Other fun stuff: injecting ice cold dextrose right into the port. THAT SHIT HURTS.

Even funner:  junkies that needed their score from being in the hospital for too long, and thought it would work faster shooting it straight into their central cath.  Dead before the plunger is all the way down.  #SadTrombone

Fuck, my mom was a surgical nurse, my dad was an ER surgeon.  I lost all my ability to get get grossed out early on, and talking about bowel resections during dinner when MASH was on was fine.  Dad's stories kept ANY of his kids from ever wanting to ride a motorcycle.

I always thought he looked like a waiter in that white uniform.

If the Germans had just worn those uniforms they would not have been the baddies.

The SS really went out of their way to set the tone for a century of ready-made cinematic bad guys, didn't they. 

Nothing says "bad guy" quite like an all-black uniform with a silver skull motif. Designed by Hugo Boss.

The Occultism and Runes really helped too.

For me it was knowing that motorcyclists have 29 times the risk of death per mile compared to car occupants.  And the fact that I don't even know how to ride a bicycle.

What the FUCK!?

I can't ride a bicycle either.  Pretty sure lots of people can't.

You live in a warhammer40k style hive city. He's lived in the Ukraine and the US. No excuse.

As I kid, I had a small bycicle that didn't have an original chain.  Unfortunately the replacement chain was larger than the original one, so it kept grabbing and slipping randomly.  Didn't instill me with the greatest of confidence.

Of course you know how to ride a bicycle. It's often compared to having... oh right.

To me, not being able to ride a bicycle is like, not being able to code.  Ok, it maybe a useful skill, and it is reasonably easy to learn for a lot of people.  Yet some people will find it inherently difficult and it isn't absolutely essential to learn it.  I got on a bicycle, couldn't balance myself, and fell to the ground.  Repeat a few times, and I concluded that I couldn't do it.  Doesn't seem to have any ill effect so far.

Early death from obesity and/or inactivity?

Extended exercise will significantly prolong your cherished planned retirement, and it'll be a less debilitated one too. 

Mono, might I suggest you take up swimming if running cycling etc aren't you thing.

Also solely relying on occasional trips to the gym won't cut it.

Neither can I. And I once knew how.
