has anyone posed the theory that his gimpy arm is a result of opiate overdose? allow me to explain a little...i was a heavy opiate user for about a decade and several of my friends throughout that time overdosed. 90% of the ones who survived and were "out" for any prolonged period of time, lets say over an hour, experienced a medical condition known as necrosis. essentially, the muscles atrophy during the overdose primarily on the side in which the person is leaning.
for example, two of my friends OD'd and were laying on their sides and both of them had the same thing happen in the respective arm and leg they were laying on. if you're not out for too long, they can graft more tissue to the areas to help rebuild it but often times it renders the limb inoperable to a high degree if not entirely, at least initially. overtime, sensation can return but its a very long process.
that being said. this happened to ethan when he slept for some ungodly amount of time, during a period of time where he had access to heavy opiates and suddenly he's got a necrotic arm. it's easy to say "i got a nerve issue" or whatever he said to get people off the trail and to be fair, most people wouldn't make this possible connection. but my circumstances and experiences in the past lead me to believe that is what happened. his arm literally looks and functions identically to both of my friends that i mentioned above.
could be a total crack-theory or possibly a theory rooted in reality...either way, this has been: A Gunt Theory.
also, what kind of faggot, out-of-touch retarded diva needs his stream buddies to help him pick out gifts for his child? has he not been visiting his child? wouldn't he have an idea of what sorts of shit his kid would be into? or do him and his son just sit there and commiserate over a-logs and corn? even still, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to know what kids like...they like pretty much ANYTHING at that age and at the end of the day, you're just going to swing through dollar general and grab him some fucked up bubble wand or something faggoty.
either way, god bless the goal.
