I sustained a stress fracture of the fifth metatarsal completely at random last year. No trauma, no accidents, nothing. Went on a five-day drive and returned to go to work. A week later my foot started hurting really bad. I kept working on it and eventually saw a doctor. Misdiagnosed as plantar fasciitis, and continued to work on it with insoles. After a while I had to get an air boot. Before long it was x-rayed and turned out to be a stress fracture with no apparent origin.
The six month healing process was absolute fucking garbage and I would never do it again. Having nearly two months off of work was nice enough, but I couldn't do much other than lay around elevating my foot. If I tried to get in my computer the pain in my foot would increase tenfold. Crutches to get around anywhere. Showered by laying spread eagle on the floor of the tub, blasting out my asshole with the shower head. Mornings were excruciating as the blood rushed to the fracture site and caused my foot to swell up big and purple. Genuinely the worst injury I've ever had to heal from. I never thought it would get better. I truly thought this was the new normal. You'd think a small stress fracture would be minor. Still hurts here and there but I'm about seven months out and doing a lot better than before.
Have to assume I'm just getting old, I guess.
Yo, guy.. Did you kill that CEO?
FlOuuUrish the PinnKkaAyyyy!
Kill yourself, Elon. Everyone will be sorry then.
I never really thought about just how personal Notepad is for me. Even the Notes app on my phone. I wouldn't want anyone to look through any of it. I write some embarrassing shit. Pointless backstories for my video game protagonists when they don't already have one. Drafts for important upcoming conversations. You name it. Get the fuck out of my space. Fortunately I'm still using Notepad++, but I'm sure Microsoft will slide its dick into that too, eventually.
Oh, no kidding? I either missed that or have forgotten entirely. It's been a few years now.
I've always thought it interesting how Portrait Leah vs Sprite Leah are entirely different people. Sprite Leah is a chill, lanky Gravity Falls type chick who probably crushes beers beneath the bridge, while Portrait Leah is like a lovely Dutch barmaid who probably collects nesting dolls. I dig both, though. Can't go wrong with Leah, boys.
Same. The Libs are projected to win, but I'm really worried about low voter turnout as it was with America's last election. I never want to see that fucking cunt become PM as he so badly craves.
"Tell me.. Do you believe in spy fiction?", Cotton asked condescendingly back during Trump's Russian collusion investigation. Stupid fucking cunt.
All about Feelings
That's how they laughed at me in Starcraft too.
Like this fuckin' douchebag.
It is very important to reaffirm that you are talking to mom in a private chat with mom by referring to her as "mom" as often as possible.
Second-generation Wiggles went hard.
Looking great, Robert!
Fiona's been deep-throating Shrek and raising them kids for years now, and she hasn't received a dime. Just a few earwax candles and roasted slug loaf every night. Hope it's worth it.
I have the exact opposite experience with vaping, but I realize anecdotal evidence is not admissible. I had been smoking roll-your-owns to save money and my use skyrocketed. Switched to a low % nicotine vape and just hit that for the next few years. When my daughter was born and I realized I wouldn't be able to vape in the house anymore, I may as well have gone back to smoking, so I just stopped. Since I had been smoking that low % stuff, I wound up having no withdrawals at all and pretty much walked away unscathed. It can be a great tool for quitting if used responsibly.
I'm interested in this one also. I like the look of it. Currently a long-time Pixel user, but I'm open to other options. It will take a truly good camera to pull me away, though.
Holy fuck. This comment.. Gold does not exist on this platform, but surely there is something worthy to offer.
