Today, I was waiting in line to use the bathroom. I complained to the guy next to me about how long the lady was taking. I kept making jokes about it, but he never seemed to laugh. Finally, the door opened and out came a lady in a wheelchair. The guy next to me was her husband. FML

Maybe next time you won't be such a twatdangler, and wait patiently.

"How long can she stay in there for? Is she handi-crapped or something? I've seen constipated turtles push one out faster than this bitch! Haul ass, woman!" You're not funny and you should mind your business like that OP with the van or the iPad

Why wouldn't you take the hint after the first failed joke?

Haven't you ever heard the saying "If you don't have anything good to say then don't say anything at all."

Wow, ain't that a big f*ck you to your face. Nice job OP.

I'd have punched you so hard that you'd need a wheel chair yourself for saying crap like that if it'd been my wife...Ass-hat of the year award goes to you.

If there was a disabled peoples icon on the stall door, OP deserverd it. Else (s)he was just unlucky.

I honestly give this a your life sucks vote. Because why on Earth would the husband not take a moment to say anything? Especially since it was his wife in there. Around here we make jokes on anyone taking too long if we're waiting for a restroom. It's all in good humor, and how was she supposed to know the woman was in a wheelchair?

That sucks. The guy could've politely pointed out that it was a handicapped restroom to tip you off, or said something to change the subject. A ton of restrooms are handicap-appropriate; how were you supposed to know she had a wheelchair? FYL.

Meh it's a thing that we all do. Waiting in a line brings about odd conversation. FYL op

You completely deserve this. First of all, why did you think he was waiting in line for the women's restroom? Everyone knows the men's restroom hardly ever has a long line, and if a man has to pee badly enough, they can just pee outside. Second, you didn't get that awkward "Gee, this is awkward, I should shut up" feeling when you made the first joke and he didn't laugh or smile? You didn't see him frown by the second joke? Third, it's just plain rude to make a "joke" about someone taking awhile in the bathroom. It's none of your business why they're in there for so long, they could be terribly constipated or nauseated. Doors aren't that thick, and she probably heard you.

I find allot of people with the attitude like OP. I have had muscular dystrophy from birth. I can walk short distances but if my husband and I plan to do more than go out to eat, I have my manual wheelchair or my scooter. The toilets in handicap stalls are usually taller, making it easy for me to get up. I can barely get up off of the smaller toilets. If I am walking and the toilets are all the same height I will go into a regular stall for the very reason that someone who actually needs it may come in. There have been quite a few times when I have had to wait for the handicap stall, and when the person walks out they suddenly get this guilty look as they realize they could have used a regular stall since they had no difficulty walking, getting up, etc. I have also shocked the hell out of a mom who was being impatient and yelling at me to hurry up. I ended up getting an apology from one of them. The ones I especially love are the preppy, snobbish girls using the family bathroom. One of the malls we go to on occasion doesn't have any way for me to get in and out on my own, so my fiance has to help me. The only place he can do that and not get into trouble is in a family bathroom. I don't mind waiting for a handicap stall but it does amaze me how many people choose to not consider anyone but themselves.

Okay, husband and fiance are the same guy. We've been together for 7 years so he basically is my husband. My brain decided to not keep consistency. Forgive me!
