You unwashed diminutive victim of job alternative deprivation.

For so long I had read the end of that sentence as "alternative job deprivation," like lack of employment opportunities. It just occurred to me that the meaning is totally different in the proper reading.

**Gredival** · 2016-05-31 18:32

Well it's dirty little whore...

**Greatguardian** · 2016-05-31 19:03

Oh. So lack of alternative job options is the correct reading. "Job alternative deprivation" makes me think someone is being deprived of a job alternative, as in something to do instead of a job. Like an alternative to work in general.

We tried it. In 1798 (later revised in 1941 and the basis for detaining Japanese, Italian, and German-Americans and placing them in internment camps). And in 1918. And 1940. And was attempted in 2007.

Eh I don't think that counts, letting a poor blind guy order through the drive through seems pretty reasonable to me lol, suing isn't really necessary but if it'll change things whatever, it's McDonalds lol can't really feel an iota of anything for them getting sued
I don't really know how blind people manage not to get run over though (I have 20/20 and I'm almost run over nearly every day on the sidewalk) or how they even get to a McDonalds drivethrough by themselves, it's practically a superpower lol but if they can somehow make it safely and are ordering up they should damn well get their hard-earned fries IMO

I'm sure their stance will be, the restaurant is closed, we don't serve anyone walking through the drive-through. I remember hearing stories from friends who used to go partying on Friday/Saturday nights who were turned away from the drive through window for the same reason. They were on foot, the restaurant is closed, come back in a vehicle.

In other news, there appears to be something funny about tweeting a British PM that you're not going to rape them. I'm not sure where I stand on this. I think it can be borderline harassment, not because of someone telling them you aren't going to rape them, but because it's unwanted tweets that the people know this person already has an issue with. I get that's probably what they're going for, I just think it's not a great idea.

Students at the Texas high school said they are not allowed to wear National Honor Society regalia, signifying high grades and community service, as it might make other students feel excluded.

That's full on retarded.

It was more along the lines he is trying to make it out to be discriminating against disabled people when no one is allowed to walk thru the drive thru because it's a huge safety liability. ie the guy is playing the disabled card for preferential treatment
