Blind people are hard to offend
As I was walking back home through the campus today, I noticed some people
were pretending to be blind, wearing blindfolds, using the canes, and having
an assistant to help guide them. This is probably a useful exercise in some
way, though it currently escapes me in which way. Anyways, the "blind" people
weren't taking it seriously at all - they were all laughing and smiling and
making a game of it. I thought, man, that must be offensive to blind people,
that these schmoes are walking around like being blind is a big joke. But
then I thought, who the hell cares? It's not like the blind people can see
this at all.
