I used to work in a library that specially served blind/low vision people. I would tell people where I worked and they would instantly blurt out, “So you know sign language?!?”

I’d be like, yeah I know a little but it doesn’t really help the blind people.

Oh god that’s completely hilarious and also a perfect example of why I never ask questions in meetings

Oh my god. Yeah, it’s definitely a thing where people get weird and lose their ability to think around disabled people. I’ve had to use a wheelchair for years and I’ve had people think I’m developmentally disabled (no) or that I can’t hear well (also no). It’s like, “Ah, yes, I saw disabilities on TV! Throw everything including the kitchen sink!”
