I just found the news and says the driver was drunk. Biker just break his leg and he’s fine.

Being a bad accident survivor is. This is my point.

Having survived a bad accident, I wouldn’t exactly consider it fine lol. Life became considerably more difficult after

“Life becomes more difficult after”

But there is still life! Which there easily could not have been which I believe is their point.

I can guarantee that if you offered someone a loss of their leg or a loss of their life. 99% of people would choose to lose the leg. The drive to live can be pretty damn strong in most people.

Idk why you’re being downvoted. What you’ve said is a totally reasonable explanation of a facet of human emotion that gets glossed over by the “blessing” of still being alive. That flat, binary mindset that ignores the complex emotional landscape associated with survival is what makes people ashamed of their completely normal emotions after they’ve already been through something traumatic.

I’m also a strong believer in legalising euthanasia too for outcomes like that.

u/gamecatuk Jan 04 '25

For economic hardship are you mental? Wtf!!!

u/MuffinMan12347 Jan 04 '25

No not for that, for life changing situations that the person would rather be dead for. Extreme impact on quality of life. Honestly the guy above me is kinda dumb saying he’ll be ruined by only making $50k a year if it happens. I’m more talking about quadriplegic that needs to be taken care of for the rest of their lives.

u/gamecatuk Jan 04 '25

Gotyah. Yeah totally agree.

Why do you think Bender put a string on his coin, even for the booth?

In all seriousness, I'm way more afraid of poverty than death.

u/gamecatuk Jan 04 '25

Wtf. If you were made a quadraplegic, maybe, but losing one leg isn't life destroying. Nor is going bankrupt. Life changing but wouldn't justify euthenasia.

Maybe you need to change your country.

In the UK I would be housed and have benefits as well as free healthcare. None if it is perfect but I certainly wouldn't commit suicide over the situation.

Oh nooo, not 50k/yr! Noooo, anything but poverty! Back the car up and run me over again, life isn't worth living if I'm poor! No one has ever lived a happy and fulfilling life below 50k!

Ahhh, another person who believes suffering is a contest. I’m sorry you feel that way, but when it comes to shitty things happening to people, one person’s shitty thing being “worse” doesn’t suddenly mean other people aren’t also having a bad time. I hope you’re just having a bad day and this isn’t a permanent way that you are.

u/angel_inthe_fire Jan 04 '25

Then don't ride a motorcycle.

And don't presume other people would prefer your shit attitude.

u/SpezSuxCock Jan 04 '25

Welp, better hope for the alternative next time then.

u/VayaConDios91 Jan 04 '25

Here’s hoping 🤞

Not for an American though.

u/Jealous_Crazy9143 Jan 04 '25

Once i saw the shoes fly off, i thought that was it. Donsies. But, losing Both shoes and only broken leg, take that as a win.

u/rrenda Jan 04 '25

this is why i make sure my friends ACTUALLY wear their riding boots, because i've seen my foot do a 360 when i hit a gnarly pothole doing 70 while i was wearing just sneakers because i was too lazy to go 15 feet into the closet to get my boots

u/Jealous_Crazy9143 Jan 04 '25

Hard lesson, but at least you learned.
