I identify as electrical (pronouns: zip/zap).

I was actually raised by a single umpire and everyone just assumed I would turn out umpire too but I'm actually electrical

bampop@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 1y

Nobody is born an umpire, you become an umpire if you get bitten by one but umpire parents always have electrical babies

What are they implying with that wide-ass door for women?

argh_another_username@lemmy.ca · 21 pts · 1y

I don’t like yo mama jokes. I just think about them.

But seriously, strollers and wheelchairs.

It’s probably for ADA compliance

Hux@lemmy.ml · 20 pts · 1y

If it were for ADA compliance, the ā€œUmpiresā€ door would need a Braille sign.

Compliance with their wide asses!

I like wide asses and I cannot lie

wide-ass

They're probably implying exactly this.

A_Union_of_Kobolds@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 1y

Maybe for strollers?

Sadbutdru@sopuli.xyz · 3 pts · 1y (3 replies)

Also the only one with a key pad!?

abfarid@startrek.website · 1 pts · 1y (2 replies)

I can't extract a yo momma joke from that though

Iapetus@slrpnk.net · 1 pts · 1y (1 reply)

If yo mama has wheels, she needs wheelchair access toilets.

abfarid@startrek.website · 1 pts · 1y

Nah, she would've been a bike.

Electricians and umpires don't require accessible doors.

gasp there's a transformer in the electrical bathroom!

I’m tired of umpires being discriminated against! They are not ā€œseparate but equalā€. I say we treat them like the humans they pretend to be.

wise_pancake@lemmy.ca · 9 pts · 1y

I’ll stop discriminating against umpires when they learn to see.

21Cabbage@lemmynsfw.com · 12 pts · 1y

Decidedly identifying as electrical if that's an option.

How do you become an umpire? Do you become one when you're bitten by another umpire?

theneverfox@pawb.social · 1 pts · 1y

You get hit by a baseball. Then you're cursed with an overwhelming fear of getting hit by baseballs

This compels you to get protective equipment and hide behind a guy (who's entire job is to catch the ball if it makes it past the batter)

Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 1y

They should have the umpires sign in braille

random_character_a@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 1y

There is a Finnish hick t-shirt text "Don't touch electrician when you are wet".

This is because electrician in Finnish is "sƤhkƶmies" and is literally translated "electric man"

Are umpires electric?
