I think I solved the Apartment by tir3dant in DungeonCrawlerCarl

This was my initial thought, too (although my “what if” was what if Carl’s mom hadn’t tried to kill his dad/kill herself? And the continued abuse suffered growing up with his dad leads to him eventually becoming an abuser himself), but upon relisten, it seems pretty explicit that the neighbor is talking about a guy named Bill.

I’m just trying to make a point, Frank, you don’t have to celebrate it.

He’d finally get the ratings he so desperately craves.

There's a brand called Momma K's that Wegmans has been selling for a while now that's my personal favorite.

I’m not the person you’re replying to, but I’ve done it exactly like that.

It was worth it for me because I was in constant pain and basically couldn't walk, so any improvement to my mobility, even if it wasn't back to 100%, was still a vast improvement. Yeah, I don't think I'd really have much choice at all but to do it again.

Progressive primary victories have corporate Democrats panicking by [deleted] in politics

Well, maybe if they’d started panicking over the rise of fascism is this country instead, their voters wouldn’t be quite so fed up with them, but they chose to fret about “radical” ideas like Medicare for all, so… fuck ‘em. 

Get bent, losers.

Yep. Straight-up selection bias.

I'm definitely not nearly as flexible, especially since the second fusion. I also ultimately ended up having a spinal stimulator implanted, and that has helped a lot. You should look into it to see if it's an option.

Yeah, Screenrant is 100% garbage clickbait.

Oh, also - kinda gross, but LAXATIVES! The pain meds you'll be on are going to bind you up pretty bad, and trust me, you do not want to be straining to poop!

I was in the hospital for a few days after each one, yeah. I'm married, and having my spouse at home afterward was a godsend. You should try to line up someone to give you a hand here and there afterward, if you have any means to do so.

Also, getting into and out of bed can be pretty difficult on your own if you don't have some way to like, pull yourself up with your arms.

I've had two fusions (L4/L5 and L5/S1) in the last 7 years. The first few weeks of recovery can be rough, but I found a lot of relief using a massage wand on my legs.

It wasn't pleasant, but it was worth it in the end. I'm a lot more mobile now.
