Seen it. And yeah, they are. But they also look purdy and make your fiance feel good and stuff.

Adam ruins everything is awesome, the tipping one is the best.

Anyone here tear a ligament in their knee ? Not sure if it's full tear or not, but it's excruciating to walk, touching the skin burns like it's on fire, just wondering how long until I can walk without the pain, it's been 6 days, can only sleep on my back.

Without attending to you directly, it definitely sounds like a tear you got there; I've only ever sprained my knee, but very similar (if lesser) symptoms. The "burning" sensation is probably inflammation/swelling around the injury site. Get a brace on and go see your doctor... and avoid stairs/stop walking on it.

 

[Anglesmith]

I've had a minor ACL tear before. Just every movement you make hurts. I didn't really experience pain from touching my knee, though, really just from movement.

My severe MCL sprain felt like that, it was horrid. Especially since I didn't get on crutches until about 4-5 days after

or you ban him?

I bought an engagement ring.

Congrats AS! So you're getting married and going for your PhD? It was one or the other a couple months ago. Did you win the lottery and not tell us?

I get money for my PhD, so it's not like normal starving school stuff.

And I'm marrying someone in engineering.

 

[Ace Rimmer]

or you ban him?

Nah, just concerned he may be banned from walking properly again.

If nothing else, painkillers.

So Kraft dinner with cut up hot dog wieners instead of a mac and cheese la carte? You're living the life!

I should have taken more pain killers when I was hurt, boy I missed the boat there

Woah, is that yours? Are all of the legs already spoken for?

Your post should have said "livin' large, my friend."

Not really because they aren't married yet. Until the day, Anglesmith can own whatever the heck he wants.

Presumably they're living together, so they are considered common law. And in Canada it's half of everything (including debts) *after* they've become common law (or married, whichever comes first).

So if Future-Mrs-AS won the lottery prior to them getting together she could give him the big FU if he tried to take off with half.

Living together for 3 months is all it takes to be married in the eyes of the Canadian government, legally after that point you are even supposed to file taxes together. It's stupid, but that is how it is.

You sir are correct and AS himself said earlier in teh thread they have been living together for 5 years or something, so they have been "married" for along time, he's just decided to put a ring on it.
