Yesterday the wife and I were on our way home from a firework display by our house. While we were on one of those little ramps that goes from the intersection to the sidewalk, I noticed that I had to tie my shoe. So I bent over for literally like 5 seconds to resecure the laces, so I didn’t trip and kill myself. Well, I’m not down there 3 seconds, when I hear “Excuse me.”
I look up and it’s a woman pushing another woman in a wheelchair. She needs the ramp. That’s fine. But why can’t she wait like 2 more seconds. She can see what I’m doing. It’s not like I’m setting up camp. I’m tying my freaking shoe. Let me finish up, and I will be out of your way. There was no poisonous gas seeping down on us. Just a person who feels like she doesn’t have to wait. I guess I’m just saying handicapped people think they are royalty in our country. And they should all be killed.
you’re a real asshole.
everyone knows not to ever inconvenience anyone else in the slightest on a public street. go in your house if you want to tie your shoe.
perhaps they didn’t want you to tie your shoe so that you would fall and become handicapped yourself.
Please go back to Handiland. With all your disabled friends.
OK Brent….I applaud you for fixing you laces. Very dangerous to have your shoes untied, but maybe the lady had the momentum going up the ramp and could not stop. You are a bigger man than that and that is why I love you.
Please don’t appeal to my sense of decency, Marnie. There is no decency when the handicapped are involved. We are in a war, people. When are you going to see that?
In my experience all handicapped handlers are jerks. I’m not sure why. It would be very tempting to suggest that deep down they resent their position and take it out on the rest of us, but I don’t think it’s quite that simple. I expect that their core issue is one of anti-semitism, but I could be thinking of Mel Gibson. All I know is that all those Special Olympics cock suckers (patriciapants exluded) can go jump in a lake and take their surly attitides with them.
i think it’s important to note that we are talking about handicapped handlers, and not the handicapped themselves.
They are all one horrible group. That’s like saying “we are talking about the guy who robs the bank, but not the guy who’s holding a gun on the guard up front.”
For the record, I think that was a man that was in the wheel chair
i wash my hands of this whole post. my first comment still stands.
You are either for us, or against us.
I’m a retard, and you’ve hurt my feelings.
Why don’t you make a greeting card about it
Did it have one of those flashing countdown signs? Those things sow all sorts of anxiety. Maybe she just looked up–saw it quickly go from 17 to 14–and imagined herself pushing the chair in the crosswalk when the light changed, cars honking all around her, and then just lost her cool.
If it didn’t have one of those signs, then she’s probably just an asshole.
Ambutt: are you talking to me about greeting cards (this is a thread jack, everyone just read along and noone gets hurt)? I was just tracing the IP addresses that have hit my website. Some one at Hall Mark Inc. in Kansas city was checking out my comics. Who is this, how did they find out about my comics (there was no referring link), and why don’t they offer me a job?
