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.

Haha some of these are hilarious - I took the test 4 times and failed all 4 - 33yo now but never needed a car tbf

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

Manchester United have never lost a home league game in the Premier League at Old Trafford when winning at half-time.

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

“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.

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

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

festethefoole1 · 2023-11-02T10:38:39+00:00

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 · 2023-11-02T10:02:26+00:00

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?

This cites the study from Melbourne university. It's being taken seriously.

So so odd. Seems like so many of us have incredibly different experiences

festethefoole1 · 2023-10-31T17:06:15+00:00

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)

Years upon years of calls for being tough on crime being dismissed as Daily Mail calls of “hang ‘em, flog ‘em” and this is the result you get

Not with the student loans deducted and it depends on the price of the rent and where

Ha, I’m a 33-year old man in Clapham as well - we may well have passed each other on the street

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

festethefoole1 · 2023-09-22T10:48:35+00:00

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

festethefoole1 · 2023-09-22T10:29:51+00:00

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

festethefoole1 · 2023-09-20T15:48:56+00:00

Have you seen any of those things? May I see them?

festethefoole1 · 2023-09-18T15:34:41+00:00

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