[The graphic consists of a bingo card with the words “But You Don't Look Disabled!” at the top. The card consists of five rows of five boxes each. The text in each row consists of the following, from left to right:
Row 1: Well, that's the *main* thing.
And that's relevant WHY?
Before we continue, I'll need to see your medical credentials.
Can I borrow your x-ray vision goggles, please?
Seriously. NOT a compliment.
Row 2: Shhh! You'll blow my cover!
I'm not. I just play a disabled person on TV.
Awww. You're just trying to make me feel WORSE.
I'd love to agree, but I don't want to be wrong.
You really need to expand your definitions.
Row 3: Bwahahaha!
And you don't look completely tactless!
WTF? Free space WTF?
Thank you, but that is NOT helpful.
What does disabled look like?
Row 4: You're practicing medicine? Right here?
Well, I am. And things look like themselves, right?
I'm sorry. Do I know you?
Didn't you know? I'm just faking it for the social status.
And you don't look like a doctor?
Row 5: I'm actually an alien. But you can't see that, either.
*Silence*
What do you imagine I think of you right now?
And you don't look ignorant. But here we are!
I must have forgotten to wear my black triangle.
