If I can get rocks stuck and visible beneath the skin of my ankle for decades at a time, how come they can’t implant tension bands there to compensate for over-sprained and weak ankles?

Eh, I know they’ve got professional and college league money behind sports medicine, if there was a solution it’s not for lack of my input, but still, ligament surgery? What is this, 1982?

The John Romero-riff minor antagonist in Grandma’s Boy was supposed to be read as pathetic for wanting to get robot legs but fuck it, I want robot legs. Got a friend who got a MGSV… minus maybe 2, so MGSIII…-level leg off a car crash, and you see all the stuff coming out of the sandbox wars

I’ll take the Essence hit, my real concerns are self-maintainability and blood cell production if I give up too many long bones

Artificial legs are better than real legs in some ways, but are there any other body parts for which that is true? Have dentures supplanted real teeth yet? That seems like an obvious candidate, since you’d never have to worry about cavities and so on.

I have multiple tooth implants; they’re immune to cavities or discoloration or wearing down.
