Good for your wife. My mother was blind in one eye from age three, and the minute we kids got our drivers licenses, we refused to ride anywhere with her. No depth perception.

I am also blind in one eye.
No problems driving or with depth perception.
There are millions of one-eyed drivers.

Everyone is an individual, my wife just happens to have compensated well (also legally blind in L eye since childhood). I have no problem letting her drive

In the mean time, you could just pay attention, and drive carefully.

I got a chuckle from it. We all need a bit of levity around here.

That was cruel and uncalled for.

Well, I think some people judge levity/humor/sarcasm based on their own degree of "wokeness" Personally, I consider the only acceptable level of "wokeness" to be quite a bit less than zero.
Really, God forbid you offend anybody for any reason regardless of what you see. Illegal aliens are just that, NOT "UNDOCUMENTED". The bullpen is where relief pitchers warm up NOT "THE ARM BARN". Something that is grammatically gibberish should be pointed out. And why do universities need "free speech zones" in a country founded on free speech? Yet there are people, even on this site, that defend this type of nonsense.
For my part, if I post something in gibberish, or something completely factually off base, please call me out on it, I won't consider it a "joke at my expense" (But you better be correct, since you know what they say about payback)

It’s belittling. Giving it another name doesn’t change the fact.

Humor
Levity
Sarcasm
Joke

Try those for a few other names.
Perfect example of what I stated in post #39, thank you.

You gotta have a thick skin to participate in social media. Believe me. I know!!!!! Just let it roll off your back like water rolls off a duck.

HaHa! Just what I wanted to imply but you did it much nicer than I would have. I'm amazed by how many posters must not ever re-read their posts before submitting them.

Talk about gibberish? What do “wokeness” and Illegal aliens have to do with mocking another person’s post for your own amusement?
