1queer1 A 'Queer in London's tiny bits of life, thoughts, and things too long for Twitter.

Fuck you!

Seriously. Person gets on bus with cane and everyone of your pampered able bodied wankers blanks them (Oh and when the bus stops at the main stop you are ALL abled bodied and rushed to the exit) not even a ‘ahem’ will cause you to acknowledge them.

So you sit there for two stops in your ‘please give up for those less able to stand’ seats and ignore me. 

Being “too british” to do much more than glower at you all I do my best to stand for the two stops- around the roundabout I usually get concerned looks from those standing around me, as I have trouble keeping upright.

Yes I have a cane

Yes I look reasonably healthy and fit (I am, and I can swim a mile in quite a decent time)

But I need a bloody cane as I can’t fucken balance!

So- what I wish for you 30 lovely people- and anyone who blanks older or disabled people on busses.

May you look as you do now, but with a cane. May you not be able to walk 10 mins, even with the cane. May you find standing on a bus problematic, thus the cane. And may you be blanked by 10 wankers everytime you get on a crowded bus, and be forced to try and stand.

Then you will be walking in my shoes.

and..

Fuck you, fuck you very very much.
