Yea, but at least your with a woman.

:'(

Seriously, you should be able to pull that off. You have some decent banter.

I am sure some grammer nazis may attack you moar.

My problems are never finding a woman. Even with I am at my lowest they find me. I don't get it.

I need more money and life security.

PT? Life saver...no lie.

Dunno. I messed it up about 15 years ago being manly, and bullpinning stakes into compacted road base. I was also too manly to go to doctor even though I had insurance. It was really bad for months, but started getting tolerable when I hooked a heating pad to an inverter in the truck, and kept that on whenever I was in there. It's always sore, but when it's good I don't notice it. When it's bad, dropping something on the floor might as well fall to New Jersey for all the chance I have of retrieving it.

I suspect it's a ruptured disc, or something similar, but I've never had it looked at. I don't trust chiropractors, and doctors only give narcotics and surgery, and I'm not interested in either of them. I suppose I could try PT, but I'd have to go to a doctor first to find out what's really wrong. That'll have to wait until I get insurance if I pursue that route.

I agree, but not any PT. I dealt with it many times.

I found an Aqua Therapy place that fixed me. It's not just for people with poor mobility.

However, she is a doctor and part of one of the major Surgical places in Palm Beach.

She does TENS, laser, IR, minerals/rubs, rolling pin, standing on mobile platforms, etc.

Your therapy is really a workout.

That said, so many I have seen in PT just bitch and moan and even just walk out of it.

They never get better.

With only one exception I have had success with PT.
That one time it failed, I had a bucket handle tear of the meniscus, and the "doctor" misdiagnosed it. I went to a doctor I knew back in my home town and he got me in quickly for surgery.
I got bills from the first quack and his PT (in the same office, hmm?) and took them in on crutches post-surgery, and suggested strongly that he eat both bills. I never heard another word about it :D

So much fail. I am looking forward to your pictures in my other thread that you called me out in.

coward/troll.

lol, you wanna see pics of some other guy? Didn't mean to get your emotions stirred up all butthurt, it was just a question in relation to your immature comment. Just be man about it and stop caring what others think of you, especially some dude on the nets. It's the man thread after all.

She was the one that caught you masturbating. You had that thumb totally wrapped around it. She caught it all on her iPhone.

Sucks to be you.

probably rope burns.

Took you two days to come up with that?

Show where the bad touch was on the doll.


If you talking about rope burns its not worth ending it over an internet argument. What you should do is make a long post in L&R about how you were touched as a child. Tell us all about it.

It's early, I'll talk yesterday. I mowed the lawn with a push mower, trimmed the edges with a push edger. Road my bike into the hills, again no engine. Washed all my gloves. Didn't complain to anybody.
I held my breath for over an hour today. And survived.
Those were just the exhales.

Shaved my beard, grew it back in 30 minutes. Saw Chuck Norris, made him cry, cured cancer.
