Legs sure cost a lot

submitted by PenisEnvy to whatever 2 monthsFeb 13, 2025 11:47:01 ago (+35/-1)     (whatever)

Ordered my new leg. I picked a nice one that will make it easy to walk normally. $24,850 dollars for the thing. Insurance will pick up $6000 of it since they will only pay for the base model "stick with receiver". Fucking jews!

Since i am going back to work the investment will be worth it but the insurance deal pisses me off. I pay about $6200 in premiums each year. It is not like I want a olympic runners leg or anything. Just one I can work a 10 hour day and not bitch about it.

I still want something junky though for gag jokes at the shooting range.

You have a healthy, positive attitde. Sorry 'bout the leg woes.

we need to rethink this whole insurance thing. stop paying these bastards. if you had saved your premiums and told the surance' thieves to get bent for ten years you would have an artificial leg AND a new boat/truck/toy/whatever

Unfortunately it costs a whole hell of a lot more to Lose a body part than it does for the replacement!
That's another screwed up thing about the insurance/medical industry fraud/system that we have to deal with today.

He damn well might. You don't fuck with a one legged man with a plan.

Considering your original leg was priceless, 25grand for a new leg, albeit an artificial approximation of a leg, is an absolute steal. Especially for a nice one.

[ - ] Peleg 2 points 2 monthsFeb 13, 2025 19:20:42 ago (+2/-0)*

I had a friend who had lost a leg. He would put his fakey on backwards and tell everyone that he didn't know if he was coming or going! LOL!
@Anus_Expander is right. You need one that is hollow to hold rum and stuff.
I always thought that if I ever lost a leg I would want a fakey that was also a gun, like the one Cherry Darling had. Hahaha.

Edit to add about this other guy I know who had lost a leg. He said he was in a bar and some guys started getting mouthy so he busted a beer bottle across the fake leg and stood up with the broken bottle and said something along the line of, "COME ON MFR'S LET'S GOOOO!" And everyone got very congenial. LOL

How did you lose the leg you were born with?

[ - ] PenisEnvy [op] 1 point 2 monthsFeb 13, 2025 20:03:09 ago (+1/-0)

small cut on foot that got infectd and went into the bone then caused sepsis.

[ - ] PostWallHelena 0 points 2 monthsFeb 13, 2025 20:26:54 ago (+0/-0)

I have nightmares about that sort of thing happening.

[ - ] 3Whuurs 0 points 2 monthsFeb 14, 2025 01:16:40 ago (+0/-0)

Fuck !
How long did that take?

[ - ] PenisEnvy [op] 0 points 2 monthsFeb 14, 2025 07:03:49 ago (+0/-0)

About a week

[ - ] 3Whuurs 0 points 2 monthsFeb 14, 2025 22:06:59 ago (+0/-0)

A week from the cut, to a certainty it had to come off?

[ - ] carnold03 0 points 2 monthsFeb 15, 2025 18:46:50 ago (+0/-0)

How'd that happen?

[ - ] Anus_Expander 2 points 2 monthsFeb 13, 2025 18:23:06 ago (+2/-0)

Hollow it out so you can fill it with rum

Fellow cyborg here!

Rock on! Ride free!

[ - ] PenisEnvy [op] 0 points 2 monthsFeb 13, 2025 20:00:58 ago (+0/-0)

how long did it take to get used to walking on it? Is it true you get phantom pain from a leg aand foot that isnt there anymore?

[ - ] WhatColorIsYourTigerCage 1 point 2 monthsFeb 13, 2025 19:16:29 ago (+1/-0)

Can you get a leg with a 12 gauge hidden in it?

That would probably go I've pretty well at the range.

Extra points if you can blast a clay pigeon 🐦 from the air with it!

[ - ] Indoctrinated_USA 1 point 2 monthsFeb 13, 2025 19:07:44 ago (+1/-0)

I always thought those blade legs were fucking cool.
I'm not saying be a leach but if you posted a gofundme, I'd bet that shit would be funded in a day.
Post some rah rah service story on the funding page, offer a handwritten thank you as a tier bonus then have someone throw it on Patriots.win and you're golden.

the type of help i have gotten is my buddies helping my family, sanding the driveway, bringing in wood, securing the house, and basically being the men who did the same i would do if their chips were down. i will definetly have a cook out for them in appreciation.

Get a peg leg, then you have a built-in Halloween costume.

Just tell them with that money all you can afford is a 3D printer and a mask

You could have one with 'spare parts' that fall off when you hit certain buttons/areas on it.

Or one that looks like a minigun.

Or one that has lego attachments you could build shit on.

A basic leg with some 3d printing could get you all sorts of jokes and ideas.

[ - ] drstrangergov 0 points 2 monthsFeb 13, 2025 20:16:25 ago (+0/-0)

you have the perfect opportunity to become a pirate.

Yes, Legos do cost a lot now.

[ - ] WNwoman 0 points 2 monthsFeb 13, 2025 16:20:47 ago (+0/-0)

Best of luck with all this. I admire your positive attitude.

[ - ] CasualObserver -2 points 2 monthsFeb 13, 2025 12:20:45 ago (+1/-3)

maybe you should have thought of that before you ate all those cookies and got the betis.

[ - ] PenisEnvy [op] 13 points 2 monthsFeb 13, 2025 13:02:01 ago (+13/-0)

no diebetus. got a small cut on my foot that got infected. gave me bone infection and sepsis. Probably the fat fucks thatt got the dietbetus driving up the price of thise spare parts though.

[ - ] CasualObserver 4 points 2 monthsFeb 13, 2025 15:37:52 ago (+4/-0)

solid response.
best of luck with the new leg.

[ - ] CasualObserver 2 points 2 monthsFeb 13, 2025 15:39:14 ago (+2/-0)

what cut your foot and were you swimming at the lake or creek at the time?

[ - ] PenisEnvy [op] 0 points 2 monthsFeb 13, 2025 20:17:22 ago (+0/-0)

on a hunt for white tail deer very late season.

[ - ] TheNoticing 0 points 2 monthsFeb 13, 2025 13:12:22 ago (+0/-0)

Did you think it would heal on its own?

[ - ] UncleDoug 4 points 2 monthsFeb 13, 2025 16:08:38 ago (+4/-0)

OP isnt a lizard, his limbs arent growing back.

[ - ] drstrangergov 3 points 2 monthsFeb 13, 2025 14:15:27 ago (+3/-0)

thats how i handle such things as well. doctors are killers.

[ - ] TheNoticing 1 point 2 monthsFeb 13, 2025 15:03:30 ago (+2/-1)

You can't leave those to chance. There's a reason people that get bit or deep scratches by animals should go to urgent care. There's nasty shit in their mouths that can infect humans quickly.

[ - ] drstrangergov 2 points 2 monthsFeb 13, 2025 15:10:50 ago (+2/-0)

i've made it almost half a century with only a couple major infections. i had a tiny scratch in my calf once that turned into a giant ulcer. also may have been a spider bite. got about the size of a silver dollar. it was a big hole that went down past the fat layer. mucho gross. i almost went in for that one. antibiotics arent that hard to get.
