  Theater of Pain
Living at the epicenter of the Mattoon Algonquin Round Table - the movie theater was the hangout area for all high school kids not lucky enough to go make out in the woods - wasn't all it was cracked up to be.
Seven fifteen seemed a most peculiar time to have a job interview at a movie theater; the lobby was halfway full of people heading into the evening shows.
To be honest with you, I'd never fancied Shii-Ann the brightest bulb in the office - she wasn't in any particular danger of breaking the top 10, really - but we'd never really had any personal battles or knock-down, drag-out fights.

  Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome Assessment and Evaluation - Massage Magazine
However, pain is not always relieved with rest, as this is somewhat dependent on the position of the knee during rest.
A common pattern with PFPS is for the person to report an increase in pain if they sit for a long period with the knee in flexion, such as after traveling for a lengthy trip in a car or airplane, or sitting in a movie theater.
If, on the other hand, the pain is arising from more superficial tissues around the knee, such as the quadriceps retinaculum, it may be easy to reproduce the characteristic pain the client has been reporting by palpating this region.

 Understanding and Treating Pain
Pain is the most common reason patients visit a physician, so it stands to reason that pain is the number one complaint of our pre-hospital patients as well.
For example, typical reports are of jaw pain associated with the deep substernal pressure during a myocardial infarction or shoulder pain with diaphragmatic irritation seen in a perforated gastric ulcer.
Since the purpose of somatic pain is to warn the body of potentially harmful situations, the natural reaction to pain is to withdraw from it as fast as possible.

 village voice > theater > Thom Pain (based on nothing) by Charlotte Stoudt
Pain's got a graduate brain, but his heart (like many) is remedial, struggling to keep his mortal awareness from sliding into fetal-positioned self-pity.
The show inadvertently echoes this imbalance: Eno's fragmented stories of relationships—early on there was a dog, later a girl—are not nearly as compelling as his connection with words, or his fascination with the nature of theater as a metaphoric space for the human condition: intrinsically empty, but made rich and strange by acts of imagination.
The first barely amuses; by the fifth, we're way ahead and wondering what time it is. I'm all for a playwright frustrating an audience's desire to see into a character's soul, but only if the payoff is worth the wait.

 Theater of Pain
"Catatonic" confesses, "Your pain excites and it tests me," and "Supremacist" gloats, "Your pain's my f---ing ecstasy." "Black Serenade" finds the band feasting on the fears of the tortured: "Walk on through a tortured mind/You'll scream your song in time/...
One of the darkest songs on all the albums I listened to was Trivium's "Departure." "Razors kiss the vein, overdose for pain," growls Matt Heafy.
Interestingly, hedonism has never regained the allure it enjoyed during the '80s metal heyday, when the pursuit of all things feel-good ruled.

 The New York Times > Theater > Theater Reviews > Theater Review | 'Thom Pain (based on nothing)': ...
It's one of those treasured nights in the theater - treasured nights anywhere, for that matter - that can leave you both breathless with exhilaration and, depending on your sensitivity to meditations on the bleak and beautiful mysteries of human experience, in a puddle of tears.
Eno's voice, or rather the voice of Thom Pain, the ostensible narrator who is also, ostensibly, that dazed and changed little boy, is alternately lyrical and affectless, ecstatic and flat, sardonic and sincere.
To sum up the more or less indescribable: "Thom Pain" is at bottom a surreal meditation on the empty promises life makes, the way experience never lives up to the weird and awesome fact of being.

 Marina Abramovic
My own engagement with painful performance is born of a desire to understand what happens when we watch such spectacles and why we do so.
In addition to wearing the cap and boots this time, which evoked her Eastern Bloc upbringing, she sometimes opened out the cloth with which she blotted the cuts on her stomach and tied it to the staff, waving it as a flag.
These accessories and the music suggested an association between her tears and the pain of memory, clearly marking Abramovic's cross-over from the visual art world into a performance genre more closely allied with theater.

 Charleston City Paper: Arts: Theater: THEATRE | No Pain, No Gain
Brooklyn playwright Will Eno's Pulitzer Prize finalist one-hander Thom Pain (based on nothing) is a 75-minute work that could be called a thought piece or an exercise in existentialism, or even a Beckettsian exploration of futility.
Thom Pain lives in a world of disappointments, and he likes to set you up for them too.
He's a lone antihero, trapped in his musings on pointlessness, who takes us into his cluttered mind and into the childhood incidents that shaped him — a man who, underneath his seeming coldness, is desperate for connection with other people.

 Knee, secretary's definition - Medical Dictionary definitions of popular medical terms
PFS characteristically causes vague discomfort of the inner knee area, aggravated by activity (running, jumping, climbing or descending stairs) or by prolonged sitting with knees in a moderately bent position (the so-called "theater sign" of pain upon arising from a desk or theater seat).
Initial pain management is icing, anti-inflammatory drugs (Advil/Motrin; Aleve) and avoiding motions which irritate the kneecap.
Changes in training that may have led to the PFS pain should be reviewed and running shoes examined for proper biomechanical fit to avoid repeating the painful PFS cycle.
