Ticklishness as a disability

[renny]

I was thinking about this today, and I thought I'd ask everyone here. On the Converted to Tickling tape from Bleu Productions there is a title card between sequences saying that about 4,000 people in America are legally disabled and unable to work because they are "too ticklish" Do you think this is even possible, and if it is, could one of this forum's illustrious memembers be among that number? 😉

Man, I'm kinda disapointed in myself. Not even in my creative sarcasm can I think of a job that might require a person not to be ticklish...I'll be up for hours thinking about this one... 😕

too ticklish

That has got to be joke. Anyone who claims to be too ticklish to work needs to be tickled for revenge.

OH Puhleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeze!

What occupation could people have that being ticklish could even remotly be a hinderance let alone a disability!!!??? IF this even has a shread of truth in it....ONLY in America... could such a lameass claim be made in an attempt to MAKE money for NOTHING.
Greeeeeeeeeeeeeed, the root of all evil.

Pure crap!!! I'm as ticklish as anyone, and I'm holding down two jobs. I don't even get a good parking space! Seriously, listing ticklishness as a disability is not only a scam, but it's a huge insult to people who have real disabilities, and have to struggle with them everyday. Hope that didn't sound too preachy!

Occupations?

How about...

(1) Body paint model for a trendy New York ad agency.

(2) Paid massage recipient at the School of Holistic Healing.

(3) Renaissance Fair actress at the "Town Square Stocks" exhibit.

I mean, use a little IMAGINATION folks! 😛

Never too ticklish

They should be made to be tickling models. They can never be to ticklish. It is part of the job so laugh it up.

LOL I wish the BC government was that eager to hand out money. I've got fibromyalgia that keeps me crippled (if I don't smoke a certain herb .),but the government will not give me any support for that. The thing is...even if ticklishness could keep people from performing certain occupations (magicians assistant, for example hehe) there is no reason they could not find some other job that didn't require anyone to touch them at all. Let's face it..the majority of jobs don't ask you to have someone's hands on your body.

I actually posted a thread about this last year...got the info from my "weekly World News" Daily calendar! I want the job interviewing these people to make sure they are REALLY too ticklish !

On a side note...BONDO?!?! BONDOFLOCKE?!?!?! I haven't heard from you in a month of sundays! I trust you're still out there getting those classic real life tickle pictures?!?!

Good to see you sir!
