Injuries making it difficult to walk sometimes result in people using tools to assist them in getting around after the injury
I was contemplating saying something about this as well, thank you.
My wife tore something in her leg a couple years ago rendering her unable to walk but she could stand for brief periods of time: this picture could very easily have been about her on a shopping trip. This only lasted for about four months before she was able to walk again (mostly hobbling until a few weeks after that) but there are people who have sustained permanent injuries that just cannot stand for any extended period of time. It's kind of shitty behavior to make a joke about someone without knowing the full story. There's enough genuinely absurd and humorous things in the world without having to make any assumptions.
