So I'm at the SICM.

And there's a group of adults there in wheelchairs. I'm busy keeping Ana from running directly in anybody's path (!!!!!!!!!!!!!), when I hear one person (not in a wheelchair) talking to another...

"Remember, she understands everything you say."

Well, that's nice....

"...and she's not as stupid as she looks"

?

What? If you just finished saying somebody understands everything you say, can you take a moment to consider she may just understand when she's being insulted? And I'm guessing the woman was right there, too, though I wasn't paying enough attention. I mean, I don't see any way that sentence isn't insulting.
