thinkyoucanhang -> Crazy stuff we the Disabled pull... (2/14/2014 11:29:10 PM)

I was replying in another thread and got an idea, how many other Disabled folks pull crazy stunts? I mean waaay off the wall? I'm an in your face loud kinda guy even down to my bright neon yellow shoes and off color saying T-shirts. Even in my picture one can see my weird humor.

I have a shirt saying, "I'm not disabled, I'm just lazy."

It's the small things that bring the most joy.

One can't forget the Mentally Handicapped with Tourette's act I pull! When sales people ignore me, I roll my head to the side limply, over emphasize my mostly paralyzed arm/hand and yell loudly, "THUPID BITH! NUMB CUNT, WHORE!" (for females) or "COCKTHUCKER, ASSWIPE DICKHEAD!" (for guys) then in a normal tone I ask if I got their attention now?

It embarrasses the heck out of my wife, but it works. I even had one girl bust out in tears and run off at Wal*Mart and I've pulled it in restaurants with slow service. Best part is nobody expects it or does anything about it but it DOES get their attention & results. I HATE being ignored or dismissed! Plus, it's funny.

I'll sometimes put my hand in my pants and act like I'm stroking off to avoid handshakes. Stuff like that.

I would like to know other ways folks use to purposely embarrass, gross out, etc that other folks find offensive and require more creativity than the crass purposely farting in an elevator.

Before anyone without a clue chimes in:

Why is it OK to have sex in public but not embrace the disabilities one unfortunately has? Are you saying voyeurism in public is ok but the disabled shouldn't be seen nor heard? Are we supposed to be miserable all the time? Does the thought of it make you uncomfortable that we might find a little fun at someone else's expense? What about the rude stares or comments behind a disabled person's back? I'm not talking about the racist with ONE black friend here.

I have friends with Tourette's and other disabilities. It's more than friendship too borderlining on kinship. We crack on each other's disabilities all the time without getting offended. It's like 2 black guys calling each other the "N" word. It's a black thing you wouldn't understand... Ever heard that before? Same difference.

It's frustrating when abled bodied folks try to tell one how they should behave just for their comfort.

I think you may have a few issues to work through, I'm not a therapist but a lot of your views and reactions strike me as possibly unhealthy.
Shocking people by pretending you are more disabled than you are or pretending to stroke your cock in public, are low class stunts in my view... And making a girl run out crying because you wanted attention? Isn't funny.

quote:

Quit ignoring me or acting like I'm invisible in public, then I won't act out. It's that simple.

This isn't a healthy mature frame of mind in my opinion.
And Now I will say something that is a fact. (While it is clear that you are most likely not the kind of person I would enjoy being around.) I do know a quadriplegic man who has more class, maturity and strength of character than you or even I hold in our little fingers, so your disability is not the reason you are an undesirable person...

Fast reply

I think any joke, prank or stunt which involves deliberately making someone else feel shitty, is a scummy thing to do. That goes for whether you are disabled or hosting an mtv show.

I'm all for calling people out if they behave inappropriately, and for having a sense of humour about yourself, or being comfortable with any disability you may have. I'm against making people cry or behaving badly to get priority service. You don't get to be rude because you use a wheelchair. The people that you are messing with may not have visible disabilities, but it doesn't mean they aren't suffering in some other way. Almost everyone is facing some hard struggles in their life. I believe in trying to treat people with decency.

I'm also against public sex, except in very specific circumstances where everyone present consents to being a witness.



ChatteParfaitt -> RE: Crazy stuff we the Disabled pull... (2/15/2014 2:22:00 AM)

You have too much anger and will continue to live your life from one disappointment to another until you deal with your rage.

Please find a therapist, I'm sure there are some in your area for Vets.

I think it's really sad that you find so much joy in making some kid at a store cry. Being disabled does not give you a license to be an asshole. I hope the next time you put your hand down your pants some cops hauls you in for a mental eval.

It's not ok to have sex in public, but don't take my word for it. Run on down to your local cop shop with your favorite girl and try it out on the front steps. I bet it will be a lot more fun than anything you mentioned in the first post although this time you might be the one who ends up crying.



nouveauslut -> RE: Crazy stuff we the Disabled pull... (2/15/2014 5:31:07 AM)

And when you return to your "normal tone", my reaction would be, "Yes, you got my attention. Now get out of my restaurant/store/life"
I have no problem at all with the disbled. The ones I have problems with, are the offensive jerks, who exploit their disability to amuse themselves and get preferential treatment.
I agree that a disabled person has a right to be treated with respect and courtesy, just like anyone else. And like anyone else, abuse that respect and you'll lose it.

What have the poor cops done to deserve having to see this?



Lynnxz -> RE: Crazy stuff we the Disabled pull... (2/15/2014 5:35:23 AM)

Your major malfunction is not your physical disability, but your baseline jackassery.

How the hell does your wife put up with that?



GoddessManko -> RE: Crazy stuff we the Disabled pull... (2/15/2014 5:43:11 AM)

It's disappointing not only do you do these terrible things to others, but that you can easily laugh about it. Honestly dear, you remind me of a very sick friend of mine I recently parted ways with entirely and you should figure out if this might stem from some form of PTSD. Your empathy compass is totally broken because you're that far into your own misery. I sense that you're hurting a lot more deeply than willing to admit and you feel admitting it makes you less manly. You should definitely seek help from a medical professional. I don't think that you're an asshole, I think you're just not well.



DesFIP -> RE: Crazy stuff we the Disabled pull... (2/15/2014 6:16:45 AM)

You go around publicly embarrassing and humiliating your wife and then you wonder why she doesn't want to address her lack of desire to have sex with you.
Doesn't seem the way to have a happy home life. YMMV.



needlesandpins -> RE: Crazy stuff we the Disabled pull... (2/15/2014 6:45:37 AM)

I stepped away from this thread earlier because it really did bring me very close to breaking the TOS. seriously man you need some help. I have worked with people, adults and children, that have all sorts of disabilities. I've only come across one with your 'I deserve it' attitude, and he's not liked by anyone that has to be around him. the rest of the people I have had the pleasure to be around would not lower themselves to your appalling behaviour.

by all means take the piss out of each other amongst your mates with your individual dis/abilities, but you do not use it against someone else to get attention. You're in a chair, big deal. it doesn't give you the right to mock those with other disabilities just so you get what you want. if I'm ignored, or get poor service I gain the persons attention in a civilised manner, and complain appropriately. I don't act as those I'm disabled to get what I want.

acting the way you do actually makes things worse for others with disabilities. you have a huge chip on your shoulder that you need to get rid off. you are lucky your wife is still with you. if you dared behave in public like that with me, it would never happen again.

igor2003 -> RE: Crazy stuff we the Disabled pull... (2/15/2014 7:18:16 AM)

You pull stupid shit, make fun of other people with disabilities, fake other disabilities in order to insult people, etc., then, apparently with a straight face you wonder why people don't like you, and you think it is BECAUSE OF your disability? IT'S NOT THE DISABILITY THAT THEY DON'T LIKE...it's YOU.

I, too, have a disability. I'm not wheelchair bound, but I can't be on my feet for more than a very few minutes due to back problems. When I go grocery shopping I make use of the electric carts. At checkout, as often as not, people offer to help unload my basket onto the conveyer, and/or offer to help me out to the car with my groceries. I thank them for their gracious offer, but decline, feeling that doing it myself adds to my exercise for the day, and I know that when I get home I have to be able to unload by myself anyway.

The point is, I don't experience the same rejection for my disability that you seem to experience. I have no doubt that I probably would have a similar experience if I went around being a loud, obnoxious jerk...in the name of "fun" (?).

Okay, life handed you a plate of shit. It happens to a lot of us. I used to enjoy hiking in the area foothills several times a week. I used to go mountain biking. I enjoyed the work I did. I went dancing at least once a week...often more often. But I lost all of that when my back went bad. But I don't sit around sulking about poor me. And I don't have my "fun" by being rude and obnoxious to other people. I've re-channeled my life. I'm learning more things that I can do and enjoy while sitting, like learning new computer programs for audio and video editing, and creating animations. I've learned to play (or at least am learning to play) harmonica and ukelele to go along with the instruments I already play. Life is what you make it, and from what I've seen you are making your own life miserable, and you blame it on everything from your military experience to every-day people on the street.

I hope you can and will re-think what is going on in your life and try going a different direction. I think you will be happier, and I'm pretty sure the people around you will be happier as well.

It isn't funny.

It is true that the disabled are to some degree, invisible.
I recommend the book Moving Violations.
That is not the same thing as being ignored.
Being invivible happens to everyone.
It just happens more often when one is in a chair.
Part of it is because you aren't at eye level.

You should have the same rights as a so called able-bodied person.
But that does not mean being disabled should give you a free ride on socially unacceptable behavior.
It does not give you the right to intentionally hurt and embarrass people.
And it does not mean you are entitled to more.
Essentially you have developed a very adult way to tantrum.
(Which incidentally makes fun of disabled people regardless of whether or not your disabled friends think it's funny.)

I have worked with the infirm and disabled for more than 30 years.
In part, that is why I have tried to cut you some slack.
But embarrassing your wife and being proud because you sent someone running out in tears shows you lack something essential: empathy and compassion.
That could be a result of your brain injury.
It could just be you.
I don't know.

Next time you want attention from someone, why not simply do what the rest of us do?
Ask.
Stop being a bully because life isn't fair and you are in a chair.
The restaurant service was slow?
That isn't because you are in the chair.
It is because that happens in restaurants... to everyone.
Stop making everything so personal.
Despite what you think, it really isn't all about you.
Nor should it be.


And in terms of teaching lessons to store and restaurant personnel, lessons delivered with patience tend to stick longer.

myotherself -> RE: Crazy stuff we the Disabled pull... (2/15/2014 7:35:26 AM)

I'm guessing that if you were in a store or restaurant and a couple of guys started to make loud, crass jokes about not being able to walk, you would laugh and congratulate them on their sense of humour?

No, I thought not. [8|]




GoddessManko -> RE: Crazy stuff we the Disabled pull... (2/15/2014 7:39:26 AM)

To everyone on this thread, I totally understand where the criticisms are coming from but I think we should remember we are talking to an individual who is injured and unaware of how to empathize with others. Let's not villainize someone who is reacting in the ways that he has due to an illness. He really is just sick, not a douche. He even brings up deaths and maiming on his profile, clearly this guy deals with flashbacks on a daily basis. I'm not going to judge because for all I know, I could have been in his shoes if unable to cope with traumatic events.
I just think we need to take a step back and realize where this type of abnormal behavior stems from rather than labeling someone for not being as able to cope as most of us are.



GoddessManko -> RE: Crazy stuff we the Disabled pull... (2/15/2014 7:41:54 AM)

Everything this guy is doing down to this very thread screams "coping mechanism" to me. [sm=2cents.gif]



dcnovice -> RE: Crazy stuff we the Disabled pull... (2/15/2014 7:44:09 AM)

GM, I appreciate and even admire the call to compassion.

But the OP stated clearly that what he does is a deliberate "act."
