  • it feels like my skeleton is fusing together
  • stabbed all over: that is the feeling in my head/neck/back/guts
  • my head feels like a cell that is about to divide
  • my brain is being crushed by giant hands
  • I feel like that guy in the Bible what got a tent stake through the head
  • I feel like a good trepanning may help the situation
  • it feels like someone is squeezing my spinal column
  • OWWW, barometric pressure: I am sensitive to it!
  • that xacto blade just fell through my finger (the eternal model building hazard)
