Worst Onion...Ever

I just chopped the most potent onion of my entire life. This onion put me in PAIN. I was really hurting. My eyes were streaming with tears and I was emitting low groans of pain as I continued to chop. I wanted to finish. I wanted to be done with it. I paused ever so slightly to wipe my eyes on my sleeves. My daughter looked on with concern. Half way through my eyes were closed...from consious effort or just swelled with tears I am not sure. I kept chopping with eyes closed. I really did not care if I cut my fingers. The onion must be chopped, and I was convinced that no pain- including cut fingers- would equal the sting of this onion that was terrorizing me! Several groans later, and bending in pain, I triumphed.
