At one point, he was cutting some pieces lengthwise; trying to rip some thin, long pieces. What did the guy do? He set the piece on the ground, held it in place with his Teva-clad food and started cutting by pulling the chainsaw towards him.
Luckily for him and us, we didn't hear any blood-curdling screams (because I had turned away), but using a dull cutting tool in that manner is really, truly asking for an accident.

I've seen people do that kind of thing before. Freaks me out. Makes me want to say, "Listen, if you're going to use a chainsaw like that, whatever. Just stop and give me time to get far enough away that I won't hear you scream or feel obligated to stick around and help you get to the hospital."
What in the world do you people have against getting to see someone accidentally saw off a toe or two?
Bring it. I hope he's a gusher.
(Ok...maybe I'm kidding...cause I'd pass the hell out if I saw that.)
PS. I love your drawing, Adam. I tend to appreciate visual aids.
I do what I can Carly.
Generally, my rule for injuries is that I can handle my own all right, but I tend to have an aversion to seeing other people slice themselves up.
yesterday he butchered the orange tree, which provided good shade for my balcony. and today - all day - he's been playing with a wood chipper. i think he cut down the tree just to get his rocks off with the chipper.
and it's very loud. i say we go over there and throw him in, adam.
jk... but i liked that orange tree.
