Pathetic.

Thanks Janet

I don’t know what’s more pathetic here, the woman in the news story or the news story itself. It’s like eating a shit sandwich sprinkled with pee on top.

Janice Eberle of Lynnfield was ticketed $300 for parking her Mercedes SUV in a BJ’s handicapped spot in Danvers. “I don’t deny that it was wrong, but under the circumstances, the torrential rains, everything, the ticket I couldn’t even read it was soaked within two seconds,” said Eberle.

Oh, so rain should negate the validity of handicap spots now? Is there something in the “everything” category that we don’t know about that could clear this up? Perhaps her severed legs?

Eberle said that the fine is too high, and she has decided to sue the town of Danvers after the parking clerk refused to dismiss her ticket. Although she is not technically handicapped, she said that she was disabled that day from recent shoulder surgery. “At the time I was still in a full sling, I was still on medication and I have a huge scar,” Eberle said.

Awwwwww, duz pore baby have a wittle booboo? Come on lady!! You might not be technically retarded, but your brain activity is hampered. First it was the rain, then it was the arm, and hang on a minute… wtf are you doing driving while on pain killers? Isn’t that illegal? People like Janice Eberle are why we need to start having people pass IQ tests to get into a supermarket.

But watch the video on the site, it’s remarkable. Go to 0:58. The news anchor, Janet Wu, tries to convince us that she did some investigative reporting by pointing to a sign on the wall that says, “parking clerk”, as if we would be lost in space otherwise. Maybe the news report was so Janice Eberle could follow along. What a piece of shit story.
