NWI INGO General Thread #26 - Pink Pooping Spiders & Raccons

[tv1217]

My tattoos did not hurt much. A little sting. Removing the one on my arm hurt worse, but it was tolerable.

I fell asleep during all mine. I only have two but the Iron Maiden Trooper one is fairly large and pretty detailed so it took 3 sessions.

NOTE TO SELF

If a doctor says I'm going to cut a V notch in your bone, and break it, then run a couple screws through your foot, and cut off another hunk of bone, that is the time to set a gun on the exam table and ask a simple question:

"Doc, is this gonna hurt?"

Why did you need all this done?

 

[jedi]

Did you tell jedi?

Sry have not been around online as of late.

Because I was in pain 24/7

(Now I’m in a lot more pain but hopefully that is temporary)

Arthritis deformation of the (primarily) big toe joint(s) with bunion complications. A bit more than that, but basically don’t get old or get Rheumatoid Arthritis. The surgeon wanted to fuse several joints in my foot too but I would not allow that.

FWIW I was formally diagnosed with R.A. shortly after my 24th birthday. Literally been fighting R.A. for 40 years. Only a couple joints are severely affected, I’ve been aggressively treating it since it was diagnosed. I give myself shots in the stomach, and take lots of pills.

I survived another night. New pain pills are much better than the old ones.

Took a pill at 9pm, fell asleep about 10pm. Another pill at 2:15am. Then slept until 7am and took another pill about 7:30am.

Yesterday early evening, while moving the pillows around to keep my foot elevated, I hit my toes with a pillow. It felt like I had kicked a wall. Literally seeing stars, and I needed to take a pain pill a couple hours earlier than planned. It still feels like I had a toe impact this morning but the pain is dull.

My Australian Shepherd jumped up on the bed and was walking around looking for a place to curl up near my foot. He tends to collapse down onto the bed so there was a lot of panic while he was attempting to find a spot but thankfully he never came in contact with my leg or foot. At least the dog is comfortable.

This is what happens peeps when you play with PLAYMOBIL. A cautionary tale for the rest of you.

Tattoo?
I don't even keep the same image on my computer backdrop.
Why would I put a permanent image on myself?

Still less painful than stepping on a LEGO in the dark

Max is getting a new vehicle for Christmas. I'm due after 17 years with the same one.

Dark knight symbol full sized across the chest. No issues there

At 63 years old, got my first tattoo this past weekend. Yes, there was pain. Had to fight the other dude that wanted the same purple one I wanted. Life's tough - deal with it dude.

So he retaliates with a blind-side head butt, breaking my glasses and almost bringing tears to my eyes. Oh really, I say. Well here's a knuckle sandwich - Eat it - Eat it, I say. And quit your whining, ya little baby. Yo mama ain't here to protect ya.

Ain't no three year old gonna kick My ass, I don't care how cute he is!

Here it is in all it's glory. Looks a little weathered on my old knarly hand, followed by the little hooligan I had to fight for it. He's a tough little snot.

Another pick up. Most likely Ford or Chevy. Not sure yet.

 

[CTC B4Z]

OK. I thought he was maybe an emotional support train. Or an 'it'

Guessing you got the cam phasers and chains diagnosis?

 

[CTC B4Z]

That's not that big of a job IIRC

 

[CTC B4Z]

Especially if you dumped x amount of thousands into it recently
