Who knew avocados were so dangerous?

On Tuesday’s episode of “The View,” co-host Joy Behar revealed she had to miss work Monday because she’d sliced open her hand cutting an avocado.

“Saturday night, on my way to the event at the retreat, I stabbed myself in the hand with a knife,” she explained. “I was trying to desperately eat something, so I was trying to open an avocado. So I stuck the knife into the pit to get it out … and I stabbed myself!”

At the hospital, where the 75-year-old stayed overnight and was administered an antibacterial drip to ward off infection, Behar was told that this sort of accident happens all the time.

Exactly so!

There's something really screwy about this story; maybe there's more to it/she just lying about why she didn't show up someplace!

The ER doctor told her that next time she wants to remove the seed, use a gun.

We had a carpenters apprentice on a job I was on at aged 12 let his SkilSaw cut right through a plywood concrete form

Hot is upper thigh and hip with a grinding fury

Blood everywhere....all over that red clay construction yard

Superintendent and our oldest best black hand tried to stop it and a young fresh from Vietnam mean green reached up in his leg to grab the arteries but it was too ripped

He just had this blank look as he laid there and was motionless soon enough...I cried and so did some of the men including the grizzled old iron worker Forman holding me

The young man was maybe 19-21 and we’d just all been yucking it up at lunch in the shade me listening to them talk hunting and poontang

By the time the ambulance which back then was a station wagon just to take u to hospital got there he was the color of cured concrete

We quit early

The old black man includkng living on property...told me “master charlie , it wus just that poor boys time wasn’t nothing nobody could do”

That nomenclature is old English custom for the gentrys youngest name bearer....he’d worked for my grandpa and dad since he was orphaned and just showed up at grandpas house farm alone needing help at 15

With us 40 years....taught me hunting and that doctor tichenor was more than just an antiseptic and a working man opens his filterless smokes from opposite end

48 years later I still see him

A black wiry part Choctaw mini me of my grandpa

Khaki pants and shirt...

Acme roughout ropers

Aluminum miners hat

Stabs herself with a knife, spends night in Hospital? I think there is more to this story. Is she being abused by her hubby(like the libs say about Melania) and is she hiding something by having to stay over night(like Melania)? Trump was out of the country, maybe he has a hand in this! LoL!!!!

"interesting tip; thanks!"

Oh it gets better, you can peel the skin off really easy after you cut it into 1/4's. it avoids scooping out the flesh of the avocado and scraping against the skin. Try it !

she’d sliced open her hand cutting an avocado.

I only regret she wasn't holding it with her throat.

Don’t know about the avocado, but I’ll bet the vodka was Russian.

If I didn't have my tool, I would; however, the tool does it all AND slices it to boot. :-)

There are now tools that even have a part that will cut open the avocado, now, so that there's no need for a knife at all. But since mine is still as good as it was when I bought it.
