Being Blind

Blind people on the subway terrify me. Like most people, I share that “who’s going to help them” awkwardness as they slowly try to enter and exit the train. And I feel terrible for feeling this way, but I can’t help it. Second, I also feel like they going to just fucking walk right off the edge of the platform and fall onto the tracks, without realizing what they’re doing. I mean, this could happen - they can’t see shit!

If I ever become blind, I would just sit home all day and smoke pot, and be the most lazy person in the world. Sure, being blind sucks, but it’s an excuse to do absolutely nothing for anyone but yourself for the rest of your life. And sure, that’s pretty much what I’m doing now, but I bet it’d be a lot more acceptable if I couldn’t see.
