To be clear: this is not a jab at weight, what I'm baffled by is why tf would anyone in a wheelchair use a walking stick like that?

To be clear: I know why the dude has the cane, what im asking about/pointing out is the absurdity of the way he uses the cane in this specific clip, not speculation on the way he uses it in his general life. Just for those in the comments who mistakenly think I’m asking why the dude had the stick in the first place, when I’m asking about the way in which he uses it in this clip. Thank you.

Because people have to get from the chair to a toilet, in a vehicle, in and out of bed, the shower...

Yeah, I mean he doesn’t really look like he’s going anywhere like that, I could be wrong. No my point isn’t why he has the stick, but rather why is he using it like that? I get why he has it, but not why he uses it whilst sat in a motorised wheelchair.

[–] Maeve@kbin.earth 1 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

I think not hitting other and tiring to hold up I'd a fair guess.

[–] ReconciliationTime22128@sh.itjust.works 1 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

He could hang it on the back though?

[–] Maeve@kbin.earth 1 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Maybe he didn't think of it or doesn't want someone to lift it.

[–] ReconciliationTime22128@sh.itjust.works 2 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Good point, although I’m not entirely sure what you mean by ‘lift it’ (I presume you mean shoplift I.e. steal it)?

but clearly not the salad bar.

People become bedridden/immobile. Emotional eating is a coping mechanism as much as drugs, alcohol, sex, porn, gambling, talking, overexercising, or judging others.

As I said in the post: let’s not bring weight into the equation, we all know where them sort of convos on places like this go
