When I first saw Wilt properly (I'd seen him on commercials and all, but other than this was the first time) I looked at his handicapped-ness and I didn't think anything of it. I felt sorry for him a week or so later, though, while reading the notes for "Blooooooo" because that episode hadn't aired in the UK yet and I'm a spolier-muffin-of-doom. Anyway I was reading the notes, and then somebody had written about how Wilt is blind in his left eye, because his googley eye could be seen in the closet... I actually thought he could see through it at the time, 'cos I've all been a bit of a retard... But anyway I was like "Aww... He's half blind..."
I'd never really thought about his arm. I mean, sure, I thought about it, wondered what happened to it, but, I dunno, I'm always like this. I don't normally feel sorry for people sat in wheels chairs or on crutches, because I know that they normally don't WANT to be sympathized with. They're still people and they wanna get on with their lives, with out people buzzing round them, asking them what had happened and offering to do stuff for them which they're quite capable of doing theirselves...
