Maybe the title should be "Laughing at or with disabled people" ... ?
Anyway, I've just read this article ...
http://news.bbc.co.uk /1/hi/entertainment/tv_and_radio/3481859.stm
... and it was refreshing to see that they're not going over the top, as is usual with people trying to be all 'politically correct'. It'll be interesting to see whether these disabled performers are any good or have simply gotten through because of their disability.

Let me have the power to, and I quote, "electrocute-obliterate".

You should use your anger and turn to the darkside, building an army of mechanised wheel based robots (the alien innards will be hard to come by but Pedigree chum or perhaps dead roadkill would suffice) that can go up, down, electrocute-obliterate anyone who has the audacity to cover their eye stalks with a hand or blanket and has an "overide" control that makes them "accidentally" trundle into female changing rooms and ministerial meetings.
That'd rule.

You should use your anger and turn to the darkside, building an army of mechanised wheel based robots (the alien innards will be hard to come by but Pedigree chum or perhaps dead roadkill would suffice) that can go up, down, electrocute-obliterate anyone who has the audacity to cover their eye stalks with a hand or blanket and has an "overide" control that makes them "accidentally" trundle into female changing rooms and ministerial meetings.
That'd rule.

Since I bought a motorised indoor chair that can go up and down too, my friends have taken great delight in calling me Davros ... b*****ds!

Since I bought a motorised indoor chair that can go up and down too, my friends have taken great delight in calling me Davros ... b*****ds!

Excellent. Reminds me of a night out with some friends ...
"Anyone know where the disabled toilet is?"
"Wouldn't you prefer one that works?"

In fact there was a dude in one of the Dalek films in a wheel chair, he died.
