What's better than writing a shit joke on Reddit?

Winning gold at the Paralympics.

You should delete this because it’s repulsive AND unfunny.

That’s not really a joke, it’s a super obvious fact,

also friendly advice there’s some stuff that u just don’t mess around with (disabled folks are usually close to the top of that list)

I disagree. The paralympics get recognition and praise. I don't ever get praised for walking down the street "correctly"

There was an even worse version of this joke. Instead of Paralympics it was Special Olympics. I’ll let you fill in the rest…

Iv never met the bloke but I feel like Dylan Alcott is a truely rare example of how good a human really can be with the right attitude towards the cards they have been dealt, with the life experience I have had I think maybe I would trade my ability to walk for his work ethic and attitude towards life.

I always thought that joke worked better with silver instead of gold, because of misdirection.

I mean, obviously walking is better than winning gold at the Paralympics. Obviously. By replacing it with "What's better than winning silver?", it makes you think for a split second that maybe winning gold would be great.

But nope. Still going with the ability to walk.

I wish I knew who you were in real life so i could just follow you around every time you walk by and just start a slow clap, or maybe like one of those golf cheers after a putt, the ones that get louder and louder as the ball gets closer to the hole…
