From arbitrary to crash & burn

So how do I know when I've gone from skidding outta control to crash and burn? Well, there's smoke coming out of my ears, my hair is singed, my feet feel like they're burning, I'm leaking fluids, my hood feels like it's dented but my backside is all twisted up and I can't see through all the crap on my glasses. Come to think of it, my body hurts all over. I think the damage is extensive, but repairable. I may just have to live with a tweaked frame for the rest of my life.
