I was using the lame like lazy, as in those unwilling to walk, rather than the medically disabled

You have some pain in the legs while walking because you live a sedentary lifestyle, you shouldn't get a scooter, come back when you're able to walk around. You're temporarily injured and unable to walk, maybe you should undertake this activity at a different time. You're actually disabled and would be unable to experience this or that without a scooter, sure have a scooter, cut the line, let me know what we can do to help.

More physically demanding activities naturally filter out casual crowds . It reminds me of the era when smoking bars inadvertently kept the Instagram crowd away—the built-in barrier to entry just makes things better.

  - You just said yesterday that providing "the lame" with scooters that impacts the ableds experience is "insane"! - By jjwalker August 20, 2026 at 01:32:20 AM

      - So you're stupid and a dick. That's not the definition. "Lame" has been long used to describe the (truly!) disabled, often in a derogatory fashion.... - By jjwalker August 20, 2026 at 01:53:56 AM
        
        I have no clue if anyone I meet is disabled or faking it. Nor would I ask. The truly disabled are far more disadvantaged by the mass of scammers than anyone else. Still we shouldn't insulate terrible people from well-deserved criticism for fear of offending the handicapped - By Arctic August 20, 2026 at 02:23:28 AM
        
        Jesus fucking christ, are you capable of learning anything? At the very least, 86 your misuse of the word "lame"... - By jjwalker August 20, 2026 at 03:03:27 AM
        
        Yes, in my mind it is undeniably absurd that a multi billion dollar opperation like Disney cannot manage its accessibility systems or planning effectively without creating a setup that invites mass abuse, ultimately degrading the experience for everyone involved—more so those with genuine needs - By Arctic August 20, 2026 at 03:20:56 AM
        
        What do you propose? All the money in the world can't create a suedeish "real or fake" test. It's almost like this issue is very complicated, and shouldn't be made overly simplistic by a guy too dumb to know the definition of the words he uses.* - By jjwalker August 20, 2026 at 03:24:19 AM
        
        This is like arguing with a woke DSA pedant. Instead of addressing how system abuse hurts people who actually need access, you hyper-fixate on vocabulary* - By Arctic August 20, 2026 at 03:38:06 AM
        
        I'll acknowledge that you worked so, so hard not to learn a damned thing. It's really impressive. - By jjwalker August 20, 2026 at 03:40:40 AM
        
        I know this board self polices and you are both long termers that know that, but can you watch the tone a little? - By Rich August 20, 2026 at 10:17:37 AM
        
        Suede, you see what I'm saying now? ^^^^^^^^^* - By jjwalker August 20, 2026 at 02:05:12 AM
        
        No, I don’t see what you’re saying because your drunken ramblings are impossible to parse. You should not drink alcohol. (nm) - By suede August 20, 2026 at 05:14:17 AM
