I don't actually unless it's a busy restroom and it's the only one available.

One of my wife's best friends has one of those things because she has low grade muscular dystrophy and "it can affect her ability to walk long distances into the store." She's too embarrassed to use the tag at work, so she only puts it out when she goes to the mall and to festivals - where she has to walk long distances, but doesn't like to put up with the parking hassle.

Wait, so what you're saying is I'm supposed to wait but they shouldn't have to?

That's (frank)ed up. I'm sorry, but the stall is designed to give them extra room, not make them not have to wait at all like the rest of us.

That's exactly what I'm saying.

They're already not "like the rest of us," by defininition, and have enough challenges in life (and in that stall) without having to wait for some entitled 17-item-in-the-15-item-lane Kardashian to finish their biz before taking advantage of the small benefit the law entitles them to under the ADA.

Listen, you know nothing about me, so why don't you stop making assumptions?

I don't feel entitled in any way, let me tell you. I bust my ass for everything I have and to get the things I want. I, in no way, expect anything to be handed to me.

I can't believe people are getting on you for having 2 (!) more items in a 15 items or less lane. They have no idea how busy that lane was at that exact moment or how many other lanes are available at that time. So maybe you should have "split" your order, so it takes longer, but you have 15 items and 2 items. Would that make them happier?

I have two pet peeves in life that I believe should permit me to punch the violator immediately, directly on the nose, without any consequence whatsoever.

1. Jackholes who drive in the left lane, slowly, when nobody is in the right lane.

2. People who take more than 7 items into the express lane at Wegmans. (By the way, 10 cups of yogurt are not "1 item" unless they are connected in some kind of carton.)

EDIT:

Also, those idiot loser bartenders who say things like "Don't you think you've had enough, buddy?" and cant tell when a guy is just unwinding and having a little fun.

The reason that the Sutter trade/signing gets so much flak is that he really is not a strong player in any regard with the exception of his individual goal scoring. In fact, he even makes his line mates worse:


As the top chart shows, his teammates possession numbers get worse when playing with him both offensively and defensively. Now the bottom chart shows that he somehow managed to avoid getting scored on a lot, despite giving up a (frank)ton of shots against (which helped make him a positive +/- player) while also not helping his teammates score any goals, thus showing he has almost zero playmaking ability.

Now compare Sutter with Bonino:




You can see that Bonino beats Sutter in every category with the exception of playing time and Goals against/60 (which still is not a large drop off). Sutter is best known for his goal scoring and even there Bonino scored at a higher rate when the ice time each player saw was taken into account.

The result that Pittsburgh received Bonino in the trade as well as assets for a lesser player is why Pitt killed that trade. And also why I am super happy we have Murray as our GM and not Benning

- MattFreaknEllis

You lost me when you said individual goal scoring, as if it's meaningless.

Brandon Sutter isn't someone who should be relied upon to make his Linemates better, he's a 3rd liner who can score some goals.

There is no law that says you cannot use the handicap stall in a public restroom. I'm pretty much the furthest thing from a rule breaker. Doing so does not make me "entitled" in any way. Those were your words.

I guess the moms that go in those stalls with their kids are entitled also.

Those stalls are not for handicapped only. They are labeled for being handicap friendly as mandated by law . Use them as you please.

In the military they make you do that... Maybe they are having flashbacks?
