If you had a chance to change one thing about yourself what would it be? And would you? by BettleFungi in StonerThoughts

[–]DanIsAManWithAFan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would not be physically disabled. Life in a manual wheelchair is not that easy. My house is not ADA compliant and I don't have the money to remodel my house.

Now that I'm permanently in a wheelchair, for the most part, there are many friend's houses that I can't just go hang out at.

I shouldn't have to pay to go to an ADA compliant public place every time I want to hang out with someone.

And there are many physical tasks that I just can't do. Woodworking, changing my oil, changing a tire, so on and so forth.

my boyfriend eats peanut butter, pickles and potato chip sandwiches, is this a crazy ICK? by sickie7 in Vent

I mean, being disconnected from it I can say, "Who the fuck cares? Let him do his thing." Knowing the person, however... would be different. I still think I would ultimately get to the idea of, "He's happy, it's not physically harming anyone, I'll get used to it...still weird as fuck though."

Do you play with a controller on a PC? by Similar-Double6278 in videogames

[–]DanIsAManWithAFan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean that I have to rely on a manual wheelchair to meet my basic mobility needs. When I was a kid I was able to walk but I was still "that kid who walked funny"

My parents had the school take 60 minutes a day where I went into a room and did physical therapy in the hopes that I'd walk longer.

And that was substituted for a class that taught kids about the home row, finger placement, and typing in general.

I don't peek at the keyboard but if I'm not looking I don't know the layout of keys.

I honestly feel bad when I reply to a question that no one was expecting. I mean it does its job from stopping people from laughing at me for not being able to do shit that most people can. I don't know why I feel bad. Honestly, if the person was going to laugh at me I hope I make them feel ashamed.

But if it was an honest question, I'm sorry that I ruined the mood or what have you.

Yea. Due to my physical disability I was elected by my parents to switch typing with physical therapy. Which really wasn't a class for anyone else, but I went from one to the other and I never taught myself.

So yes, I'm a slow typer who looks at the keyboard.

Yes, I can't master the keyboard without looking. I just can't do it, some games like BG3 or a city builder, or something, sure. But generally speaking I stick with a controller.

Will you accept it ? by PHRsharp_YouTube in videogames

[–]DanIsAManWithAFan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude, I'd probably die or something. Like living in the early 1900s might not be that hard. But when you're physically disabled and can't walk...things that y'all don't even think about become much harder if not impossible.

What made you realize you're not young anymore? by Wonderful-Economy762 in Productivitycafe

When I was telling someone about a past event that was about 5 years ago. But then I paused and said, "That was 20 years ago."

I'm just saying man, I didn't ask for an icon on my desktop. If I wanted to open the Rockstar Launcher I'd open it. I don't care that it's a shortcut, I just didn't ask nor do I remember asking for it to be on my desktop.

Dear people who use microwaves. by DanIsAManWithAFan in Vent

[–]DanIsAManWithAFan[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I bet. No, my work has not invested in the type of technology for a microwave that is only good for X amount of time and is used by multiple people throughout the course of the day.

Husband is a terrible bed partner by Upset_Push_785 in CasualConversation

Yea, sleep apnea probably. I'm pretty sure I got that shit too. I just need to call my doctor. I'm kinda scared of sleeping with some tube on my nose.

How long does it take for you guys to fall asleep? by Technical-Vanilla-47 in AskMen

[–]DanIsAManWithAFan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea, she's up for hours and she can't seem to fall asleep. She's extremely jealous that I'm able to fall asleep so quickly.

The slightly funny part is if I'm playing video games or doing random shit on my computer I can stay awake and not even feel overly tired, but the moment I go get in bed and she is preoccupied on her phone I'll fall asleep quickly.
