I just happen to use a wheelchair. I also just happen to like outrageous clothes (wheelchair or no!). A woman came up to me and said, "my son is in a wheelchair too - he'd love your hat". What the hell has wheels gotta do with it?

"No - your fat makes you look fat."



"Nescaf� - you can't hide what's authentic."
