in the trash can”
and i looked down there is a trash can full of soiled TP.
January 4th, 2012 at 4:16 PM
leaves of 3, leave it be.
January 4th, 2012 at 4:16 PM
are you my mother in law?
January 4th, 2012 at 4:16 PM
Absolutely. I will toss that towel on the floor if the can isn’t near the door.
January 4th, 2012 at 4:17 PM

Do you work with a lot of asians? Pretty sure that’s a Chinese thing.
January 4th, 2012 at 4:18 PM
its a Mexican/Puerto Rican thing round these parts
January 4th, 2012 at 4:19 PM
I once watched a chick walk into a gas station bathroom in her bare feet. True story. I hate people
January 4th, 2012 at 4:20 PM
i’m about to yack reading all this public bathroom shit.
/see what i did there? shit… bathroom…?
January 4th, 2012 at 4:20 PM
Meth.

Good God man, you work with a bunch of heathens.

January 4th, 2012 at 5:59 PM
Don’t know which is worse – the original typo or all these comments.
What the hell is wrong with people, indeed.

in countries w/o widespread or with unreliable swere systems (third-world), they put tp in the garbage so there aren;t frequent backups.
the real must work with a company that hires many folks from these countries.
/deductive as hell
January 4th, 2012 at 10:49 PM
I wash my hands every time i use the bathroom. I hate guys that say they dont need to wash their hands because they only took a piss. Wash up every time, bastards
