Here's the conversation I did NOT have in the parking garage today:
Random Nosy Stranger sees me hit the elevator button whilst on floor 2.
RNS: It's only one flight!
PRHM: Oh, wow, I'm sorry. So how's your asthma today?
RNS: What? I don't have asthma.
PRHM: Well, it must not be bothering you, then. How much are you carrying, there?
RNS: Just a purse...
PRHM: Oh, you must not have about forty pounds worth of paper in your briefcase to bring back to work, then?
RNS:....
PRHM: So you don't have asthma, and you aren't carrying anything?
RNS:.....No...
PRHM: So shut the fuck up.
No, I didn't have that conversation. I didn't even give the RNS the satisfaction of defensively noting that I have asthma. I just deathglared.
Ah, invisible intermittent disabilities, you reveal to us the asshats that walk among us. We thank you for that.
health wank and whining
