Woahhhhhh Slow Down Speedy !!!!
Ok so imagine you just bought a new pair of shoes and are walking down the street in them, people see you and theatrically divebomb out of your path as if some crazy ass sniper just lined a lazer dot up on their forehead ..... and then when you think the level of stupid has risen to it's max ..... out come the words .....

                "Woahh SLOW DOWN SPEEDY !!!! "

Slow down ??? Slow down ??? I'm in a wheelchair and depending on which I am using that day (Manual or power ) The maximum speed I have the option of travelling at is approximately equal to the speed your husband gets out of the door when you tell him it's time to go clothes shopping ..... ( For those that don't have a husband .... that is really REALLY slowly !!! ) Well that is what happens daily to wheelies ..... our wheels are our feet , our legs, well most of our body most of the time !
The only time I am likely to slow down is if their feet are under my wheels .... then and only then will I slow down and go really s l o w l y !! Oh and the fact that they laugh hysterically whilst I simply give them " The Look " Is not any more amusing !! So remember next time you put those shoes on and put one foot in front of the other ...... Slow down folks !!!

Fancy a race ?  Sure ! Let me just park my wheelchair up and do a warm up and i'll sprint your ass off !!! Seriously why do you think it's funny to offer to race me because i'm in a chair ?! Firstly I would win ..... no really I would ! Secondly you'd end up with very sore feet ... not from running so fast in order to beat me but because in order to beat you I would have to run your feet over ( and possibly the rest of you depending what sort of mood i'm in ;) ) so that I can leave you squirming on the floor like a squashed slug ( nice visual huh ? ) My chair is a wheelchair not a rocket ( unfortunately ) So foul play WOULD be required AND used !! So ..... meet you at the starting line ? 😋
Have you got a licence for that thing ?! Have you got a licence for your legs ?! or your feet ?! or both ?! Didn't think so ... would it be stupid to ask that ? .......... So of course the answer would be NO! I don't ..... because it isn't a car ...it's a wheelchair ... *rolls eyes* Although I DID have to pass a test ..... no really I did !! Before I was "allowed" to use a powerchair I was taken into a car park and asked to read the registration plate of a car parked 20 metres away .... I know this because he embarrassingly walked that distance pushing one of those metre wheels you used to LOVE using at school.....the ONLY maths lesson that was made enjoyable for most of us !! .. Then I had to negotiate around a series of cones set up to make me fail...... but I DID IT ! Ha ! In your face miserable suited man ! Then he put some chairs in my way ..... I ACED it ! he was clearly either gutted or impressed .... or maybe he just had wind I really ...
