The OP is right about the knees. Also, if the pain doesn't go away, you've permanently damaged your cartilage or something important.
When you get old your knees will hurt whether you kneel or not.
When you get real old it will hurt whether its your knees or not.
Welcome to the future.

My knees hurt pretty much all the time. I'd like to claim it's old age, and that doesn't help, but I've had it off and on (often triggered by sport) since I was about 20.
However, did they give you kneeling pads? Builders always wear them if they are doing work that requires kneeling.
My knees hurt when I do something that hurts my knees.
Well yeah. It doesn't help that I kicked in the knees hard enough to leave bruises at least a couple of times a month.
did they give you kneeling pads? Builders always wear them if they are doing work that requires kneeling.
No, just the jeans I had on between my knees and the cold unforgiving metal of the scaffolding. I have noticed my dad now puts a pad (similar to this) under his knees/back whenever he's crawling around doing stuff on the family vehicles. Given that he and I have basically the same body, it's probably not long before I'm toting around a foam pad all weekend.
You're missing your arm? That seems post-worthy.
Ha! I actually considered re-wording that due to the arm thing, but then thought, nah, no one's reading that closely.
Hey, this thread doesn't look likely to be full of productive earnestness that my wisecrackin' ways will spoil! Guess what? DONGS!
I do still want to talk about lasers, though.
When did "sharting" become a commonly accepted thing? Or I mean a commonly accepted term. It sorta snuck up on me.
There is no urban etymology dictionary with, like, dated citations, and I expect google n-gram searching will be of little use.
It seems like it's just been the past couple of years at latest, though.
"Shart Tank" would be a very gross reality show.
Of course that's already a thing.
I am running out of things to say about poop. How do three-year-olds do it?
That's no way to take this thread to 1000, Sifu.
I actually just googled "1000 poop jokes" but that was the most promising candidate and it's pretty...
lame.
Anyhow, you know anything on the shart thing?
I'm pretty sure their nature is to sneak up on you.
I meant the word, geez, super gross. Yes obviously nobody expects a fart to take a turn like that. The world is unknowable and grand.
Around Fruit-of-the-loom, 1870 is still talked about in hushed tones.
The best I generally can do is date searches through Google groups. Starts picking up in the mid-2000s. But then found this: The story is filled with comedic moments that you haven't seen before, including a pillow liberation episode and one that coins the term "sharting" --don't ask, I won't tell you. from early 2004. About Along Comes Polly (which I saw). And here is the clip (Phillip Seymour Hoffman.).
Going to see if I can find any groups mentions before that. Most are misspellings of "sharing" or things like that.
41: man, it would be the equal of the identification of that rock if you actually pinned down the coining.
I would watch the clip, but Blume is asleep next to me, and some tiny voice in my head is telling me that might not be smart.
I think it's just disgusting that you flaunt your private meetups with other unfogged commenters, Sifu.
As far as I can tell, the Car Talk guys never had a theater department and, therefore, were unable to hire anyone named Mel O'Drama to run it.
44: It's mild. PSH talking to Ben Stiller.
So far everything before then is a typo that I can find on Google Groups search before then.
And: Executive producer Jenni Konner agreed, but for a much different reason: "Well, you know, my friend [writer/director] John Hamburg made up the word, 'sharting.' The first time it was used was in 'Along Came Polly,' and I wouldn't use it because, to me, it's already been done as perfectly as it can be done."
Anyway, people seem to give Hamburg ("Meet the Parents" & "Zoolander") credit, and I cannot find anything otherwise. A pretty public coining if he really did originate it.
I have some vague memory of seeing an urban dictionary definition of a word that was synonymous with shart but wasn't shart.
Nothing whatsoever to do with poop, but instead revisiting the "how many 5-year-olds could you take down" question: http://www.explosm.net/comics/3073/
I've been revising my estimate downwards. Five year olds are pretty tough.
Poop Poop Lagoon 2: Lagoon Goo, starring Shia LaBeouf.
51: You're probably overcooking them.
A couple of summers ago, 3 seven year-olds and a six year-old took me down convincingly enough that I actually started to panic a little.
And yet Obama wants to take your guns and leave you defenseless.
Sifu, you kid's friends are going to adore you. Their parents will either loathe you for teaching their kids new poop jokes or thank god that your spoken poop word open mic sessions wear their kids out before bedtime.
