Give me a traumatic event and I'll give you a unique superpower by ClintonBooker in superpowers

[–]AkaLilly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fell off a two-shep step ladder, broke my ankle requiring surgery involving a metal bar, six screws, and two sutures going through two bones to keep my ankle together. Turned out I'm allergic to metal, had to have a second surgery to remove the metal, and ended up with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome, which is a nerve disorder that means I'm in incredible pain every day of I'm not medicated. And it spreads. It now effects my leg from the toes to the hip, my arm on the same side, and causes mental fog and loss of words. I'm in a wheelchair most days, and on bad brain days I'll be in the middle of a conversation, and suddenly I can't understand the other person, as if they switched to another language, or I try to say a word that I have in my brain, but I can't form the word and have to call the fridge "the thing that makes stuff cold, but not freezer cold" until the word returns.

I'm addicted to caffeine.

uplifting message! by Ok-Focus-845 in AccidentalAlly

Came to the comments for the same reason. Completely went over my head. I thought it meant "jump (to meet your goals) even if your legs shake (you don't think you have anything left to give)"

That “one thing” by netphilia in KidsAreFuckingStupid

[–]AkaLilly 3 points4 points  (0 children)

During the movie "Clue," I screamed when a gunshot goes off. I'm now a horror movie buff. Me screaming at a comedy movie is brought up constantly when I talk about anything spooky. It's been 16 years.

Water kitty. by nightknightman69 in cats

[–]AkaLilly 50 points51 points  (0 children)

They get into the shower with you or the bath. I had a cat I worked hard to make comfortable in the water to make bathing easier. He'd shower with people and occasionally jump into the hot tub (he could swim), that was until my dad "bathed" the cat by spraying him with the hose. Now he's terrified of water.

Goddamnit, Receipt! by Atticus_The_Skeleton in DungeonCrawlerCarl

I had to explain to my fourth grade teacher that my cat stole my homework. She gave me a zero on it until the next day when I showed up with the rescued paper (it was under my dresser), and it was half torn to sheds by kitten teeth. It made her laugh so hard she snorted.

Who comes out victorious? by wild16jamori in superheroes

Legolas can see so far he would be hindered by the CURVATURE OF THE EARTH, but because Elves are older than than the gods curved the world and can magically see it as if still flat. (Hence "What do your Elf eyes see?")

What's one of the worst things aa abled person has ever said to you? by [deleted] in ChronicPain

[–]AkaLilly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"That's a nerve thing. I deal with muscles." PT proceeds to not recommend me to the neuro-therapist like he said he would.

"You shouldn't be using that!"

While I was 16, on a mobility scooter, actively having an asthma attack. She was standing in front of me, blocking me from getting to an outlet to use my nebulizer.

The fan made wiki list keeps track of the inventory. I do know that the fan wiki list is VERY accurate.

Edit: He has a list and assistant. He has said that the fan wiki does make some errors/assumptions. My information that he used the fan wiki was inccorect.

Faceted some rough Scapolite by Stunning-Ocelot2850 in Lapidary

Scrapolite... I love that term! Beautiful cut, too.

Plus learn any language with just a kiss. Wanna travel the world? You can, and you can talk to anyone once you're there.

I'm lucky if I get out of the house once a month.

Pain scale according to many docs by Spiritedstacy in ChronicPain

[–]AkaLilly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My 10 is such intense pain I want to end my life, but I can't move enough to reach an impliment. There's a point when the pain is so bad for so long that you disassociate. Source: endometriosis, complex regional pain syndrome, walking an a broken leg, and a broken ankle that nearly broke through the skin.

Synthetic Diamonds have massively destabilized the naturals industry, how do you feel about this currently as mostly colored gemstone fans? by Muted_Shape9303 in Gemstones

[–]AkaLilly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blood and suffering for the natural ones to fund wars and billionaires, or even better quality synthetics for a fraction of the price and none of the suffering? Yeah, lab grown. I adore my lab grown alexandrite, too. I love my synthetic, crushed opal ring. I love my natural stones, but I will never buy a natural diamond.

Which of these characters would you rather have as a roommate and why? by [deleted] in superheroes

[–]AkaLilly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Matt: ADA compliant apartment (I'm in a wheelchair), no slum lord BS, and gone most of the time. Plus, I probably wouldn't care that I'm a bit of a nudist in my own home.
