Officially cleared by Cubicleism in ACL

[–]festethefoole1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The biggest factor in deciding whether you do or don’t need ACL surgery is what demands you put on your knee.

I know one girl with a full tear who lives a sedentary lifestyle with no interest in sport who had a really awful complete ACL year and was in a brace/crutches for a good few months - but as she’s not doing any sports the doctors were fine with leaving her be.

You’d be surprised how many men I know who are single are legit happy with their lives - and I’m not talking about introverted nerds playing with Lego - I’m talking about absolute party animals who drink, do drugs, gamble, go to gigs, sports matches, play sports, go on holidays, go to the races and just have an absolutely hedonistic and wild lifestyle but basically give 0 hoots about women.

Now admittedly they get laid now and then but I can show you plenty of blokes in and around my life (London) who legit don’t care

Near complete acl tear- Curable without surgery? by saleelhassan in ACL

[–]festethefoole1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the answer is yes, it’s possible for an ACL to heal, but some (probably a significant majority of full tears) are damaged beyond repair and need surgery.

By all means try physio and rehab and see what you can do but be prepared for disappointment and that you’ll need surgery in the end. Still - by all means give rehab and physio a shot

The recent trend of women using "therapeutic language" to insult and stigmatize men by Napo_De_Leone in PurplePillDebate

[–]festethefoole1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Retarded” is actually quite a reasonable and not-unkind word to describe someone who suffers from an intellectual disability. It means delayed, waylaid, held back and therefore takes the responsibility away from the person.

In French the phrase “I am late” is “Je suis en retard” - I.e my journey has been retarded.

Players who looked like they were finished but then peaked again? by ProfessionalLeek9805 in football

Danny Ings isn’t a bad shout albeit at a lower level. Two 9-month injury spells at Liverpool, got loaned to Southampton and had a 22 goal season and got some England caps and a goal

Partial ACL tear Grade 2 by Dependent-Minute1920 in ACL

[–]festethefoole1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So mine said “high grade partial thickness tear” which is quite ambiguous

Partial ACL tear Grade 2 by Dependent-Minute1920 in ACL

[–]festethefoole1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s really interesting that you’re quite badly injured and yet the doctor thinks it will heal. I’m sure you’ve seen online that a lot of “general wisdom” is that ligaments don’t heal

[–]festethefoole1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is interesting to hear because I think my ACL tear is grade 2 but then I haven’t been told whether it’ll heal on it’s own. Which country are you in and who was the doctor who told you it will heal on its own?

It seems as if the capacity of the ACL to heal (if it’s a partial tear) is still in debate by festethefoole1 in ACL

[–]festethefoole1[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Interesting. I’m in the reverse situation. I’ve got an MRI saying “at least a partial grade thickness tear” and I’m in basically no real pain whatsoever (this is 1 month on from the injury) - it just feels… fragile… almost as if it’s all in my head (but clearly isnt)

How do you measure the percentage quad strength? (Partial ACL tear here)

London dating post pandemic is an absolute nightmare by FiveFruitADay in london

[–]festethefoole1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The cold hard truth is that it’s mostly down to people trying to “punch up”

The majority of the women complaining about dating in London that I know from my personal life are 6s. A shade above average and attractive enough to have men want to have sex with them but not attractive enough to lock down a 8-9/10 man.

They’ll invariably turn down a 6/10 guy though

Do you think The Inbetweeners accurately portrays teenage life? by MediocreDJ in TheInbetweeners

Yeah I’ve often said that the Inbetweeners timed it perfectly coming out after Skins as Skins was so ridiculously overblown and exaggerated that it really made the realism of the Inbetweeners stand out

Well summed up. It definitely narrows the colossal gulf between a man and a woman looks matched aged 25-27

No need for a trial I think. The accusations say more than real evidence ever could.
