Things that crack me up, #23

From Flickr contributor giginger
Visual description: A window display with five different wheelchairs among green and warm reddish-orange curtains. A big sign reads "Don't you wish your wheelchair was HOT like me?" and three smaller signs by different wheelchairs reading "Don't cha?" "Don't cha?" "Don't cha?"

Apologies for pinching this picture and not crediting it to your blog.
I shall write 100 lines 'though must not steel pictures without saying thanks'
Take care,
Philip
What is it with you and wheelchair porn? ;-)
Philip: No worries for me. It's the Flickr credit for the photographer.
Ook!: I just can't help myself.
'What is it with you and wheelchair porn? ;-)'
Are there 'specialist' websites for this sort of thing??? - LOL
Philip goes off to google with a big grin on his face.
Philip, I believe Ook! is talking about this post of mine. ;)
Yeah, I don't recognize the brand but I think of the Colours in Motion site which sort of implies that if I get their chair, I too can do backflips or sit around with a sexy tattoo. Yes, let's bring the world of car advertising to chairs: when can we see someone in a chair alone on the road going down switchbacks at high speed set to classical music
Back in the '80s ads for wheelchairs and other medical equipment were much different, mostly implying they would help you with your misfortunes -- or help your caregivers care for you. There are certainly problems with creating this ad-glitzed hierarchy of glamorous disabled folks, but I have to say that I prefer ads that cater to disabled people and don't treat us as if we have no lives or adventures at all.

i'd like to hear the whole song/video done that way actually...
