I don't have Epilepsy, so I was just curious how you that do, feel about this ad.

It came from this website:

LOL....I thought it was hilarious! I should get one....

[PurpleAngel]

I personally am not offended, but then again I do not have Epilepsy, my daughter does.

It's one of those things that isn't gonna sit well for some people, and for others is perfectly fine.

HA HA HA! I want one! Seriously, it doesn't bother me. Anything that gets people thinking and talking about epilepsy is a good thing, I think.

But then, making jokes of a situation has always been my way of coping.

I Like it.. I dont take it in a bad way. I would love to wear one. It is me!

[brain]

Seen it before! And I've seen others!
And some of them are pretty bad!
I almost bought that shirt some time
ago - you ought to check out the one
going out there in Cafe Press ... whoa!

But I'm not offended by it.

I like this one better:

[Birdbomb]

D'OH!

[TeeTees]

You know what ?.....I'm not sure.

Personally I don't mind it, as it doesn't offend me - I've gone through worst pee taking than that in the past.

I'm just wondering if it's something that might make kids think it's 'okay to have a laugh' about E ?

Hmmm....on the fence with this one.

...it's one of the stoopidest lookin' shirts I've seen in a long time...worn by a kid who looks like he's about to cry?

It doesn't really matter what that shirt says to me!

[BuckeyeFan]

Not for me. I definitely wouldn't wear it. The more I thought about it the less I liked it.

Wouldn't get mad at another E patient for wearing it, because that may be there way of dealing with it. If a little laughter helps someone deal with it, that is great.

I just think there are better ways to promote awareness that won't set you up for someone else laughing at you.

[Bernard]

D'OH!

[ashmstng]

I do want to say I rather wear Bernards t-shirt better.

I just think there are better ways to promote awareness that won't set you up for someone else laughing at you.

Buckeye I never thought about it the way you put it. I just thought about as I accept myself as for me. I do with you though on that.
