Dude, you didn't have to do it. But thank you anyways! Happy birthday and get better!

Get well soon Patrick.

Why even do this at all, just fucking rest

For all the shit he gets, Patrick is easily the hardest-working Bomber, alongside Jeff. It's really awesome how dedicated he is to this job.

Hey Patrick, good on you for wearing a helmet. Seriously. My fiancee had a terrible bike accident this last summer, and I think the only reason she isn't brain damaged or dead is because of the helmet. I don't give a shit about the scars, I still have her. She's also a very experienced cyclist, finishing the Mountains of Misery 100k ride in the top ten for females. It can happen to anyone. Good on you for making sure Katie still has a husband.

You better share this story on the next bombcast, in all of its painful details !

This is what you get for trying to be healthy! Rest up and feel better.

@patrickklepek I will be massively disappointed if you post up the x-ray of your broken collarbone and someone doesn't immediately Photoshop a copy of Brad photobombing it.

With that said, I've broken my collarbone...twice...in the same place both times. Shit hurts like a bitch, man. Get better soon...and pro tip: make sure you put something underneath the collarbone brace they plan on giving you. Those things itch like a muthafucker.

That really sucks. I tore up some muscles, tendons etc in my leg and was out of work for three weeks. I just went back early last week. Still not seeing 100% recovered in the near future which is tough when that job is 40 hours of on your feet lifting and hauling.

Get better and come back soon.

@patrickklepek I once pulled a similar stunt riding my bike home from a friend's house and tore my knee up pretty bad in the process. Coincidentally, that was the same night that my mom rented me Bubsy 3D. Yeah.

IGN is no longer the property of Rupert Murdoch? Hopefully this is good. Maybe. Not that I see them doing anything other than giving the highest ratings to companies that pay them well.

Thanks for posting the links despite the broken freaking collar bone. Best of luck to you in recovery.

@patrickklepek you should really read this that was linked in a response to the article you linked: http://christopherwhitman.net/blog/?p=549

Sorry to hear about your accident, man. But good on you for soldiering on and still getting us a Worth Reading for this week.

Get well soon!

And on your birthday, too? Lame gift, universe. Get better, Patrick.

Get well soon, Patrick!

I hope you feel better soon. The collar bone is a painful bone to break.

Get Well

Get Well Soon

We wish you to get well

LOL DUMBASS

If you live somewhere where its suitable to ride a bike outdoors in Mid-February, your a bitch.

Linkdumps are cool and shit, but one of my personal goals in life is to never, ever click on a random youtube link. While it's easy to surmise what the articles you link to are about from their URL, I'll simply skip over stuff like youtube.com/whateverthefucknonsensebbq. It would be nice if a little description was included along with the link i.e. youtube.com/whatisthisidonteven (funny cat video).

I hope you feel better soon Patrick! I did a similar thing and split open my chin. Though now I have a fairly gnarly scar across my chin which is better than not having one, so, and I mean this as a good thing, I hope you have some gnarly scars too.

Get better soon.

jeez, hope you were wearing a helmet sir!

Hope to have you back soon Patrick.

I hope all is well and you have a speedy recovery!

I hope you heal up soon Patrick. But take solace in this, there are way worse (and WAY more embarrassing) ways to break your collarbone. Believe me, I've experienced one of them

Good luck, get well soon.

i'm glad this got filed in the proper place. patrick, are you on any cool meds? journal entries for dreams if you are man! get better, duder!

I fully expect a video sometime after your recovery of you walking up to that pothole and unloading a clip into it while screaming Rambo-style. Get better soon!

@patrickklepek

Yer should have had yer copy written up before Thursday ya damn goon! You're getting into a writing cycle similar to me it seems (do shit late). Buck up lad or you're out on your ass. JUST LIKE ME.

Get really better really soon.

Hah, you listen to Cane & Rinse. You should check out the Gaming Cult podcast too, their end of year edition methodology of going through every game, in chronological order, that everyone did or didn't play is insane.

Aw. Get well, Patrick! Collarbones aren't that important, right? They're only right next to your... neck... and arms... and... well. Okay. It might be a little important. Eep.

...hope you get all fixed up and feel nice and not broken soon, Mr Klepek, and I also hope if they can't save your collarbone, that they at least install some kind of awesome robot shoulder into you! With a missile launcher! And a torch!

I hear ya Patrick. Week 5 since I fractured my clavicle. No surgery needed but the brace and pain are no bueno. Hopefully they can put you in a figure-of-eight brace. Heal well good sir!

Ouch, hope you have a speedy recovery.

Man that sounds painful. Get well soon Patrick!

What kind of worth reading is this? These aren't even clickable links.

They're clickable now, but anyway:

Highlight > Right-click > Open in new tab

It's not that hard.

TELL THAT BONE WHATS WHAT YEAH

Get well soon Patrick.

Shit Patrick, didn't expect it on time this week, hope that collar bone isn't giving you too much shit. Thanks for this, heal well man!

Filed under: Bones, Injury

Awesome. Get well soon, Patrick.

Get better Scoops.

Oh shit, get better Patrick

Well, at least you'll have plenty of time to sit in bed and play Fire Emblem, eh Patrick?

Hope you heal up quick Patrick

Advertising Kuchera articles?

C'mon, Patrick.

Patrick, you put in so many great links but completely missed murdered.com. Great work nonetheless, and sorry to hear about your accident. Take as much time as you need, and I hope this cheers you up!

Also I can't actually spot a Skate 3 link in there but the header image reminded me that anyone who loves watching ragdolls do hilarious/bizarre/buggy things needs to watch HelixSnake's and his fellow Skate 3 players' videos.

That video is amazing. The clip with the barrels was hilarious.

That was nice of you to post anything at all, thanks man always love this stuff. Get well and take the bus!

"I'll be in a comma for the next few days, but before I lapse over into a field of medically induced hallucinations I made a WR, enjoy"

Nothing stops the feminist agenda!

:( Poor Patrick

Also, link dumps - the second best kind :o

Patrick, I like your spirit on this one. In fact, I admire the hell out of it. Get better, then kick that pothole's ass.

Very nice of you, Patrick. Never expected to see Worth Reading this week and am almost appalled that you felt it necessary to post it all. Still, thanks for taking the time.

I wish you a speedy recovery.

NOTHING STOPS THE ENDURANCE KLEPEK
