I won't be happy until I lose my legs

I've been fascinated/perplexed by this topic ever since I read an Atlantic Monthly article six years ago about these folks: A wanna-be amputee (woman with BIID) tells all to The Guardian.

Thanks for the article, Jason!

This is what the Food Court in Hell must look like.
Priorities, people.
