What are you thinking right now?

I still like my 20% odds.

No, you don't even have 20% because while it is horrible, the things you mentioned are not uncommon with both procedures. That's why they make you sign the consent forms, so you can't come back and sue if those uncommon things happen to you.
That's why we have warning labels on literally everything now....so people can't sue for things that used to be common damn sense.

Speaking of warning labels.....it appears alcohol will soon be getting a cancer warning label. lol

Speaking of alcohol, at my country kids start to drink in early high school. And in USA you need to wait till 21. XD

Legally, yes, but a lot of kids don't wait until that age. I started drinking at age 13. Quit drinking before I was legal to drink. It's only illegal if you get caught. lol

I mean, you can drive car at 16, but you can't drink till 21. XD Makes total sense.

You also can't buy tobacco products (or marijuana for the states where it's legal for recreational use) until you are 21. You can enlist and go to war at 18, but you can't buy alcohol or cigarettes. But again, it's only illegal if you get caught.

Though, I'm not sure using the example of driving at 16 and drinking is a good one. Too many people drink and drive as it is, let's not add more people doing it. (not that teens don't drink and drive, of course.)

too late...

There'a a whole system that profits on people not following those rules lol. It doesn't have to make sense.

 

[MrLonely86]

Hey, I'm from European Union, we literally have 100 000 law articles to follow , they print them and made them up like it's the end of the world tomorrow. XD And they laugh at me when I say that EU is most bu11cr4p federation on planet.

 

[okidoke]

I'm from south-east Europe, not gonna tell where specific.

Why, what’s the issue?

That's something that would actually get me to consider quitting.

I hope I haven't had enough to cause it.

There are long stretches where I have none at all, but there were lots of times in my 20s where I would drink every day.

 

[kaetic]

No, you wouldn't. You would have had to sign a consent form to do the procedure, where those things are mentioned. So you wouldn't have won a lawsuit and you wouldn't have gotten a settlement.
People read things online like that and assume everyone who had a bad surgery in America gets paid for it....That's just simply not true. Only about 20% of malpractice cases win against doctors/hospitals.

Also, unless it's a mass lawsuit... millions is unlikely since they put unofficial "caps" on punitive damages.

 

[MrLonely86]

No worries guys, I'm christian, so I'll get new body soon, nothing to worry about.



True story. Mr. Lonely is only guy who lost 2 legs and it has been an improvement.
