Look, I said I was sorry, and I felt bad about it later.
Can ya let it fucking go already?
Just let it go. WTF?
Do ya wanna hang me in the town square too?
I am sorry for doing a stupid thing but now I am starting to get pissed off.
Let it go.
You're getting pissed off? You posted about a profoundly selfish act on a public message board and are now upset that people are talking about it? That makes sense.
It was talked about three days ago. What else is there to say?
Just fucking let it go.
Stop dragging it out. Yea it was an asshole thing to do, yea people are pissed, yea I'm a terrible horrible person, I get it!
Let it fucking go!
Get em a Body Bag Yeeeeeaaaaa!

My point is that when able-bodied people say 'It must be easier/better to be able to walk', they are working from a very extreme bias. All their lives they have been able to walk and they see nothing else. Similarly, people who have been in wheelchairs for life - much of the time, not all - look at people who walk and feel no envy or jealousy what-so-ever. I've used this comparison before but I'll use it again, because it's a valid one: I've never wished I was black, or blonde, and I've never wished I had brown eyes, or that I was less hairy. Why would I wish I was any different? The world is *usually* adequately equipped to make my life as a wheelchair user just as easy as yours is. When it isn't, it's my environment's problem, not mine - the environment is not adapted to the needs of disabled people, and that is the difficulty; my not being able to walk is no problem. The fact that it bothers others, is.
Black, blond, brown eyes, less hairy....those are all pretty much cosmetic.
While l agree with you on almost all of your points.......I do have one question.
Being that you are in a wheelchair, if someone came along and said, "I have the power to make your legs work and you will be able to walk.".....would you do it?

I have made mistakes that I wanted to wish away as easily. Unfortunately for you, people are going to talk about it until they are "fucking" done talking about it. Don't worry, it will all be over soon and we can all get on to discussing tv shows again.

Oh no, none of you have ever did anything wrong in your life right?
BULLSHIT.
Maybe it was not the nicest thing to do, okay. But give me a break please people. I love how all of you put on a front like you are totally innocent people.
The regular ones who I talk to on here know I am not a bad guy.
Lighten up.

Dude, what I really don't understand is why you give a shit what a bunch of people on a message board say or feel or think of you!?!? Seriously, this will be deleted or locked soon enough and we can continue with all the fucking depressing shitty threads they let go for almost 50 pages!!

agreed. he is a good guy. everyone just needs to back off a bit. its not like he beat the shit outta someone and stole a wheelchair to sell it for crack and hookers here. calm down people.

While l agree with you on almost all of your points.......I do have one question.
Being that you are in a wheelchair, if someone came along and said, "I have the power to make your legs work and you will be able to walk.".....would you do it?
thank you.
those were my exact thoughts reading many of the posts.
you cannot compare appearances to abilities. as in ,sure, many are advantaged/disadvantaged to some degree by their appearance....but it is just SURFACE.
i think when discussing walking/not walking, while yes, i think most who have the ability to walk would escirbe it as being *better* than NOT being able to walk, moreso i think to say one would NOT want the ability simply b/c they have never experienced isn't quite true. who hasn't said :
i wish i could fly?
i wish i could play an instrument?
i wish i was good at math/science/writing/painting...etc?
it's about abilities, not features. there are many things i have never done, probably never will, nor could...and while i'd not describe it as *envy*...or being *better*...i can safely say, yes, it would be nice to experience, to be able to do so.
do i think my life is *less* because i cannot do these things? no, absolutely not.
and no, i have no idea what it's like to be in a wheelchair, and honestly i don't want to know firsthand. i have never thought *less* of someone b/c of it, and i would not think less of them for wanting the ability to walk.
btw - i enjoy many *sitting* actitivies as well. art was my major in college and grad school...but in no way would i want to stop having the ability to walk, even if i enjoy sitting on my arse a great deal. it's not about less or better....just being able to have the CHOICE.
now, maybe some people wouldn't want the choice, but i would think...why not? that said, i say that as a fully able-bodied person, so only can say how *I* think...but yes, thanks vedd.
as to the original post....i think it's been well-covered.
Dude, what I really don't understand is why you give a shit what a bunch of people on a message board say or feel or think of you!?!?
Dude, I think you are talking to the wrong person....

I was thinking like "no, actually, I have never done anything wrong." and then the first and only thing that came to my mind was that I often leave my cell phone charger plugged in.
haha.. that was the first and only bad thing that came to mind?? :D
I don't even know why that's such a bad thing... my charger's plugged in all the time. I'm pretty sure it's not going to burn my place down or make my electric bill go way up. just makes it easier to charge my phone
Whoa, chill bro... you know you can't raise your voice like that when the lion's here.
Haha!
ok, I really wasn't sure. I can't tell sometimes on here.
Hopefully, though, all lessons have been learned and we are all able to move on.
Acousticguy, good luck and I hope you don't let all the negativity get you down. Like I said, we all make mistakes. The most important thing (I think) is to remember we all have a lot to learn.

Why are you so mad that people are still discussing this? You are the one who posted/bragged about it. I applaud you for apologizing and admitting your bad judgment. We all make mistakes, but I just found this post extremely hilarious and ironic considering your over the top/unrelentless bashing of Gypsies. Then posting about having to put up a sign at your store because of inconsiderate people who took advantage of your sample bowl. Oh, how could they, the nerve!!
I love this board ..

Black, blond, brown eyes, less hairy....those are all pretty much cosmetic.
While l agree with you on almost all of your points.......I do have one question.
Being that you are in a wheelchair, if someone came along and said, "I have the power to make your legs work and you will be able to walk.".....would you do it?
I have had that offered to me many times, actually, and many times I have said 'No, thankyou.' Just the once or twice, I've included a 'Fuck off' as well. And I know many, many people who have done the same.
However much anybody would like to consciously say that being able to walk isn't 'better' than not being able to walk, I challenge any able-bodied person on this board.. yes, even you.. to admit that they most probably believe the opposite subconsciously.
By the way, being blonde or tall or having brown eyes is in no way cosmetic. It's science - as is being disabled. But if I were to use your terminology, I would put it to you that being able to walk is indeed 'cosmetic' and is in no way inherently tied to a better existence.
'We're learning songs for baby Jesus' birthday. His mum and dad were Merry and Joseph. He had a bed made of clay and the three kings bought him Gold, Frankenstein and Merv as presents.'
i worked at a hotel and heres the thing about wheelchair room. you sell out all of your other rooms first. if someone asks for a wheel chair room then, amen you sell it at the regular price. if you are sold out and someone had a regular room and you run out and give them a handicap room then you have to discount it . heavily. if you are almost sold out, you can legally sell those rooms at the going rate. yes we have to have wheelchair rooms but to Not sell them who isnt in a wheelchair when they are the only rooms then that is biased against unwheelchair people. its kinda like a best efforts to give wheelchair accessible rooms to wheelchair pple. as long as you give it your best efforts then your fine.
stuff wheelchair rooms have to have. showers. handles. and shelves that are lower. thats about it for the difference.

I agree with you that most people blieve the opposite subconsciously. I probably believe the opposite, not subconsciously, but very consciously. Is that a bad thing, I dont know. I dont mean any harm in it.
When I see a blind person, I feel bad they cannot see.
When I see a deaf person, I feel bad they cannot hear.
When I see a person in a wheelchair, I feel bad they cannot run, walk, jump, and in some cases, have sexual experiences.
But all that being said, I wish I was taller, more athletic, better looking and had a larger wang.
I dont think those things are cosmetic, but ability (Except for the better looking part). But even in those cases, what I "wish" for are abilities beyond the "norm", (I know, you probably will ahte the fact that I use the word norm, but I dont know how else to phrase it.). I might wish I was a pro athlete or rock star, orsomething like that. But I also think about all the great abilities I do have. So, yes, when I think about what I would wish for, and what I have, I am glad that I do have my abilities.
Not sure if that makes sense. And please, just know Im trying to make sense of all of this.
So, youre saying then, that you would not want to experience running with your legs, jumping at a concert, etc?

You feel bad they don't have sexual experiences? Oh God, have you just opened up a can of worms my friend!
So, youre saying then, that you would not want to experience running with your legs, jumping at a concert, etc?
No, I've never wished I could do any of those things. I have no need to run. I can punch my fists in the air at concerts, nod my head and scream my lungs out til it fills the room.. I feel no need to jump. I do, however, like to avoid security guards and put my wheelchair in the middle of moshpits wherever possible.

I know you're not speaking for everyone, but as my bf is in a wheelchair I'd like to add my POV.
Why would he want to run? He's faster than me in that chair..I have a job to keep up.
Jumping at a concert? We're going in 3 weeks, I'll let you know how the moshpit is
And as for the lack of sexual experiences..... I ain't saying nothin.....;)
he said in SOME cases. SOME cases. you're jumping up and down unnecessarily.
I would counter his 'in some cases' and suggest that it is 'in very few cases'... There are just as many people without sexual experience who can walk.
