This one has the x-rays.

If that bozo had learned how to use a $8.75 auger bit file,
he wouldn't have had to force the drill into the ceiling
which knocked him off the ladder and made him fall on the
bit. Luckily, the bit was very dull and slid off his brain,
or it easily would have diced his gray matter into coleslaw.

He read up some neurosurgery, discovered the surprising low fatality
rate for acute head injuries, and the more likely consequences of
surviving them, then decided to cut his wrists instead ?
