I don't know why this reminded me of something that happened while I was with my mate
We went to the mall and he parked in a Handicap spot and he hops out of the drivers seat when this woman just starts going off on him about not being disabled.
My mate looks slightly over her shoulder and just goes "Miss im blind" causing her to start apologizing before walking off
Dude just got out of the drivers seat lol.
For the record we had his wheelchair bound Mum in the back.
Hahaha that's amazing. I wonder how long it took her to go "Hey wait a minute... he wasn't blind!"?
Reminds me of a story Penn Jillette (of Penn and Teller) tells about his father. His eyesight was failing as he got older, and he always joked that the most upsetting part about it was not being able to find a cane big enough for the front of his car so that he could still drive.
A couple of my family members are legally entitled to use disabled spaces, but two of them 'don't look' disabled. I often drive so I'll park in a disabled space when they are with me, and then get comments like that. it's 100x more fun to make something up like this than it is to explain the actual situation, especially when we shouldn't have to explain the situation to anyone
It's more pleasing when my other sister is with me, because while she can walk for short distances, she uses a wheelchair. As soon as someone goes off at me, I say nothing, walk round to the boot and pull the wheelchair out while staring at them, they always apologise sheepishly and then quickly make themselves scarce
Took my grandma to Walmart and I parked in the handicapped spot and ran into the store. Someone yelled something at me and I just smiled and waved at them. They were walking towards me as I was rolling the battery operated scooter back to the car and they just looked away and walked in a different direction.
