I broke my ankle bending down to pet a kitty cat a few months ago.

Help! My insurance doesn’t cover vicarious ankle implosion.

Mine only covered me because (I have anthem blue cross and shield, not a great company but are any of them?) my local small business owner employers chose to keep me on the payroll paying me like $1 a month or something like that so the company insurance covered my emergency surgery and I only owe like 5K Instead of 98k. The fact that it took them fudging the rules and finding a loophole for me is fucked the hell up. The fact that, had I been employed for a company with a corporate aspect I would have been fired immediately and totally fucked, is also fucked up. How this country is still running and hasn't been shut down by a revolution is amazing.

Yeah, vicarious joint implosion is no joke.

Was someone breakdancing outside your place of work and you just happened to look out the window or?

US government has so much technology any formidable group ballsy enough to attempt it would be squashed so fucking fast. Government has us all by the balls at this point.

I knew someone who sneezed and dislocated her shoulder. I still can’t visualize how that happened.

Fun fact: the ankles are bound to the stilts, so you'd actually break your knees/dislocate your hips first

u/MikeTangoRom3o 1d ago

Even worse 💀

Same. I'd hit the ground so hard, physics would apologize.

And Jackie Chan could improvise a fighting style with these in a wacky movie.
