    Unlikely. That's a lot more hip than you would take out for a replacement

    That hip did NOT need a hip replacement, so I'd be concerned about where that hip bone really came from!!!

    F*cking hell! My surgeon refused to give me my hip saying it was a bio-hazard. I promised him I would boil it well, but no dice. Bastard.

    I'm not sure hospitals can give people the pieces they removed, since they must be treated like special waste. After surgery bones are not that clean, they have lots of flesh and blood. I think they should be boiled and scraped to be like the one in the photo. Maybe the cane was made with bones used by medicine students. Nice idea tho

    Not every place has the same regulations, and/or maybe the doc thought it would be worth the trouble.

    I would be very interested to know how he went about getting his hip bone. There are all kinds of hassles such as cleaning it to remove dead tissue. The only way you can get the bones of a deceased relative is if they're ground to powder (incorrectly called "ashes") after cremation. But other body parts, no. Buddhist and Christian monasteries (in the middle East) have ossuaries for the bones/skulls of former monks. But in the USA it's next to impossible to obtain the bones of a decedent.

    Some of the memes on this list may seem unfunny or even offensive to others. University of Edinburgh doctoral researcher and Memes Studies Research Network founder Idil Galip describes these as “niche memes,” which are an acquired taste. 

    In an interview with the BBC, Galip recognizes these memes as a strong proponent of building communities online. 

    "They're meant usually to create things like in-group belonging, something that kind of strengthens a sense of identity,” Galip said.

    Some of the most relatable memes that go viral often poke fun at the absurdity of life. As Galip noted, it’s a “replication of mundane reality” as an art form. She also pointed out how such an expression was practiced in Hellenic times, where comedy took real-life tragedies lightly.

    “You've got something like tragic theatre that takes things that happen to you that are upsetting and real-life and makes them into comedic things, which is what memes do,” Galip explained.

    It’s one thing for a meme to be relatable and go viral, but another for it to remain relevant. According to sociologist Nicki Lisa Cole, memes must be replicable online and offline to stand the test of time.

    As Cole pointed out in an article for ThoughtCo., a shareable meme should require minimal skill to reproduce, allowing it to evolve and boost its staying power.

    Cole used the “Be Like Bill” meme as an example that possesses three key “it-factors”: copy-fidelity, fecundity, and longevity. It is a simple stick figure introduced in 2015 to “passive-aggressively call out” annoying social media behaviors. 

    Because of how easy it is to create one through meme generators, it has taken a life of its own and remains relevant today.

    All messages were received within 3 minutes. So at least that. Funny though.

    Did that before. Once when I was working a job at a brunch spot popular with the church crowd. Bible verses are NOT an acceptable tip. Most recently a warehouse job that was working me 60+ hours a week. 4pm until 4am. Days off were Saturday and Monday. Did that for six months before I gave them the finger.

    Not a man but same. It's called organized chaos. It looks like a cluttered mess but I can tell you exactly where all my stuff is in that cluttered mess. It's when I actually put stuff where it belongs that I can't find it

    MY college girlfriend claimed to be 5'8" because she didn't think being taller than guys was attractive.. When pressed, she'd admit to 5'10". In a picture of us together, she's wearing flat shoes, and the top of her head came up to my ear. I was about 6'4", so she was easily close to six foot herself. I don't know who she thought she was fooling. Apparently, she's gotten over it, because she married some short guy she absolutely towers over.

    Why do pictures of The Rapture always have people fully dressed and awake? Wouldn't this event capture people in the middle of swimming, bathing, eating, having their hair done?

    Part of the problem is that it's "heads up", as in "put your heads up". No apostrophe. It's not possessive, just plural.

    But I hate waking up in the middle of the night with my mouth open, gagging because my throat is all dried out. I have taken to taping my mouth shut before I sleep.

    It's basic respect to call a minute before the set time. Maybe they won't pick up but they will know you're reliable.
