Somewhat OT, but I don't do pain well. Have asked to be knocked out 100% for oral surgeries. A few years back, I had no one to drive me, and the dentist wouldn't knock me out. I had some local anesthetic, and used my iphone most of the operation. "Oh this will be 20 minutes"... turned in to 90 minutes. I videoed several minutes of my operation (is "surgical selfies" a thing?) mostly to keep me distracted from the pain (yes, I still felt pain). Years later, the dentist still remembers me, even though I'm rarely there ("pink iphone, video the root canal!").
Strangely most people don't want to watch my root canal surgery. It's on picasa - perhaps I should put them on youtube...
