As with every time this is posted, someone has to come point out that this picture is completely unrelated. He had 2 prosthetics, both can be found on his Wikipedia page.

Guess I'm the one who gets to be pedantic this time!

[–] FordBeeblebrox 1 points 2 weeks ago

Technically correct, the best kind of correct!

[–] [email protected] 43 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

OP could be funny and just change the pic in the post out with this one to gaslight you.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

I literally just did that and was gonna write "check again, bucko"

you beat me to it

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Maybe he lost his left arm too

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA 10 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

He wrote be clutching the quill betwixt his buttcheeks

you got to hand it to him

Writing poetry, ha! Ash can crush a metal cup with his hand.

Groovy

Writing with this thing sounds difficult because most of us write with our fingers. Proper writing technique is all arms since that allows you to write much more without fatigue. So as long as your elbows and shoulders are intact, you can just duct tape a pen to your stump and write just as well as you can with a hand. Think of writing on a chalkboard, but scale it down to a piece of paper.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 weeks ago

They didn't have duct tape back then. Mechanical arm was obviously the only solution left

[–] CitizenKong 12 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

He also coined the popular German insult "Leck mich am Arsch" (literally "lick my ass").

[–] slampisko 16 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Is that not what the very bottom line in the picture says?

[–] papalonian 14 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

So it does.

Another fun fact about the guy though is that he's credited with coining the phrase "lick my ass" in his poetry.

[–] Quadhammer 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

Oh, true. He also wrote the first known usage of the popular phrase "lick my ass" though. Fun fact.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

Well we don't know that it popularized the phrase from that

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I’m fairly sure Catullus wrote poetry with similar phrases in it more than a thousand years earlier

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Then what does Dogullus mean?

Ti's but a scratch

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I like the bit about his friends having to roll a natural 20 to get him out of gaol.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

And a bribe.

[–] Rooty 4 points 2 weeks ago

There is nothing stopping you from becoming a mercenary and getting your arm shot off, OP.

Violet Evergarden irl. The warrior poet thing at least
