The husband's step-mother was posting about those purple parking spots for disabled vets, and she being all "rawr am southern belle" (shes not. I'll eat my real pearls if she ever gets admitted to high society) And he politely pointed out why it was dumb, then asked me about it, cause my grandparents (and myself) worked a lot with vets, and I straight up told him that most vets would find something like shameful and would have too much pride to actually use that, ESPECIALLY if they are still able-bodied, because they would believe that it should go to someone who needs the space MORE.

Much butthurt was involved on her part, and she made this WHOLE thing about how her father is a disabled vet. I told the husband that there is a VERY good chance that her father would NEVER use such a spot because its like a giant dick waving flag of "look at me", and that the step-mother would be FAR more likely to use said spot and claim it was for her father.

Basically, today the husband v/CttCJim and I were assholes to everyone
