So I'm the only one having weird posthumanist body horror type feelings at the concept of being given an instruction manual for your artificial body parts, including the equivalent of a void warranty sticker?

Just me? Cool, cool. Quietly unlocking new phobias over here.

Not sure if this is always an issue or just during some recovery period but I can see how it would be important not to stress the fragile ligaments and other issues post op until the proper time.

Looked it up. Seems to be post op instructions about recovery restrictions

Hello, we are calling about your hip’s extended warranty. Press 1 to be connected to a hipologist and remedy this issue. Press 2 to die. Ending this call will assume option 2. Option 1 is also option 2 but with a slightly longer buffer time. Too late, you are now dead. click

You’re not cool enough, so you need a visit to the hipologist.

They really just revoke your gay card for 3 months when they put you under for hip surgery

This would also be helpful if you were an alien trying to blend in with humans…

The software license on your hip has expired. Your hip will now be remotely locked until your account has been updated.

Thank you for being a Hip-O-Matic Customer

Are these temporary restrictions, or permanent? What happens if I cross my legs?

Yeah I had hip surgery in March and these restrictions sucked. They were important but soooo hard to comply with, especially with sleeping. But even harder was not being able to lean forward while sitting - I could have no less than 90° between my legs and my trunk.

As someone with sciatica and bursitis, I’m going to take this advice while standing. I’ve heard the opposite lying down, but my problem is neurological/ inflammation. My rest postition is crossing my calf over the adjacent shin and then pulling both upwards towards my head. Let’s test it out! I’m queer though, so I’ll miss making homophones scared.
