Entitlement snarks.

Dear Helpless Disabled Person:

I’m sorry that you can’t get the book we’re supposed to be reading as a group. However, I do not have any idea what you expect us to do about it. It’s available in some form that will not cost you money. It’s totally not our fault you can’t use the resources you need to gain it. Maybe if you returned some books to the library, you wouldn’t have this problem.

Not a whole lot of love,
Me

Dear Local Library for the Blind:

I check out special equipment so that I can listen to cassette books produced by the National Library Service for the Blind. When I request this equipment, the least you can do is send me a machine that works. As it is, now I have two shoddy tape recorders I’ll be sending back to you for repairs. Which will severely limit my ability to read, and that will severely piss me off. The least you could have done was quality control checked your equipment before you sent it out to me so we wouldn’t have this problem.

Much hate,
Someone who should not have to resort to buying overpriced access technology just so she can read a goddamned book.

Joining to crosspost this there.
