ADA Wank, with a side of Mac Vs. PC and Liberal Vs. Conservative!
So, two California women are suing Apple for alleged accessibility violations in its SF retail store. The comments on the article are, needless to say, wanky, with some complaining about the liberal activist agenda, allegations that the women are just out to make a quick buck, and the occasional disabled person chiming in on both sides of the issue.

Also, WTF is a "standing wheelchair?"

	Oh please. Everyone knows that the ideal Apple store should be extremely user-friendly but only compatible with 1 out of every 10 customers. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Oh thank you for saying something funny! (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Dammit. That means I should avoid entering Apple stores, because they'll probably burn down or whatever the real-life equivalent of freezing up is. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	If that were the case, the Pacific Northeast would be suffering from nuclear fireballs every couple of hours. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Yes, because that is so much more entertaining than the old rotating beachball of doom. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	And that 1 in 10 would be so smug about it, too. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Not as smug as the Linux users, though. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	wankprophet 2007-09-01 09:09 am UTC (link)
	Linux users never make it into the store because they're too busy standing outside in the rain while ooh-ing and ahh-ing over how solid the sidewalk beneath their feet is. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cmdr_zoom 2007-09-01 09:28 pm UTC (link)
	The sidewalk? Are you sure? It's so common and plebian... anyone can use the sidewalk, even mouth-breathing lusers. Only the SPESHUL people understand Linux! (Reply to this)(Parent)
