Arrow to the knee

Share definition
Arrow to the knee is kind of a joke that originated from a video game called Skyrim. The line from the game is "I used to be an adventurer like you...then I took an arrow to the knee". Many people like to use the phase "...arrow to the knee" at the end of a sentence to compare themselves to what the person can do, or what they are doing.
Man 1 I used to write like you... until I took an arrow to the knee.
Man 2 What?
Man 1 An arrow to the knee.
Man 2 Sorry to hear that.

When a woman is so amazing,so attractive,so complete,she makes you hard, you need to "adjust" yourself before you could possibly talk to her.
She was so amazing,when she smiled at me,I needed to turn away and "arrange the bamboo" before I could approach her.

1. The proper way to say arrow to the knee. Idk why everybody says arrow TO the knee when he clearly says arrow in the knee.

2. The thing you try to fit in to every website possible.
1. Noob: I was gonna make breakfast, but then I took an arrow to the knee.
Me: No! Its arrow IN the knee!

2. I was going to write a definition on urban dictionary, but then I took an arrow in the knee.

“I Took an Arrow in the Knee” is a catchphrase from the video game The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.
Can most commonly be seen as comments on youtube, hoping other gamers will recognize the comment and give it a thumbs up. or recognize the inside joke on a random video.

Also used as a reason you're no longer doing something awesome.

Incorrect term used by many when trying to sound like they play Skyrim. The correct phrase is Arrow IN the knee. IN THE KNEE.

WRONG
IT'S ARROW IN THE KNEE
GOSH.

A Skyrim reference. What every person you approach says.

Also, this has become an overdone YouTube comment fad.

To say it, you must say "I used to..." and then finish with, "but then I took an arrow in the knee."
I used to be an adventurer like you, but then I took an arrow in the knee.

A meme adopted from Skyrim, in which NPC guards will declare "I used to be an adventurer like you, then I took an arrow in the knee." This quote can been altered to fit any situation."
On forum discussing NBA2k11 servers shutting down:
"I used to play basketball like you, then I took an arrow in the knee."
