Do you want to hear a joke?
It’s about the man who wasn’t disabled enough
Lose another arm sir, and then you can park here
As if disability was something the “able” could judge
Hysterical.
Do you want to hear a joke?
It’s about my dad who works at a specialist college
When he takes his students out people move away
they’re uncomfortable, he needs a bell “unclean, unclean”
Hilarious.
Do you want to hear a joke?
Its about the first time I was called spacker
When I was twelve years old and I was learning
That the world was not made for people like me-freaks
Side splitting.
Do you want to hear a joke?
It’s about disabled children about the movies
About how Peeta Mellark never lost his leg
And Hawkeye can hear and why can’t they be a hero for once?
Comedy gold.
Do you want to hear a joke?
It’s about people who think that it affects them the most
When we just can’t do it and yes we are trying
It’s a reason not an excuse. We know. We know.
How witty.
Do you want to hear a joke?
It’s about how disabilities are the punchline
About how autism and a laugh track go hand in hand
How dehumanization causes constant need for validation.
Side splitting.
