I'm on my phone so I cant link it but on Patricks twitter it says he broke his collerbone riding home, and on his birthday. I just wanted to say, along with the rest of the community to get well soon! Who else is gonna get those scoops!?

EDIT: Linked here

I just saw the tweet. I would embed it if I knew how. That sucks though. I hear that hurts like a bitch.

And on his 21st birthday too, so sad. RIP Patrick.

Jeez, what a shitty way to end a birthday.

#5 Posted by Sackmanjones (4193 posts) - 4 months, 11 days ago

@BaneFireLord on the bright side I guess he got to enjoy most of his day....right?

#6 Posted by DrDarkStryfe (810 posts) - 4 months, 11 days ago

He went from Scoops to Spills.

Get well soon :)

#8 Posted by Strife777 (1036 posts) - 4 months, 11 days ago

That's a bummer. Could've been worst though.

#9 Posted by wjb (840 posts) - 4 months, 11 days ago

Shit. Hopefully it wasn't anything major that would require surgery.

Ouch

Get well soon Patrick!

#13 Posted by Cerberus3Dog (107 posts) - 4 months, 11 days ago

I does hurt like hell. Take it easy duder, let the bone heal naturally. On your birthday, that blows.

#14 Posted by Hizang (8534 posts) - 4 months, 11 days ago

Ryan dug the pothole, confirmed!

#15 Posted by Patman99 (1328 posts) - 4 months, 11 days ago

Oh holy shit. Is the bike ok???

I'm just kidding, that sounds terrible... I hope he can salvage a good birthday somehow.

#16 Posted by joshthebear (2399 posts) - 4 months, 11 days ago

Fuck, that sucks. Get better Scoops.

it was a joke because he looks young and is disgustingly skinny

the reason his collarbone broke is he is made out of sticks

(serious though, get well soon p-dawg)

Ouch those collarbones hurt. I broke mine when i was a kid. Get well soon Patrick.

#20 Posted by ShadowConqueror (2600 posts) - 4 months, 11 days ago

I can't wait until all the posts about how potholes hate Patrick and are ruining Giant Bomb.

#21 Posted by DeathByWaffle (598 posts) - 4 months, 11 days ago

Damn son, that sucks. Breaking your collarbone can't be fun (I've never broken any bone myself, but I'd imagine any bone being broken has to suck).

#22 Edited by BaconGames (2509 posts) - 4 months, 11 days ago

It must have been my Paul Rudd SNES gif that caused him to get distracted. Damnit I never meant for this to happen!

patricks gonna have a huge 1up over everyone when he hits 40, as he'ill probably look 30 to people.

That is why Cool Baby gave us 2.

#25 Posted by Kerned (1131 posts) - 4 months, 11 days ago

That sucks! I hope you have a quick recovery, duder. I broke my elbow very badly about a year ago. It wasn't an experience I want to relive. You have my sympathies. #teamcollarbone

#26 Posted by C0V3RT (1164 posts) - 4 months, 11 days ago

Bummer! What better way for a Bears fan to recouperate by brushing up with "Quarterback Attack with Mike Ditka." Who doesn't love an FMV game staring former Chicago Bears legend Mike Ditka? Here's to a speedy recovery.

Potholes are the quick time events of cycling.

I laughed a little too hard at this.

Get well soon, Patrick! That sounds painful as heck. I assume we'll be seeing neck-brace Patrick in the office (assuming it's that kind of injury).

#28 Posted by edgeCrusher (63 posts) - 4 months, 11 days ago

I was going to post this as a joke during the podcast (superbowl talk), but drinking and riding a bike is more dangerous than drinking and driving a car. Balance is your friend, and the first thing that goes when you consume alcohol. Still, get well soon man, Giant bomb doesn't forget it's own.

Yikes that's rough shit.

#31 Posted by JamesJeux007 (300 posts) - 4 months, 11 days ago

Well, if he's joking about it on Twitter, at least we know it's not that serious. Get well and watch a lot of X-Files !

#32 Posted by mlarrabee (1879 posts) - 4 months, 11 days ago

That piece is important. And very painful when broken, or so I've heard.

Here's to a swift and (as much as is possible) painless recovery, Patrick!

#33 Posted by Demoskinos (9498 posts) - 4 months, 11 days ago

At first I thought that this was going to be someone just being a dick to Patrick again but damn this is...an unexpected turn of events.

#35 Posted by demonknightinuyasha (421 posts) - 4 months, 11 days ago

That is a huge bummer any day of the week. Get well soon Patrick!

#36 Posted by rjayb89 (7584 posts) - 4 months, 11 days ago

The combined hatred of Patrick in these forums willed that pothole into existence. Good job, you guys.

#37 Posted by MistaSparkle (2092 posts) - 4 months, 11 days ago

My friend broke my other friends collar bone in middle school, so he punched him in the eye...you should punch that pothole, or your bike, in the eye.

Get better, duder! More time for you to play Fire Emblem!
