I mean, it's a broken leg situation at worst (really, my biggest cringe factor was seeing that nobody was wearing shin guards).

That’s like three cinder blocks kind of sliding into you and bouncing off at most.

Or a normal person on a bicycle. Jesus christ my skull would be so deformed from riding while drunk or during night if that was near my home. Now there is one light traffic underpass where I *barely* fit on my bike without lowering my head, but I still always instinctively do it anyway when I approach because I don't want to look like one of those trucks.

Wear a helmet if you're so worried about hitting your head.

Month into a neck injury , 2 weeks with a crick, then a 8 hour visit to the ER. Best the docs can give me is a few muscle relaxers and some 800 mg ibuprofen. Turns out boss at work coulda sent me to their doctor when it first happened but “I was needed for day to day operations” Murica

I hate the opiod epidemic. Now when people legit have pain, they can't get the "good" painkillers because everyone is scared shitless of getting sued. I had a kidney stone about a decade ago, and got percocet to keep me hosed up for a solid month because they loving hurt. Got one last year and I got 8 vicoden (which made me itchy) and a shot of toradol. loving SSSSUUUUUUCCCCCCKKKKEEEEEDDD.

Buy heroin because it’s easier than getting prescription opiates.

Cheaper, too, if you don’t have health insurance.

My friend is a character worker at Universal and injured her back in a car crash in the parking garage while leaving. They told her that she can't be put on light duty because it technically wasn't an accident that occurred on the job, so her options are either stop working or work her hours with a back injury.

Did wound care on a young guy that had his foot run over by a riding mower. It was horribly split in half, long ways. He ended up losing it after a prolonged course of surgeries and wound care. Don't gently caress around with mowers.
