I think she needs to out more thought into that. Easy for you to say. I can't say I speak from experience but I imagine that outing anything into anything is rather tricky.

No disrespect to Jennifer Lee Rossman but ... her post implies that ... werewolves would have no reason to be out past five. When actually they would have every reason. If Daniel Lawson had said 'For the safety of the public, people with genuine disabilities should only be out during business hours', that would be different. I should get back on Twitter. I'll disrespect Jenifer Lee Rosman: werewolves makes no sense. It's difficult to think of a mythological creature that can only come out during the day . . . reverse vampires . . . horses that are really nice . . . I dunno? I think she needs to out more thought into that. I think what she meant to say was that: Even if there were werewolves masquerading as disabled people, disabled people should still have the right to park past 5. I don't like the post at all. When you look at it you think it makes sense. But then it unravels. And takes your mind with it.

When you look at it you think it makes sense. But then it unravels. And takes your mind with it. She's not talking about anyone masquerading as anything, she's pointing out that disabled people aren't only in need of designated parking during daylight hours because they would become unable to drive a car once the sun has gone down (cf. hairy hands). It's true that according to most lore the conditions that must be met to turn people into werewolves include a full moon as well but I'm willing to cut her some slack against that moron Lawson.

Okay. Mm-hm. Well, that took an unexpected turn. Didn't expect that one, either. I will never look at mozzarella the same way.

...excessive hand washing. In a bison presumably, because you can't wash your hands in a buffalo.

It's true that according to most lore the conditions that must be met to turn people into werewolves include a full moon as well but I'm willing to cut her some slack against that moron Lawson. It makes my head swim. Maybe I’m not thinking straight. Werewolves don’t need daylight hours at all. They need night-time hours if anything. Well really they need both. Perhaps she should have said ‘Disabled people are like werewolves, in the sense that they also need parking during daylight and night-time hours.’ It makes no sense. I’m mentally trying to reconcile the spirit of her post with the actual fact of what she’s saying. And tying myself in knots in the process. Or I’m unraveling. I don’t know. It’s some Gordian hoodoo she’s brought into play.

So maybe she’s saying werewolves can’t drive, when they turn into wolves?
Ok. It’s good to get this worked out. I mean to my mind a werewolf is bipedal. Like Teenwolf. But I guess there is the … ‘becoming an actual wolf’ version….

One more thing …
If my disability was ‘turns into a wolf at 5pm’ then I would still need a disabled parking badge for my car, so my designated driver could get me where I needed to be.
The werewolf reference just doesn’t help.

Maybe it's a statement carefully designed to be precisely as nonsensical as the post to which it's replying

Yes it is. It also differs from Lunacy which is a disorder based on lunar cycles. Contrary to belief lycanthropy does not involve the moon. I used to be a werewolf once but I'm alright noooowww!

The child is at a performance of Matilda with the Brownies. It's just coming out now so I'm not going to get a drink for at least another 30mins. Ffs.

I meant to say, the camera club chat went well. Turns out that one of the club members are going to photograph racing cars at the weekend, so my chat should come in handy for him.

Scooters, the foot-propelled ones that kids and immature adults ride on: were they ever named something else in Britain?
