    FUCKFUCKFUCKITYFUCK

    So sorry to hear this, WG. I had a little shoulder boo-boo in MX, but this puts it all in perspective. Hollah if there is anything at all we can do. .

    On a lighter note, if you can tolerate a joke, I guess the SMASH lived up to it’s name!

    I guess the Smash doesn't climb like a goat.... Sorry to hear about the ordeal WRG. Hopefully you're able to get some clear direction from the docs and are on the road to repair soon!!

    Major bummer. Get home safe.

    If you can tolerate more jokes, just in time for couch tour, and call me if you need bankruptcy advice.

    While we're doing jokes, even if you won't accept financial help for the heli, can the maggots at least buy you a pornhub subscription to keep you busy the next few months?
    Unless you dislocated the whacking arm, of course.

    This, based on my one single experience with ketamine I'd have to say the complete opposite. Holy fucking shit that stuff was amazing. Like, everything is okay now, never mind the carnage hanging off me. It was like magic, some kind of superman shit. I'd take it again in a heartbeat and for sure if I was going thru what you just did.

Had to drive back there on Norcos bleeding all over the place. Next time I may lie about pooping to get some extra time.
    25 years of ER experience....you are not correct. They likely transferred him due to acuity and inability to reduce shoulder.

    the way I read this, the dislocation had been reduced.

    lots of crazy stuff going on in medical care Administration -
    'overnight' with a "shoulder dislocation" does not fit 'policy' .

    Just another reason EJS sucks ass.

    Good luck with the recovery, I had my shoulder rebuilt a couple of years ago. There are days I can't remember which one it was.

    Pretty humiliating photo but told my buddy to get some fire content lol. A different buddy picked me up yesterday and we stopped in slc when it started snowing sideways. Anxious to get home and see the ortho. This thing still hurts pretty bad. Hoping it's all just from them twisting the thing around while trying to get it back in.

    Re: Ketamine. They thought it was gonna take "3 minutes" to get my arm in....obviously it ended up being a struggle and I guess they needed to keep pushing the k to keep me in a hole. Pretty sure they pushed me into another dimension. Heaviest deepest trip of my life and then like a 5 hour come down. Maybe 2 minutes of the whole thing was "fun"

    Wait, who isn’t ambidextrous when it comes to masturbation?

    Transferred is a nice euphemism for kicked out onto the street, disoriented, at 1 am. But to your point I was speaking more about those that make it past the ER department.

    Heal up quick WRG. Not that there really is a bright side to an injury but with your pain focused in the shoulder and the down time needed for a full recovery... I'd bet/hope that those long covid symptoms won't be bothering you for a while.

    Dislocations scare the fuck out of me...my girl's boyfriend crashed hard at Bridger a few weeks ago and dislocated his hip.
    Move upside and let the man go through...

    Do you have your bike? Do you need more help on the ground in Moab or Grand Junction?
