Fuck, I thought I had a pretty typical body, but I had no idea it was abnormal to have skin.
I guess it's time to go to the doc again for a flesh-ectomy.

My girlfriend has EDS. It is such a strange disease.
On the one hand, it gives you smooth stretchy skin that is resistant to wrinkles, long features that can be very beautiful, and enhanced flexibility that can be fun in the bedroom.
On the other hand, just laying down can cause her legs to fall out of socket, her back can make noises that sound like stepping on peanuts, and her fingers can get stuck in a Vulcan salute.
Handicapped parking is dope though.
What a shitty mattress does to a motherfucker
Or sneezing wrong when you are 40+.
I have EDS and it definitely feels like this sometimes lol
I'm in this picture and I don't like it (hEDS here)
Oof ow
Yo I threw my shoulders putting my shirt on. Nm they are sorta back in socket as I brought them down. Wee.
