One woman who lost her arm to an accident has kept her humor and began to make fun of herself to cope with the situation – and this has led to her going viral after she posted a rather catchy and hilarious bio on dating app Tinder.
According to BuzzFeed News, 21-year-old Lauren lost her arm to a moped accident.
“I was going pretty fast on a moped and lost control of it, and I hit the median in the road. I flew off and hit a sign and it sliced my arm off. I stayed conscious the whole time,” Lauren revealed.
“I remember I asked the cop, ‘Hey, am I gonna die?’ and he said, ‘No, you’ll be fine.’”

The cheeky bio got netizens laughing but they also adored her courage and loved her humor! After all, a lot of people feel uncomfortable and somewhat ashamed or embarrassed about their injuries and disabilities yet here comes one sassy lady who can easily make fun of hers…
