Things that crack me up, #35

WARNING! We're out there.















This doesn't always amuse me, but the persistent need to identify disabled persons' nearby presence -- distinct from identifying disabled access or other services -- does often crack me up.

"Ohmygod! They're lurking somewhere close! Those people you try not to stare at and never know what to say to. Look out! They're here!"

Photo descriptions: The first photo is a blurry color image of a yellow warning sign with the silhouettes of a man and woman walking. Below, a smaller yellow sign explains, "DISABLED." Flickr photo by dinaAZ.

Second photo is a color image of a white triangular warning sign with a red border. The silhouetted image is of a person riding a horse and a white sign below this one explains, "Disabled riders." Flickr photo by octa 2 yossie.















The third photo is a close-up of a big white sign with block letters. In red and underlined: "WARNING" followed by black text: "ELDERLY AND DISABLED PEOPLE." Flickr photo by markydeedroppics.
