Handicapped (for entertainment....do not be offended)

I got nothing against the handicapped; I respect them very much, but if they’re always saying they don't want special treatment, let's not give it to them. Let's take their parking sports, take their special bathroom stalls, and stop letting skip the lines at all the theme parks.(random thought: can paralyzed people feel the weightlessness on roller coasters?) Don't get me wrong, they still need to be accommodated. Keep the ramps and bars in the stalls, but I'm getting a little tired of having to hold going to the bathroom in public places because I don't want to feel bad for using the handicap stall. No offense, but why should I have to wait? Why are they "better than me"? I'm much better than them...I can walk. (It's a joke) I mean they shouldn't even mind waiting; they have somewhere to sit while they wait. (Sidetrack...here's an idea, chairs in the bathroom so you don’t have to stand while you wait.)

As for the parking spots, they're not that big a deal. They get maybe 4 spots to every 1200 regular spots. (Random thought: is there extra handicap parking at hospitals?) My problem with the handicap parking is the people that don't need the spots using them. Being old isn't a handicap. I don't need some geriatric that’s at the mall trying to "exercise" taking the good spot by the food court keeping me from my chicken teriyaki. And if you're too old that you can't walk an extra 85 feet maybe driving yourself isn’t the best form of transportation. And the rest of you that steal your parents/grandparents handicap sign for your car, go fuck yourselves.

These are just some thoughts I had, I hope I didn’t step on anyone’s toes when they read this, but let’s be honest if you're handicapped you can't feel them anyways.
