CDIH

I fear slipping on the ice also, not so much falling but slipping and causing my knee to pop out - the pain is impossible to describe.

Couple that with my back problems, and I'm a walking mess in this weather. This is why I need to move to Miami.

well thats why I fear it as well, I have torn both knees and have a bad back...

Plus people will laugh at me and point

people point and laugh at me all day long - you get used to it.

but yeah, the knee and back pain is awful - I don't wish that on anyone.

but really most of us would wait until we're not in front of you to really start the hardcore mockery.

i would certainly wait until he was far enough way to not hear my mocking. its the polite thing to do.

and the safe thing to do for a couple wussy wussies wusses.

i called you bud and expressed worry in my first post. what else do you want?

I've always been weary of escalators. I wouldn't say it's a fear, since I use them instead of stairs whenever possible. But every time I go down one it's always in the back of my head how fucked I'd be if I fell. Falling down a flight of stairs is one thing, but we're talking about stainless fucking steel!

did you ever use one at the mall, and then stop it with your foot - thus scaring everyone else behind you? good times!

I used to have nightmares that the escalator would rip my legs off from under me.

that kid is back on the escalator!
