This is such a judgmental and sad geographical area - as if handicapped or health threatened people actually owe others an explanation?  No way!  Are people that lonely and nosy to think they are due anthers health records?  For real?  The nosy ones are the ones that need help.

As if when you tried to explain a condition, the nosy would actually have the brains or where with all to understand the medical diagnosis?  Yeah right.

Nosy people are not bright, in my experience.

You said it.

About a month ago, I was on my way to a fundraiser for cerebral palsy with my daughter, who has cerebral palsy and is in a wheelchair.  Her wheelchair was in the back of my car.  As I'm stopped at a red light, some genius starts gesturing to my handicapped tag (which I'm only entitled to use when she and her chair are in the car -- but he can't see her chair or her handicap).  He rolls down his window and starts asking me why I have the tag.  I waved and told him to have a nice day.

Why the hell do people act like this?  What the hell is the point?[/quote]
