Do what you want, but if the trip through the store was hard, your should probably take the scooter. It's not worth your pride to make yourself hurt more, not to mention you'd be the exact kind of person it's meant for.I declined of course, but I found it upsetting and the subsequent trip through the store very hard physically as well.
May I send a squad of doomweasels to visit your mother?I’m having serious issues walking right now and it must be obvious because not only have I broken out my cane again, but I was offered a scooter at Walmart today. I declined of course, but I found it upsetting and the subsequent trip through the store very hard physically as well.
I come home and mention it to friends and my family. The friends tha have seen it so far responded appropriately. My mother?? Sounds better than xxx! Xxx being her current health situation which probably isn’t cool for me to mention here. It’s serious for sure, but this isn’t a competition. No response would have been cool too.
I really hope I’m not quite there yet.Do what you want, but if the trip through the store was hard, your should probably take the scooter. It's not worth your pride to make yourself hurt more, not to mention you'd be the exact kind of person it's meant for.
Oh at least two please.May I send a squad of doomweasels to visit your mother?
Two squads! @Doomweasel minion will be overjoyed!I really hope I’m not quite there yet.
It took me a long time to be comfortable enough to use a cane in public.

Can we send them in little scooters?Oh at least two please.
I think you're looking at it the wrong way. What you need to get your own shopping scooter, but get it in black with, like, flames painted on the side, and fuzzy dice hanging from the basket and, like, glitter everywhere. Own it like a badass.I really hope I’m not quite there yet.

I actually used to volunteer for the Tetra Society, which is an organization that modifies devices for people with physical disabilities. My last project was to adapt a walker for a woman with MS so she could still go to the beach.Hey, those scooters are pretty reasonably priced. And I bet even @HCGLNS could do some modifications...
Two battalions!! Spare no expense, this my mother in law we're talking about! Only the best armageddon for her.Two squads! @Doomweasel minion will be overjoyed!
Pass the scotch.there is something to be said about realizing you are alone. All my rage, my fury, my anger, my loathing, etc etc. I have driven everyone away. The ones that stayed eventually became to broken themselves to stay. Now as some cruel joke I am sitting on a dock alone with my favorite scotch, watching the stars. Only now can I realize the fact. No one is coming back, I will be this unmovable object against the storms of life, but I will be alone in it. I dont want any sympathy, I made this reality and I will have to live with what ive done. thanks for taking the time to listen.
That's going to take an hour at least.Pass the scotch.
Oh man, my teenager did this the other day. Black pulled up socks and these things called "jandals", which apparently translates to "cheap-ass, ugly plastic sandals". I asked him why he was dressed like my dad, and he just scoffed.Dude, I just learned that socks with sandals are now back in style.
It's edgy counter culture.
But apparently lame on people over 18.....
When I was a teacher, I teased the white boys that wore sagging pants with... "Man I can't wait to tell my dad that his droopy drawers are now in fashion."Oh man, my teenager did this the other day.

WHERE DID YOU GET THAT FROM?I never thought I'd be "kids these days have worse fashion than back in my day" guy but here I am.
So she's providing a bunch of evidence, just not the way she thinks she is?My mom has now started texting me links to Fox News to convince me of media bias brainwashing. :|
At least it's only enough time to re-do them and not enough time to have actually grown a broken one back out, right?At least in the hour that this has taken I've managed to re-do my nails so it wasn't a total wash.
Text her back every link with opposing views from other places. Do BBC, CBS, NBC, etc. Show her that ALL of them say the same thing and that Fox is the ONLY one that has changed the story to fit the narrative.My mom has now started texting me links to Fox News to convince me of media bias brainwashing. :|
Yeah it's not worth my time, and wouldn't work anyways.Text her back every link with opposing views from other places. Do BBC, CBS, NBC, etc. Show her that ALL of them say the same thing and that Fox is the ONLY one that has changed the story to fit the narrative.
But that would be exhausting so just ignore her.
It's amazing how deep this conspiracy goes that there's literally only one honest outlet.Text her back every link with opposing views from other places. Do BBC, CBS, NBC, etc. Show her that ALL of them say the same thing and that Fox is the ONLY one that has changed the story to fit the narrative.
But that would be exhausting so just ignore her.
My folks send me Fox News and TBN stuff all the time. I understand your pain.My mom has now started texting me links to Fox News to convince me of media bias brainwashing. :|
