Poor Tim :(



I saw the most depressing thing the other day. I was driving behind a mivi van, which of course was filled with beyond stupid bumper stickers. I've said it before, and I'll say it again, no one cares that your kid ate pizza with their school principal. I bet the principal's kids eat meals with them all the time. Does that mean they should be canonized? Anyway, amidst all the stupid stickers was a particularly disturbing sight. The family stick-figure bumper sticker. We've all seen them. They are these little stick figures that are personalized to show that particular family member's hobby or trade. Mommy with the garden hose. Daddy with his fireman gear on. Ashley with her cheerleading pom poms. The stick-figure family I saw had all of these typical kinds of traits — expect for Tim. No, Tim did not have a soccer ball, or a guitar, or any other kind of thing a young boy plays with. Instead, Tim just had a cane.

A cane.

So, not only is poor Tim handicapped, but his family is using their mini van to reiterate that fact. It's hard to believe that Tim does nothing else but be handicapped. I mean, if he really doesn't do ANYTHING else, then make it up! Geez, even the the stick-figure family dog had a toy.
