How do you post a story now? I used to post tons of stories before INN disappeared but now it's back, the 2 stories I wrote are not on the list. Are they vetted more now or something?
Just post them on the forum at http://forum.isitnormal.com/. Whatever you can't post here, you can post there. The only drawback is that your username will appear when posting on the forum. So maybe you could create one username on the forum to post stories or topics, and create another username or usernames on the forum for other stuff such as making comments in your own or another person's story or topic. This way you'll still remain anonymous because nobody will know that you are the poster of your own stories or topics unless you tell them.
Ehh I see a lot of people on this thread think it is rude etc...It is rude in a way, but not really. I would probably laugh too. I am the same way. It does not make me an evil guy. I just think it looks funny. Now if I were to go up to the one-legged guy and laugh in his face and call him names like "peg leg"..now that's rude and uncalled for.
So as long as you're not taking it further like telling the guy he's a cripple and laughing directly at him, there is really no problem in chuckling a bit.
hell yeah its normal, of coarse as mentioned because of the irony that is. i laughed and i dont feel bad. i have been paralized for seven years using a wheelchair and i find myself laughing at all sorts of things of such matter
I was gonna say screw you, but after reading your whole post I lol'd also! As long as you ent taking them for granted, I reckon it is acceptable. You should make an effort to recompense yourself though, as it is pure evil :-P Spend some time helping at a mental home or sommat, or you will rot in hell.
Fuck that. I take the piss out of almost everything. God, Allah, Jews, religion, vegetarians, ethnic minorities, stupid people, fat people, the Dutch, Eskimos, and pretty much everything else... EXCEPT:
Women: The most amazing creatures on god's green earth. There are obvious exceptions to the rule - but generally I lay off them.
Cripple people: That shit will come back and bite you in the ass if you're not careful. I have a morbid fear of ending up in a wheelchair or without an arm or leg or some other horrible disfigurement. Crippled people are therefore off limits. I will not laugh at them or mock them. End of.
Well , they're allway's asking the "ABLED" to treat them the same..
So i say why the fuck not , my grandad lost a leg in a motorcycle accident , and he say's if you can't take people rippin the piss out of you , you might aswell go and curl into a ball and die..
We all get the piss taken out of us in one way or another , weather its you're acne or you're lack of leg's.. , there shouldn't be limit's just because of some one's incapability's..
I treat all people the same..
Weather there

Y'know when I made my first posts here I was offended.
Yeah, me. LOL.
But after reading the above post by Ploxcube, I think *I* was in error. Yes, go ahead and laugh at me and my chair - I am an equal and should be able to take it.
Of course, that being said, I hope that the rest of you aren't offened if I laugh at you, your looks, your choices of clothes or your (oftentimes questionable) parentage.
Hey, whatever makes you laugh, go for it. Do it around someone who doesn't appreciate the humour and you'll have to answer for it of course. I think laughter is inherently good as long as it doesn't get you into trouble.
Imagine how would it be if they were someone you really love, or your family... you wouldn't laugh. Same thing happened to me when I was 5 years old... because I was a kid!
i wouldn't say ur a dickhead if ur laughing cuz it's ironic. i once laughed at a guy with no leg. but only because he had a peg leg and beard and looked just like a pirate.
TBH it's not competely abnormal. Most people feel sorry for cripples I guess. But it has alot to do with what situation you're in. Like if you're just walking down the street with a friend and suddenly there's someone walking past you looking like a pirate with his pegleg and god knows what. Would you say; "aww, poor guy." Probably not. You'd laugh.
I think it's normal. Even though it may be bad, it's just the way they look that is funny to the human mind. I have to admit, I laugh at crippled people too, but I feel bad doing it.
As long as you don't let them hear you, you don't do it too often and you feel guilty about it. Some people laugh at disabled people because they feel uncomfortable to see them. It's the same reason people laugh hysterically when they are in a dangerous situation.
I'm not laughing at the disability, but the dog as well...that's kinda cute x) It's not that you find all people who are crippled hilarious (at least, I don't think you do) - it's more that you're laughing at that particular thing.
Every one of you that do laugh, are cold heartless stupid mindless people. WHat if you have a child that has a disability someday in your life? WOuld you appreciate people laughing at them? NO! I didn't fucking think so... so next time you fucking see someone that has a disability, fuckin' think about it you mindless fucks! It's not their fucking fault that they have something 'wrong' with them, maybe there's more to them than what you see... and more than 1/2 the time... there is more to them than wtf you see. THINK ABOUT IT NEXT TIME YOU STUPID FUCKS!!!!!!!
Don't you think a one legged person has enough problems without you laughing at him or her.
This person probably got the three legged down because he could understand and relate to the dogs situation, seeing how he as a person was also missing a leg.
One day you could loose a leg and you have to ask if you want to be laughed at or NOT!
Screw the ballbarings, could you please pray as I have no faith anymore that this a-hole gets a bad case of vertigo. It is far worse and then he will truly understand.
I've been in a wheelchair before and I do have one just to remind me of my future. Trust me, its not funny and it kind of sucks if you have no other choice.
I'm a one-legged person and I agree. Some things that aren't really funny are actually funny in a simple way.
I laugh at ethnic people being stereotypical or horribly retarded/disfigured people or other things that people aren't supposed to laugh at.
People laugh at dumb shit I do all the time, anyway. Sometimes I get drunk and throw my prosthetic leg across a room and try to get up to go get it and faceplant. That kinda shit.
I've come to the conclusion that no matter where you go or what you do someone is secretly laughing at you.
We're all hilarious to someone, the crippled and/or severely retarded aren't any different.
I would think not, that would show lack of passion, however, I believe you were laughing at the ironic situation. A crippled man, whom has a crippled dog, as you see, dogs are seen as "athletic". Hope you don't make fun of war veterans... those guys are tough...
I'll admit it, I lol'd when you said "his three-legged dog hobbled out after him". I really respect them for what they do, and feel sorry for them if they want to be felt sorry for. But for some reason, its comedic.
Theres nothing funny bout ANYBODY of ANY ANIMAL having a missing leg and/or arm. So laughing at that kind of stuff is like an oxymoron... Think bout that for a second.. Do u know how sad that is to lose a leg or an arm? It's like a percentage that is no longer part of yor physical life anymore. So if u laugh at that stuff, then u better ask tha lord for forgiveness (No disrespect)
I have a badly deformed hand, and was bullied all through school, but now even I can see the funny side of it! And the one with the dog i think i may have lold as well.
Oh it's fine. I don't laugh at cripples but I understand how they can be funny - I laugh when they're used in jokes and gags. It's good you don't make fun of them because that wouldn't be right - laughing from a distance is fine!
It's sad when people do it, but in the scenario you told, THAT'S HILARIOUS! But if a one legged man walks next to me in the street, I just feel bad for him. It really makes you happy that you were born the way you were
OK, a one-legged man with a 3-legged dog has probably already noticed that this has some potential to be pretty funny, and he may even have had it him to laugh at himself already. People with good character, disabled or not, have the ability to laugh at themselves every now and then. But still...that is a very unique scenario. You wouldn't just laugh at a deformed person for the hell of it, would you? That's just plain cold...
I work with disabled people and know the struggles and frustrations and the loneliness they go through so no but in that incident you described I'd have a smile come to my face like I think most people would. This wouldn't be because of their disability but if I saw a dog tottering along with them 3 legs as well.....then of course!
still try not too, or at least not right at them.
like in borat when he says "you will never get this, you will never get this
and then he escapes, and get THAT"
lol
So as long as you're not taking it further like telling the guy he's a cripple and laughing directly at him, there is really no problem in chuckling a bit.
Cheers.
Did you point?
If so, you may have gone to far, unless you were pointing at the dog I guess.
Goddess, I must be a shoe in for apprval if folk can let bygons be...
@ Poster. Before you laugh at cripples, keep in mind that you may someday find yourself on the receiving end.
Word to the wise.

It's their fault for being crippled, my parents say.
I seen an old man on his mobility scooter totally topple over onto its side once it was the funniest thing I ever saw.
Well , they're allway's asking the "ABLED"

"It's their fault for being crippled, my parents say."
Wow. Just wow. I'd love to have been brought up by those people.
At least I don't think so.
I dunno, maybe it really was just the irony of the situation.
^^ alot of people responded to this..
craziness.
Same thing happened to me when I was 5 years old... because I was a kid!

And the dog thing was kind of funny.
It's not that you find all people who are crippled hilarious (at least, I don't think you do) - it's more that you're laughing at that particular thing.
thats what i do.
and i pretend laughing at something else.
haha. i laughed at your post LMAO.

One day you could loose a leg and you have to ask if you want to be laughed at or NOT!
Those of us who are disabled tend to get annoyed when people laugh. We might "accidentally" roll over your foot or something.
