I don’t care how annoying someone is, nobody deserves to be ridiculed over something he or she cannot control. How would you feel if someone treated your kid or family member that way? What if your joke was the one that pushed someone over the edge? Could you live with it? Call out people for being full of shite or annoying, but making fun of a disability is about as despicable as it gets.

Example

Posted by LSUgirl4 online on 12/15/18 at 11:32 pm to OweO have you ever fallen down stairs in your wheelchair? do you just lie there with the drool on your face until someone comes over and cleans you up? do you have to sit in your own fecal matter until your arse gets wiped?


When you get to the point in life where you think talking to someone like this is ok, you need to remove yourself from the situation and get some help.

Downvote away. Idgaf.

If you're going to make fun of someone, the key is to make sure it's actually funny. That shite in the OP is lame af.

What if drawing more attention to said joke pushed them over the edge.

I would just leave it alone. Everyone can see it's in poor taste

OweO's disability isn't what makes him retarded

Making fun of his disability is definitely shitty, but make no mistake, oweo has deliberately earned some criticism round here. Which his disability doesn't shield him from.

Are you trying to appeal to emotion with that argument? It has no basis in logic.

Yeah, that's just mean spirited.

Yeah, Oweo cripple jokes are lame. That said, he always rolls with the punches (which speaks positively to his self-confidence) so I think over time it's been accepted as fair game.

Agreed. It is pretty despicable. Not something that should be against the law, but certainly something to be called out.

This is a bit of a spinoff, but one of my goofy arse old neighbors got a wheelchair from somewhere and rolls around his driveway in and pushes his grandkids around in it and none of them need it. Is it just me or is that stupid and kind of disrespecting people that really need it?

Tyga, I started a thread about oweo, but not about his disability. It was more about his content and production.

What you posted is downright despicable. The quote you posted

I’m constantly shocked at some of the stuff people tell that guy. I understand he can be annoying to some but he rarely insults people & others just take it to him on a personal level. Cyber bullying at its finest

Point of clarification, is being gay considered a disability?
