I can't be quoting everyone but those stories and injuries I mentioned Hamber talking about were never made out to be abuse. She thought they were interesting factoids. I'm stressing the fact she thought those stories were all cute and funny whilst also saying her childhood was full of abuse at the same time but the super interesting, unique injuries and ''abuse'' never became merged.
Someone else already backed up the 3rd degree burns. She told that story with a big grin as if it was all shits and giggs (the most obvious lie due to her bragging about magically healing with no scars). Again, didn't imply it was abuse. That was never in question.
These claims (the choking, burning, breaking) were never painted as abuse by her, that was not my point. My point was those lies were pushed to be special and unique not abused but in an abusive home, they would be* a problem.
That makes sense, thank you for the clarification. In that case, I just have to fall back on good ol' reliable that if there were actual instances of abuse, Amber would have already used them as an excuse for some scandal or another. As
@Boolean Bitch and
@Constellationzero said, she was probably neglected, but even then in the minor way of not being made to shower frequently enough as opposed to stuff like being left home alone for days at a time. Again, even as an uneducated, trailer trash, drug addicted, possibly actively high mother, MamaLynn still took Amber right to the hospital after Amber spilt hot soup on herself. I know even moderately neglectful parents would not do that.
But, could she even do that? We know she can:t wipe, so she also can't reach below her fupa to lift properly. Even if, her pathetic arms couldn't lift anything that heavy, especially cuz they have the added weight of the bingo wings. In order to lift, she'd need one of those thingies they use to lift cars at the mechanic.
AND EVEN THEN, we discussed before how compressed her fat is.
You're really making me think now. What if she put a mirror in front of the couch, leaned back, and clawed up her stomach, gathering it all up in her hands like a big blanket? She might be able to see something then?
Not that it matters. She has no dainty bush, she has whatever hair distribution the Good Lord graced her with down there. She does not maintain a hygiene routine for anything south of her tits.
We'd Emily would be lucky if her legs and anything in between gets a thorough cleaning on shower day.
Now take into account if Amber is taking the impacts on her heal or ball of her foot, as its difficuult to support all the weight evenly across every toe, arches etc, the forces Amber's feet are taking in her walking are likely 64 pounds per square inch walking, and up to 128 pounds per square inch in her "run". A regular woman would just be between 13-26 pounds.
For those who may not be intuitively familiar with pressure, here are some fun comparisons. Pounds per square inch are commonly referred to as "psi".
- The average human will exert between 8 and 10 psi on their feet
- A standing elephant experiences about 35 psi on each foot
- Normal car tires are going to have between 30 and 40 psi
- The water pressure in a good strong shower is going to be about 50 psi
- Firehose's water pressure start at 116 psi
There is a reason why people as large as Amber have incredibly fucked up feet/legs/joints. Anyone's feet would look like mashed potatoes if under that much stress.
