I swear, weird stuff happens when I’m by myself
RBKA
Few years ago, I was shoe shopping at dicks sporting goods. This kid and his mom come past and the boy is tapping all the mannequins on the leg, very lightly. Well they walk past and eye me and my prosthetic leg, the kid taps the mannequin next to me and its leg falls off. Falls off the platform, rolls to me, and stops right next to my leg. The mom, poor thing, was so embarrassed she couldn’t get a full phrase out. Red as a lobster she was saying “Pick it up, quick grab it.” and was snatching the leg. She tried to put it back on the mannequin in a hurry, not gonna happen. Looks at me as if to ask for help, I said “I can barely put my leg on. We might need a doctor.” To which her son burst out laughing.
I was laughing, he was laughing, his mom was livid and embarrassed. I tried to tell her “Ma’am it could’ve been literally anybody standing here, or nobody. The fact that I happened to be here when the leg fell is a cosmic joke, and one we should appreciate.” Though I don’t think she liked it.
Tried telling the cashiers on my way out, they didn’t find it funny either.
What’s with these able bodied weirdos whack sense of humor?
