reelatable contemnt
I got to believe sometimes in that theory that when we should’ve died, our consciousness escapes to a parallel reality.
I have had too many close calls. Statistically, I probably shouldn’t be alive.
This one time my motorbikes front brake seized up as I slowed down to an intersection. I was thrown off my bike and landed as the lane cleared.
Then the time I worked as a glazier and this dipshit dropped a giant pane of glass on his toe, which snapped in half and almost decapitated me.
Then another time I was a half-second away from being t-boned on my drivers side door by someone doing 80km/h, thank you videogames for training my spacial awareness and reaction time.
Quote from “dead like me” “Death is kind of like sex in high school. If you knew how many times you missed having it, you’d be paralyzed.”

When I was 10ish, and thus a moron, we found some paving stones, and being morons, decided that breaking them is cool.
So we throw them up into the air, and watch them shatter. My uncoordinated ass throws it up, and it lands smack on the top of my head. Got me a big concussion and permanent spinal damage, leading to my having periodic debilitating neck and shoulder pains basically till I was 22ish and the doctor prescribed weightlifting in addition to muscle relaxants.
On the down side, damaged spine. On the upside, great motivation to consistently hit the gym, haven’t had neck pains in over a decade! On the down side, no cute clothes for girls who do upper body day.
Just embrace being a muscle mommy
Man… kids are indestructible
Kids bones are much more flexible than adult bones. They get harder with age. So a child can withstand much more stuff without breaking a bone than an adult.
Optimised for the mines.
And operating the autolooms
I wish that were true for me. I broke my arms 3 times as a kid lmao.
“We are out of Bort license plates!”
What they wanted to say is that kids’ bones are more bendable, but they cannot take the same force than an adult’s bone. It is a benefit in some situations and a detriment in others. Maybe the flexibility was anon’s dumb luck in that case.
