Reject articulation; become dog biscuit

Why not none? Bones are a terrible affliction.

[–] a_non_monotonic_function@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Fuck off with your bullshit again, octopus. We don't have a damned choice.

I've been found out!

Adjusts monicle and puts flat cap back on. That some of a bitch... We were so close this time.

You can add new bones to your body any time you please

more like hitting your jaw to ameliorate the human affliction of "only one jawbone"

People would be intentionally breaking bones, for "super-human" flexiblity.

[–] smeenz@lemmy.nz 8 points 3 days ago

There would be no need for muscles with only one bone

I once met a person with Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva. Her bones were fusing together and over time she became more and more immobile. She's probably dead now. I hope that answers your questions.

[–] musubibreakfast@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

That's horrible. In the end, did she get chucked into her grave like a frisbee?

[–] modus@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

I heard they just propped her up in the foyer. She probably looked like the image on the right.

[–] Chivera@lemmy.world 18 points 4 days ago (1 children)

If he had just one bone then we wouldn't rattle when we walk.

[–] Fedizen@lemmy.world 10 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Imagine thinking we could walk with just one bone.

[–] Newuser@lemmy.world 3 points 4 days ago

Pretty sure you wouldn't be able to even imagine because nature would have wiped you out before developing that skill

[–] Sonotsugipaa@lemmy.dbzer0.com 31 points 4 days ago (1 children)

The human body evolved for resilience: having a large number of bones provides redundancy, meaning that we can break many bones and still have at least one to spare.

It's also partially a vestigial trait, as our ancestors needed to do a lot of boning in order for the species to survive - nowadays we don't need to replenish our numbers as much.

[–] recentSlinky@lemmy.ca 15 points 4 days ago

That explains why no one would sleep with me. It's not me, it's just biology.

[–] gandalf_der_12te@feddit.org 7 points 3 days ago

genius question. in the next chapter: why do we have 10¹² cells and not just one giant one?

[–] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 25 points 4 days ago

Oh, humans can have basically one bone.

They are horrible and agonizing conditions, perhaps similar to being slowly partially or totally mummified by your own body.

Ankylosing Spondylitis, Pfeiffer Syndrome, Klippel-Feil Syndrome, etc.

Imagine your bones all fusing together. You can't bend, or maybe walk, move your jaw, or maybe even breathe.

[–] MrNesser@lemmy.world 10 points 4 days ago (4 children)

Humans are the only ape not to have a penis bone.

i feel cheated somehow.

[–] sangeteria@lemmy.ml 5 points 4 days ago

I'm glad we don't. Makes us more flexible so we can fuck in many different positions and angles. Could you imagine doing all of doggy style and missionary and cowgirl and reverse cowgirl and riding and all the other positions with a dick that can't bend like a willow branch? Oof

[–] architect@thelemmy.club 4 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Lol I’d be keeping a tally on how many I broke off. You don’t actually want that.

I also vote for outside bone instead of inside bone.

[–] lugal@sopuli.xyz 11 points 4 days ago

Evolution isn't a democracy but sure, freedom of speech

[–] Rhaedas@fedia.io 6 points 4 days ago

Alan Dean Foster wrote a scif novel called Nor Crystal Tears that was mainly from the pov of an alien insect species. The differences were explored in body structure and culture and the confusion when they run across these weird humans with their bones on the inside... and they made obscene noises with their flapping flesh things on their head.

If we had just one, it would be very hard to move.

Is an osteoblast posting this? They hate constantly getting their hard work removed by osteoclasts.
