So me and my boyfriend were out a couple of weeks ago and having a really good time until...some weird guy came up to me and said I want to see you sit in his lap. At first I didn't think I heard him right (it was loud in the bar). So I asked him to repeat himself and sure enough the drunk freak said what I thought he did. My boyfriend always sticks his drinks in between his legs so I just simply told him that my boyfriend had a drink in his lap (thinking it would make him go away). I walked behind my boyfriend just in time to see the prick leaning down over my boyfriend, telling him something really quick, and picking up the drink in my boyfriends lap. Of course since the guy was waxed he "accidently" drops the drink which of course lands right in my bf's lap, spilling all over him! I didn't see my bf's face but I knew he was pissed the way he threw his hands up in the air. He told the guy to f$@k off but the guy simply wouldn't walk away. He kept insisting that he buy my bf another drink. After everyone we were with practically pushed him away was when he was finally gone.
This by far has been the creepiest thing I've come across. Anyone else come across a
creep like this?

I can reassure you ..

I can get equally drunk in my wheels and say equally stupid drunk words
Drunks are drunks whether on legs the ground or in wheels
Been all 3 actualy

Yeah,,, Assholes are everywhere,,,, but,, if you think about it,,,, we are all assholes at sometime in our lives.

For some it's just a momentary lapse,, for others, it's a lifetime commitment.

One thing you learn after being in a chair for a while,, is that you have to roll with the punches if you want to survive.

My fiance and I were at a Bell X1 concert one evening. The venue it was at is standing room only, so the club provides an area at the front of the stage for wheelchair users. During the concert, this guy kept moving closer and closer to us, until he was eventually standing next to me. He was clearly wasted and reeked of alcohol. He leaned over to say something to my fiance and lost his balance, fell on to my fiance's lap and smacked his head on the metal railing. He stayed next to us for the rest of the show.

At first I thought he was hanging around, trying to look like he was with us, to get closer to the stage. Once the concert was over, though, he asked what we thought of it. My fiance answered and the next question asked was "Are you Irish?" (Bell X1 is from Ireland). He'd just hear both of us talking, and our accents couldn't be further away from an Irish accent, so it seemed sort of obvious to me. My fiance answered no and then the guy started going on about how since it is an Irish band, he thought the audience would be Irish (we are close to Washington DC). He repeated that several times and started telling us that it was too bad we weren't. He wasn't Irish, either.

As if that weren't strange enough, we headed towards the door and the guy followed us, talking all the way. He kept going on and on about how curious he was about us and how he had so many questions. He tried to get us to go to a bar with him, offered to buy us drinks and a late dinner. We turned him down and headed towards the car. At this point, we were both getting a little irritated with him and my fiance finally told him to just ask his questions, that he would gladly answer, if the guy would leave us alone once they were answered. The guy went back to repeating that he just had so many, it was impossible to know where to start. Eventually, I threatened to get the security from the club, which finally shut him up. As we were getting into the car, he yelled across the lot that he wanted to have a threesome with us. We got the hell out of there as fast as possible.

My husband and I refer to this guy as the "killa!"

We live in NY, and we often travel to visit his parents in Ohio. It's about an 8 hour drive, and for one visit, we arrived on a Friday morning at about 1AM. I had my contacts in the whole drive and forgot my saline solution, so we were planning to stop at the 24-hour grocery store to get some. When we were getting out of the car, there is this guy yelling "F--k you, f--k you dude" We had no idea where it was coming from. It takes me about a minute to get out of the car, and by then the yelling had stopped. Just as I'm about to go from the driver's seat to my chair, this guy appears right behind my husband. He was like this drunk ninja that just appeared, we didn't even hear him. He's like "Did yooooou hear what that F--k said to me?!?! Did you hear?!"

My husband is a very calm cool natured guy, and he just listens and acts so content when someone is talking. The guy came over to us acting like a raving lunatic, saying that someone almost hit him and he wanted to know if we heard or saw it. There was NO ONE in the parking lot when we got there. We saw a man at the entrance when we first drove up, but there wasn't a single car, so I had no idea what he was talking about.

Anyhow, he keeps talking for about 2 minutes before I attempt to get out of the car. (I was still in the driver's seat) I'm not even sure he knew I was there, he'd been talking to Nathan the whole time. He finally sees me and he says "I dated this one bitch before that was in a wheelchair. She used to nag me." I can't remember exactly what he had said, but he kept talking about how this woman used to yell at him and how he almost killed her. He went off saying "I'm a killer! I'm a killer! and how she almost pushed him too far."

The guy was soo drunk. You could smell him 3 feet away, and the entire time, Nathan's just shaking his head agreeing to everything this guy says. He's such a puppy with people, he's so gentle and calm, and by the end of the conversation he was telling him he could be a life partner. If we ever needed a friend, he would be a real friend to us, and we could all be life partners. He gave us a drunk hug before staggering off into the empty parking lot and we ran (I wheeled) as fast as we could in Kroger. Very, very creepy.

"Imma Killa!"

Blue eyes, obviously your bf is much more patient than I, cus when the dork leaned in I'd have ahold of him with one hand and proving that just because my legs don't work, my arms sure as hell do!

Haha! Yes my bf is a very patient person which I think is why we get along so great bc I'm the most impatient person ever. That was the first time I saw him actually mad. People are crazy!

[airart1]

you just have to over look drunks............

[wheeliebear75]

Wow that guy was off the scale on the prick-o-meter!

[Ec E Ryda]

I dont know if its just me but before i was paralyzed i didnt pay any attention to who was looking at me, but now that im in a wheelchair i always have that in the back of my mind when im out in public. Maybe im just being paranoid but does any1 else have that feeling other than me?

[airart1]

don't sweat it, wait till you find out your the guy in the chair, i had retail business's and all my friends in chairs were me, no matter when or where they seen me or my friends, oh, u the guy in the mall.......it would be any of the guys i would know in a wheelchair, it got to be funny...............we were all the same person, no matter when or where...........

Whenever I start feeling like people are staring i start showing off, wheelies, spinning around, wheelies with one hand, drop curbs etc... if a kid is starring at me i usually stick my tongue out at 'em either makes them stare more or crack a smile, or blush and hide

[MaggieT]

this cat was not drunk but rude none the less.....we were downtown walking around, looking at all the lil shops and stands that people have in the summer time on Spring Garden rd, when this group guys/kids whatever they thought they were, pulls up and said hey we turn, the guy looks at me and tells me i should have my dog on a leash, rob and i were like what????...we left the dog at home, so we brushed it off and paied no mind.....then the guy said again, hey lady you should have that freak dog of yours there on a leash.....ever here a lady say fcuk off in a crowd of people.....if not you should have heard me.....i threw my drink in the guys face and told him to fcuk off....and well he did!!

i have a shot temper when it comes to that kind of crap.....

[Heather1984]

I think drunk folks in bars are all crazy . My husband and I went out last saturday. I always have the old men coming up to me trying to talk. What really makes me mad is sometimes my husband will pick me up and dance with me and then all the crazy drunks think they can do it too. I always have to have my guy friend as my bodyguards haha.. Don't worry about the stupid people in the world.

[Boggs52]

Bars. I avoid them for just that sort of reason.

One particular time I was in a bar in Sitka Alaska. Having a beer, minding my own business. Guy walks in from the street. Walks the entire length of the fairly busy bar. When he gets to me he pauses for a second, pats me on the shoulder and says "How's it goin' there buddy"

I turned around and replied: "One, I ain't your buddy. And two, I'm not the bar dog either"

I have found in the past that gimps are a magnet for drunk assholes. They either want to fall over you and tell you about their buddy/family member who is in a chair or, in my case, given my age, tell me about their friend in 'Nam who got paralyzed.

If i was an alcoholic and had no pride at all I could likely drink the rest of my life for free. Would have to wear a worn fatigue shirt and maybe a boonie cap to make it work. (Seriously, I could never do that)

You are so right there, I went to see a couple of live bands and people just approach me like they think I'm friendly just cos I'm in a chair then when I'm not (I have never liked being approached by strangers, nothing good ever comes of it ha) they assume I'm bitter about being in a wheelchair. If I wanted someone to know my name I would tell them. It is not my idea of fun to be asked how I'm in the wheelchair (talk about buzz kill). Why me?! Why don't they bother the walkers?

[Ratticis]

But wheelchair automatically means friendsly or depressed and suicidal, just like all fat people are jolly! Heaven forbid we be normal, real people

i attrack the weirdos too. i even befriended a guy in a w-c who was a con artist. he took a lot of people even banks for milliions. i'm glad i'm not greedy cause i bypassed his investment opportunities. i did sell him my house at market peak but the closing went through. i was lucky. he did drop my name around this small town to make people feel he can be trusted. although he was a crook he did take me and my friend to the rolling stones concert in a limo and the famous berns steak house in tampa. it was a great night. he must of used my name as a reference for a number of loans because i have debt collectors calling for him still after 6 years.

this is just one of my many weirdos i've met through the years.

[Texas Angel Ang]

Oooo I have many many stories in fact I actually posted a thread about one incident before.

I don't mind when people come up and talk to me and usually if I'm not in the mood to deal with over-the-top drunk people I will tell them and USUALLY they think it's great that I speak my mind... yaay me lol.
