Ever drunk beer out of your leg?
...
Nope. Just water so far. I'm not a fan of beer, but I might try vodka or wine or something someday. Leg is waterproof for a reason after all.
How do the ladies react?
What's your story you tell people?
Do you get weird looks?
What happend
Do you have to take it off at airports?
Most ladies find it interesting, but are sexually ambivalent to it. My present crush has said it looks hot on one occasion, which made me really happy.
Had to remove my left leg because of a tumor in my left thigh which was spreading up to my lungs.
Yes. Get weird looks all the time.
Have u shorted the motherboard by cumming on it?
How does walking feel like? Is it very different from using 2 natural legs?
Also how did you lose it bud
Yep. They keep me seated in a room while they remove it and run it through the scanners. Then they hand it back to me. There's actually a protocol and everything, whole thing takes about 5 minutes and I'm on my way.
>Had to remove my left leg because of a tumor in my left thigh which was spreading up to my lungs.
Well shit user. Glad you're still with us
I broke my wrist in a car accident which rendered my dominant hand useless.
Would replace for pic related in an instant
I have never once ejaculated on the leg yet. Though frankly it's probably a matter of time before it happens. Especially when actually fucking, and you don't have the time or mood to be all careful about every last drop of the blast
What is the equation for how much force is needed to killer a nigger by clubbing it in the head with your fake leg
Thanks user :)
Walking feels pretty different. Instead of weight being distributed across the whole leg and all the joints - heel, knee and hip, everything comes down hard on just the hip joint. But the machinery is meant to mimic a human gait in principle. So it looks exactly like normal walking.
Sorry to hear user. Hand prosthetics are frankly still pretty autistic but have hope, with the tech that's coming out lately as well as 3d printing tech it'll soon be dank and affordable.
I doubt OP knows, but I'll bet if you could break a small watermelon with a prosthetic leg, you would likely crack a skull with it too.
S=jw(gtfo)
It will happen soon just give it some time
How are hand prosthetics autistic? Are you retarded, or just an asshole?
Do you always wear matching shoes outside? Cant you just have a shoe-like end to the prostesis and not bother?
Do you believe bleeding-edge mind controlled bionics and artificial muscles would benefit you?
Do you follow the advances in bionics/robotics/bioengineering?
I don't plan to try. Much easier to crack a skull with just about anything else really.
I have several friends in an amputee support group with prosthetic hands. They are constantly telling me about their limitations and how their expectations got dashed pretty hard. Mimicking the intricacies of 5 different finger ball joints is pretty fucking intense.
Note that I said that present level of tech is autistic. In a few years, there will be monumental steps forward, and robot hands will soon catch up with, and then exceed, human ones.
I could do that, but like....I have different pairs of shoes and want to wear different kicks at different times no?
Does anyone think bionics will ever surpass our biological muscles and organs?
Will people eventually hack their arms and legs off willingly to gain an advantage a la deus ex?
Yes I do believe they would benefit me, and I am following bionic tech development and neuroscience pretty closely. The disadvantages of analog stuff are subtle, but they add up.
Do you get phantom pains at all?
At present state of technology, it is unthinkable that people would be intentionally replacing perfectly fine biological limbs with prosthetic ones.
That having been said, 10 years ago it would have been unthinkable that someone with my level of amputation (leg removed hip down) could get a prosthetic.
So you see how it goes.
Bumping for interest
I get phantom sensations, but not necessarily pains. That is to say, I can feel my left leg at all times despite it not being there. However the leg isn't hurting, it's just...there.
cool as fuck
...
Thanks user
Have you ever watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate?
Nah dude. I think we're going to hit a wall with regards to science in about 30-40 years, being limited by what's actually possible. As cool as it would be, I just can't see it.
This game was released in 2015, which is literally the year I lost my leg. I have based Kojima to thank for saving me from a major depression spiral.
Have you thought about sticking some tech to it?
A big powerbank would be handy to have stuck to your body at all times.
Every get any phantom limb sensations? If so did it freak you out?
This game saved me from a depression spiral. No kidding. Thanks based Kojima.
Doubt it. As our understanding of genetics and quantum physics rises, we will abandon analogue tech.
Shit they'll probably be able to regrow you a new heart within a week.
Or weaponise it!
Fucking tazer knee
Hey OP,
Do you know if you have to have some fucked up condition to get a prosthetic? I'm down for joining the cyborg army
Hmm Alright and yeah I meant to say sensations, I only associated it with pains because being military you get a lot of guys who get pains from thier missing limbs sometimes
Yep I do. Answered that question already, see above.
They never freaked me out. They always felt logical and natural to me for some reason. I know many amputees do get freaked out though.
I stick a small portable WiFi router to it.
You need to get a limb removed. No doctor would do that without good reason. Easiest way to get an amputation would be to get yourself in an accident.
Not a knee or a bionic, but gauntlet.
I really hope that is the case. I also hope space travel improves greatly at some point too. That'd be nice.
Yep I feel you. I did get pains very early on (like the first week after the amputation. But at that point everything was hurting and I was high on morphine and couldn't tell what was phantom and what was real. It was just a blurry mess of agony)
nothing big but i have a baclofen pump in me, and a rod, some screws in my right leg. the pump is a muscle relaxer that i constant get. i have to get it refilled every four or so months.
Taser on the knee? Well, at least they'll never see it coming out of the knee.
We will colonize the solar system, but anything beyond that requires too many resources to sustain life.
Proxima Centauri is 4ly away, meaning we will have to be robots to get there.
And galaxy hopping will never ever happen as they move away from each other at a rate we could never physically catch up with.
This excites and terrifies me. Kinda like Westworld.
does it pump up your dick?
Oh, damn dude. Have they ever sprang back up or is it just sensations only now?
Already happening.
DNA is simply code we don't know how to write.
Give it 100 years and you can build your kid like in Fallout 3.
They occasionally spring back up but never ineed terrible or debilitating amounts. Usually just sudden pangs or mild aches.
As for the sensations, they are there 24/7. I feel as though my leg never left, it just became some sort of airy incorporeal ghost thing. The term "phantom" limb is so terribly appropriate.
catch a webm of your left cyborg toes moving mate
No. It's quite inobtrusive on the dick, as a matter of fact.
But will Stimpaks be real?
Regrettably, the toes don't move. Only the hip, knee and ankle joints rotate.
Drug delivering/micro surgical nanobot swarms?
Highly plausible
no it helps with my legs and my right arm
What are your Prime Directives?
what are those?
Where do you hide the cannon? It's a leg cannon?
osteosarcoma, OP?
1. Self improvement and the acquisition of greater competency at my work
2. As far as possible, the maximisation of utility and satisfaction of preferences for myselr and the people around me, and the minimisation of pain, as a general overarching guideline to day to day actions.
...
Yes, that's exactly it. In the left thigh.
I know what I'm doing this weekend
That's classified.
Huh, that's good I guess and cool if you can call it that you can still "feel it" kinda, could you feel something maybe brush up your leg like say a dog or something would you feel it
Do take precautions to limit the damage though. No point turning up at the morgue rather than at the operating theatre.
Why didn't you decide to wear the same colour socks?
Nope. It's a ghost leg, remember, the dog would just pass right through it.
Although I do occasionally feel a variety of sensations - heat, cold, itchiness, etc. Identifying what triggers specific sensations is quite tricky. They seem to pop up rather arbitrarily.
Accelerated healing is possible, but it won't be like wounds instantly regrow perfectly. Plus it would also dump truck your metabolic systems, as you would expend so much stored energy in such a short amount of time. There's also a good risk of developing cancers.
This video explains it in more depth, if you can excuse the cringy attempts at Humour.

This picture was taken while I was at my physiotherapist's. I was more concerned with actually learning how to walk at that point in time.
Do you ever experience phantom leg syndrome?
Have you noticed any improvements to your Stamina etc since putting on the leg? Do you think you can walk/run farther or faster?
Yep, question answered, see above :)
Read the thread
*phantom limb syndrome
Do you work for skynet?
True I probably could've gussed that one myself, but that's neat. Im guessing you tinker around then trying to trigger these sometimes?
I can't move as fast as I could with my flesh leg. That's because the tech hasn't yet matched the biological counterpart's capacity just yet. But it reaches closer and closer to doing so every year.
There are some advantages though. A flesh leg would get tired and start to hurt after intense exercise because of anaerobic respiration building up lactic acid. This obviously doesn't happen with the metal leg. So the leg never hurts after strenuous exercise.
Is Die Hard a christmas movie?
Were you sent back in time to kill John Connor?
would you fist me?
Actually no, I don't think about it much these days. Mostly my phantom leg is just there, not bothering me.
I'm like their front desk receptionist
If so, I'm encountering some serious system failure right about now.
If you enjoy it, I suppose I would.
Dude that's awesome. You're evolving. Do you have super powers?
How would you describe the feeling of waking up from anaesthesia and seeing your entire leg is missing?
Battle droid/10
I like it
I read about mirror therapy for phantom limbs. Have you done this or know what it is?
