Surgeons eventually have to clear it, occasionally along with the rest of the limb.

Dad Ribs So What

I did a bit of googling around.

First of all the guy in that picture is called Kirill Tereshin. He needed an operation to have the muscle drained, unsurprisingly, but has since been back on the synthol to a slightly more moderate degree. He also now (as of May this year) wants to get breast implants and possibly transition to a woman.

Relatedly, your body does apparently clear synthol on its own. Body builders who use it have to do so regularly to maintain the volume. The only estimate I've seen for the time it'd take for someone like Tereshin to go back to "normal" on his own is 5-7 years, and even then he's likely to have done permanent muscle and tissue damage if he doesn't have a stroke or get an infection earlier.

There are also reports that he was kinda poor and so he was using a home-made concoction of olive oil, lidocaine and benzyl alcohol (synthol is a mix of oil, lidocaine and alcohol) and he had injected nearly 8kg of the stuff into his arms. The latter bit seems reliable, I'm not sure if the fact he was using olive oil can be substantiated.

Yeah especially since olive oil isn't the cheapest. Or maybe he was using small packets he stole from the buffet.

There was an old man in my town who I believe was drat near 90 or more when he died recently, and would still walk up and down the road, talk to the younger (to him, like middle aged) women and flirt with them, something of a character. He wasn't well educated. He once complained about the lesbians with the tattoos, which he pronounced as "lebions with the cantunes".

I've travelled this old world of ours from Cali to Alsance
Ive had water in Michigan and didnt poo poo my pants
I drove a brand new Tesla car and it only killed one man
Ive met with Jordan Peterson and his one and only fan
I saw a congress brawl, and the finished border wall
But Ive never met a nice Australian!

In the first one, the joke is that the guy's name is HaHa Clinton-Dix.

In the second one, that's the check engine light, which (usually) means there's a non-urgent problem with the car and you should fix it/get it fixed, but a lot of people just leave it alone.

That's the check engine light. They have a...less than good reputation as they seem to just come on at random then lead to dishonest mechanics telling you that you need tons of expensive work even though the vehicle runs fine. It's nicknamed the idiot light.

The joke is the light is on but the driver will ignore it forever.

It's not true because he would have given himself giant forearms and not biceps if he was such a big fan of olive oil.
