Wheelchair Adventures

Things that happen to people in wheelchairs. 

Why does anyone say not to get angry about this shit?  If someone grabs your body you are entitled to get angry.  Your adaptive equipment counts as part of your body for this purpose, especially if people are also grabbing your meat.  Maybe if more disabled people would rip the heads off people who grope them, it would happen less.  Try a very loud "DON'T TOUCH ME THERE!"

Also, if nonverbal, an air horn should make gropers jump away from you.

I have to agree with you. A wheelchair, or any item designed to make life easier on someone who's handicapped, is an artifact of Alignment Detection.
And that includes eyeglasses!

I can just imagine someone in T-America hiring out as a tester to reveal the alignment of a prospective boyfriend or girlfriend.
