Still not convinved about the extreme coolness of being spastic? Well, that's ok. I mean, after all those years of seeing sad spastic dudes in public it's hard to believe. That's why I'll give you some more examples. They are (of course) all true and authentic SpastStories!

• People fear the unknown. So you can make shop attendants very nervous by typing your PIN right only at the third attempt. This is not mean, it's just a way of educating people to deal with the unknown.
• You always have a chair with you. Even in crowded trains, when everybody has to stand, you have your own, comfortable, custom made chair...
• If you're really bored, you can irritate the hell out of people by trying to tell them some crap which is absolutely of no importance whatsoever. During this process you speak very slurry, so you have to repeat yourself at least a dozen times. After they finally understand what you say, they ask you to repeat it one more time, because they just can't believe you went through so much trouble just to tell them so much crap.
• Women who brag about their slender body can be easily convinced otherwise by having them sit in your chair for a while. Because I'm not fat at all and my chair is custom made for my body, almost all women (broader hips) have trouble fitting in. They immediately think they're fat and you're saved from the usual "how dare you" crap.
• Your line of sight is at 'bottom' height. Draw your own conclusions....
• I drink beer with a straw. This is very economic, because you get more fun for the same amount of beer. Also, you don't have to walk as much as other people, so you look a lot less pissed.
• Go to a mall. Put some friend on your lap and let her drive your wheelchair. The only condition: she can't drive. Fun guaranteed!
• Imagine you are driving through a very crowded mall. Most of the time people will walk on the right side of the path. You don't want to drive in the middle of this stream, because it moves at a terribly slow speed of about 2.7 km/h. It's way better to drive on the left side of the path, where people can see you coming and will hopefully clear a path. And when they don't clear a path, you can make some extra spastic moves. Normally this behaviour is considered rude, but when you're spastic, you get away with it. Be aware that you have to be very skilled in driving wheelchairs in order to achieve the right effect. The trick is to never hit someone and still making people believe that they're better off by going out of your way.
