... and then having to get it removed in the emergency room.

Just when you thought people could not get any more retarded something like this happens. Well a 16 year old I was playing at school thought it would be interresting to put a go stone up their nose. Why? don't ask me but it happened. That certain somebody then got sent to the emergency room cause he had a piece of slate wedged up in his nose. I pity his stupidity

(Sebastian:) I did exactly that when I was 1 or 2 years old, only that it wasn't a go stone. If I was that much retarded at that age already, I must have a negative IQ by now.

axd: QED! LOL

naruto3 you know what i meant this guy was 16 lol

C.S. Graves: This story reminds me of an episode of Home Movies... I imagine a modified rendition of the episode's musical number... "Don't put go stones up your nose (put them in there/do not put them in there)"

MrShin: They were marbles. That was hilarious.

hotcoffee: I get go stones up my nose quite a lot. Usually if i'm winning, or just played a severe tesuji. My girlfriend enforces strict rules as to where the Go stones not on the board go when the go stones on the board don't go where she wants. She has strength of character.

kevinwm: Having to go to the hospital with a Go stone up your nose is gote. Though I guess there are worse places a stone could be stuck...

jwaytogo: Here are a few more proverbs from someone who nose (knows) best, and to be honest, it should be as plain as the nose on your face:

  1. Blowte your nose, but do not nose your blowte.
  2. To stop a running stone, the nose tesuji is often employed. To stop a running nose, the stone tesuji is not a good idea.
  3. In case you get curious, go stones are odorless and tasteless, but are still good to eat.
  4. One should practice wedge and the nose tesuji on the goban, not on one's own face...
  5. Suggestions for improvised go bowls do not include body cavities.
  6. If you are going to store a stone up your nose, one nostril is good enough, two will mean you run out of breathing space.
  7. Learn to play joseki, not noseki.
  8. When they suggested you develop a nose for tesuji, this is not what they meant.
  9. Some holes in your formation need not be patched.
  10. A live group needs two eyes. A live player also needs other facial features.
  11. If despite all this good advice, and you still end up with a stone up your nose, we promise not to rub your nose into it.
