#17 many disabled people do not need their disability aids 24/7. Just because he can stand up long enough to pay and/or collect his tacos doesn't mean he can get back to wherever he came from on foot.

#15 my grandma died at 94 a few years back. Sold the house her and her sisters grew up in after she moved in with my uncle. Not a boomer, her oldest kids were boomers, but I was mad thinking none of her 24 grandchildren will be able to afford buying back that house, it was in our family since they emigrated here and now it's gone forever. I'd have moved in, my uncles built apartments inside their houses for my gma and great aunt, but they sold and it's gone forever
MarsIsNotTheRightDirectionForADysonSphere
Did someone young bought the house? Did the money on the house got to someone young?
applesforjuice
No idea who bought the house. Not sure where the money went, probably to my great aunt who is still alive but pushing 90 years old. None of us live close to that property but if I ever own something I'm keeping it to give to my descendants/family, not selling
MarsIsNotTheRightDirectionForADysonSphere
Yeah, same here.

#10 I would say the opposite. You can do very little with a strawberry flavoured thing (unless it's a condom). Strawberries themselves, however, are very versatile, and if in season, rich with flavour opportunities.

LoftheDesert
I get that it's a joke but I would like to point out that some people just need a wheelchair for a bit, and are not actually bound to it.
My ex had a job where she would take care of this kid who had some sort of muscles disease. I don't v remember the details, but one symptom would be that her muscles didn't work as well, and not as long. So she could be on the playground, climbing sliding, and then sit on the wheelchair when it was time to leave, unable to walk at that point.
KairiRatten
One of my friend's BFF has that. When I met her couple years ago, she could walk like 500 metres per day, on a good day. Her Achilles tendons were shrunk so she permanently walked on tiptoes, she could play through 1 song on Beat Saber on my PlayStation, but still preferred the wheelchair.
Tristanisawesome
Sounds like muscular dystrophy
Raenon
Agreed, my nephew has it, he has a chair, a walker, and ankle braces, to handle a variety of occasions. He's very active, but his muscles can give way unexpectedly and he burns a lot more energy to maintain balance. Also happens to be wickedly smart, but has enormous trouble speaking. Thankfully assistive talker tablets are a thing now.
timmargh
Could've been muscular dystrophy. I have the FSH variety and started needing a wheelchair on and off in my late teens/early twenties.
NineByNine
Thanks for this, I was like "yeah I gotta pipe in about that one, god i hope someoine else has or i'm gonna have to unload about this and i'll probably get details wrong eughhh..." so. thank you for being factual and being able to provide an example and also i'm glad to see so many upvotes and comments on this rather than trashbastards chiming in with "lol faker"

Found this out back in highschool. Kid in my class used a wheelchair and only got up for the bathroom.
BionicM00se
Yeah there's a huge difference between "stand and pay for tacos" and "walk the entire festival"
nintyuk
My Sister has similar issues. She can move around the house ok but when out and about she has to use crutches or a stick. If she is going to need to be moving all day she sometimes uses a wheelchair.
textilelover
My hubs is the same way.

GravitySmellsLikeCheese
First time I saw this was the miracle of the breakfast buffet, they managed a good ten minutes going around that. Then there was the miracle of the “dodging the long queue at security along with all their grinning family”.
I do take your point though, sometimes, probably most times, wheelchairs are for assistance.
mitharas
And in the same circumstances, you would do exactly the same.
vegivamp
Shitty people always think everyone else is shitty, too.
Z0op
I get it can seem that way, and there probably are plenty people who abuse their situation or exaggerate their condition, but you dont know that. Maybe the disability is legit but the person is still a prick, we all still human. Anyway, its best not to assume and just mind your own business
HalfPintKatie
Before my spinal decompression surgery, altho I could walk, it was with a great deal of pain, and mostly bent over. I def used the electric scooter at Walmart, and stood up to get things off the shelves.
GravitySmellsLikeCheese
I’m pleased to accept these downvotes. My experiences were all first hand and maybe I misinterpreted them.
Nikolai5
Disabilities are not always visible. There are literally people that compete in running in the Olympics who at times need to use a wheelchair and can barely lug themselves around due to their disability. So on some days they can move better than most people and on others they cannot.
LoftheDesert
It's a nice benefit to be able to skip the line. If I had a disability, I would sure be grinning when I get something out if it like skipping a line.
Base841
"Healing" evangelists use this to fool people in the crowd to think a miracle happened in front of them. I was at an Oral Roberts healing show before the event, guy in a wheelchair uses the bathroom, stands up to pee, and wheels himself out. Sure enough he's on the stage and gets "healed" and walks.
Neurisko
Yeah there's a reason "Faith Healers" don't try to heal amputees, or go to hospitals ever.
LoftheDesert
This religious dude I know said he saw a video of a guy who had one leg shorter than the other. Then everyone prayed and the leg grew to match. I looked it up and video I found never showed the full person standing and when he was "healed" they only showed his feet. So obviously fake.
Base841
Yeah, the "leg lengthener" miracle/trick was a popular one with evangelical teens and tweens. You can either do it with subtle twisting of the hips, or pop the shoe off and gently pull the heel.
LoftheDesert
The video I saw was so badly zoomed in on the feet, he could have just had a knee bent to be honest.
Sirsealofapproval
I'm glad this is top comment. I have chronic fatigue and use a wheelchair sometimes because it allows me to be out for longer, like visiting a museum (can't stand for long or I'm ill the next day). I always feel super awkward because I can walk short stretches just fine and don't look sick at all. Worst is when I get up to allow my partner to carry the wheelchair up some stair or whatever. Promise, I'm not using this thing for fun...
Dudeisfood
Sounds like you are using it for fun. Fun days with your partner at the museum. :)
Morsalbum
just get some shitty folding/piston crutch to yank out when that has to happen ez
Richter12x2
Sure, they just have to invent one that doesn't require you to be on your legs. They could make it look like a chair, and make it easy to move around somehow.
BlueDsc
Maybe they could put it on wheels!
textilelover
I thiiiiink they meant when the chair has to go up the stairs, use a crutch so folks recognize that you do need help. My hubs walks with a crutch at all times but when we're at a museum or something, sometimes he'll submit to a chair so we can stay longer, but he has the crutch for help when we tackle the stairs.
Morsalbum
yeah literally this, thought i worded it kinda obviously but ig not
