"I speak slow enough for the both of us." I died laughing. Lol. Love her attitude.
Sydney VT she’s a comedian now she’s awesome
@@lilgem61490 where do I find her?
@@babysnoops14 Search for Rosie Jones here on youtube. She's hilarious.
I loved her joke about the shoulder pads 😂
So exactly what is so funny
"Poor you"
"Pour me a drink!"
That guy is class 😂😂
michellel9595
He is awesome

Yoo Jin Let me guess, you have a wonderful personality.
He is awesome
"Lube up and let's see." That is the BEST responce I've ever heard to that question.
VirgoGoddess90 IS THAT WHAT HE SAID? LOL!!
SuperWhoLocked Browncoat yup
I should start using that one! so far my reply has always only been "can you?" (I don't have CP, I have Spina Bifida)
Just like trans people. When everyone asks if they have had their bottom suergery (genital operation), the best answer is:
Oh! I didn't know you wanted to sleep with me! I thought we were just friends. Well, this is awkward...
The poor other guy that was with him 😂😂😂. But he was hilarious.
The woman with the brown hair and floral shirt was so sweet. She answered everything calmly and joked about herself too. I wish we had nicer people like that in the US
nicole m she’s actually a stand up comedian
She's done all sorts- BIg Fat Quiz Of The Year, 9/10 CDCD, performed at the Albert Hall and is hilarious to boot. Her name's Rosie Jones, look her up
'poor you' 'pour me a drink!' dead
That guy is the come-back king!
Jess He's an absolute winner, wish I had him as a friend
He's a dick.
Oh yeah, and he's me. Fancy checking my channel out?
nice channel tho
He's so sassy! I love him :')
I have been living a truly ignorant life. I have never met anyone with cp like these people. I honestly thought that when you had cerebral palsy that you were stuck in a wheel chair with little to no ability to speak or perform simple tasks(this was the case for the two people I've ever met).I'm sorry if I'm offending anyone. I honestly had no idea it was a broader spectrum. Thank you for making me a little less ignorant!
There is all different forms of cerebral palsy. It can affect speech, limbs, movement etc. It doesn't effect the intelligence :) Many are very intelligent people.
CP, almost always leaves the brain fully intact! It's a disorder only caused by accidents when a baby is born. They're not dumb, they just have issues with movement, speech, and posture. Since people with more severe cases tend to not talk at all & twitch rather than move people often assume they're stupid, but given the right tools they will be able to converse like a normal person!
It is a really interesting disorder. If you want to learn more about CP theres an AMAZING comedian/activist named Maysoon Zayid. She has a Ted Talk called "I got 99 problems and palsy is just one". Shes awesome and was what opened my eyes to this unique and diverse disorder. I strongly suggest you watch it, its only 15 minutes and shes so funny.
I honestly thought the same thing. I recently got a job working with people with disabilities and we have 2 people with CP and one is non-verbal. Can't move at all but he is so smart. He communicates with his eyes. He always knows every answer way before anyone else. Their brain is so very much there. I felt bad for living this long and not knowing. But I want to blame schools, they don't educate us on disabilities in school. They really should.
Cristina Yeah, basically it depends, the brain has so many parts, and each one is the responsible of certain area. I think that the diseases that have people on wheelchairs is more related to the spine rather that the brain.
Samantha Ortega not always my son is in a wheelchair because of muscular dystrophy a neurological condition
The woman with the brunette hair and pink top was so bubbly I loved her ! 😭 " I speak slow enough for the both of us" Lol !!
I have never spoken to someone with CP or a speech impediment and I just realized that I REALLY need to unlearn these biases that I and a lot of people have thinking that someone is mentally slow because of how they talk.
I apologize.
This video was great! I hope everyone is learning something from this!
ItsRobinWhoTalks this is awesome! I have CP and have difficulty saying my 's' sounds correctly so people often assume I'm mentally impaired. It can be very frustrating because I encounter it a lot.
CP may affect some physical stuff, but not in any way the mind works!
+Robin Ruby I've had CP(Cerebral Palsy) all my life(31 years) and it's a stuggle. And i do have a bit of a speech problem with a word the and the letter D afterwards
"is it contagious?"
"yes you should get away from me this instant!"
Kaspia your profile is true beauty
Right! Or “no, is your stupidity contagious?”
'Assume somebody with CP is mentally capable unless they tell you they vote UKIP' I'm dying
Well, if you fancy dying a bit more he does have a YT channel... :p
Lucy Alpin this guy is so hillarious :D he has a great attitude.
he should look into a career in comedy. He had some awesome one liners
UKIP is the right choice. Can't Barrage the Farage
"My shoulder got stuck. It was the 80s and I was wearing shoulder pads." HA
I walk with a limp because I have a small form of CP and people always stop me when I'm walking like "Are you okay? You hurt your leg?" Like seriously, I'm fine and I know they mean the best but it's annoying af since it doesn't just happen once. Everybody wanting to save you gets really irritating when you don't need saving.
I can't believe how rude people can be when they THINK they're being helpful.
Promise Mitchell I have a severe limp and I just got triggered.
Me too, omygod!
Do you walk with a brace too? -a fellow cp citizen who has the exact same symptoms
AJ Plays Games 8907 tbh my bones have become deformed because of the muscular issues
My adopted sister has really bad cerebral palsy because as an infant in El Salvador, her dad beat her and the orphanage did nothing to heal her. She had too long to be left to her injuries to reach the capability and cognitive thinking that these people in the video have. She will forever be in the mentality of a four year old with little mobility. But she adores classical music, having books read to her, and talking to absolutely anyone she sees. She's made entirely of love for everyone.
I'm so sorry that she went through that and I'm so thankful that a loving family adopted her.
All that matters is life quality. If she is happy it doesn't matter she can't move much or that her intellectual ability is compromised. People are just so fixed on "normalizing" everyone, and if they don't behave "normally" they pitty them, as if their life is a failure. No, if they are happy in life I envy them. I'm not happy.
You sound like a good sister
Dude with the 'Enabled not disabled' shirt is hot as hell :3
CaptainBlunt ikr ahah lol x
Yes, he fooiiiiine!
Ryan Raghoo, hes a paralympic long jumper, n is v pretty :)
name??
zabia rayne Ryan Raghoo
The girls with the long brown hair wearing a red floral top is hilarious: "My shoulder got stuck when l was coming out. Well it was the 80s and l was wearing shoulder pads"-ha ha! I think she should consider a career in 'stand up' comedy!
I laughed at that.
She is really funny!
She is great.
She is a comedian!
WHAT IS HER NAME
I have mild cp and my sister in law will not let me around my nieces with out her near by because her words "I'll give them cp" I like fake sneezing on her and say I'm giving it to her
Linzi Lipinski wtf. Cp isn't contagious. It's mostly diagnosed near birth or due to other circumstances that only affect that one individual.
I think you need a new sister in law, honestly.
I would be pissed off if someone talked about my siblings that way.
Your sister in law is stupid.
@@glorifieddgI learnt the hard way the family members can be more cruel than strangers and that you can pick your friends but never your family.
I once had a teacher yell at me for dragging my feet and then I yelled to her "I have CP ma'am' she thought I lied and told me not to joke about a condition I DONT have. If only she knew I DO have CP. The irony of wearing a cast the next year for my CP. How good it felt to rub it in her face.
I waddle while my knees support each other. I have to drag my leg when I have a hip contracture it is excruciating
'If not the milkman's been really busy while I've been at work' dead😂
I love these videos. they help people to see what it's like for other people and it teaches people to have better manners lol. I'd like to see one of these about Tourette's syndrome (I have it myself), that would be interesting.
I have it too. Don't worry, it gets better with time.
:)
Inky likes to draw i have Tourette's also!!
eyyy there's a bunch of people here who actually kind of understand me
I also love these video's! But I don't think all people have bad manners who ask some kind of questions. For example, I wouldn't know what's appropriate to ask or say to some people. I would really like to ask them some questions, because I don't know much about some diseases and stuff, but of course I would never want to be rude to them. But I think I would end up asking nothing, because I think these people get asked questions all the time. I really like these video's so I can see how it's from their perspective :)
My father has CP and I'm going to show him this as soon as I can. This is amazing.
I walked into a bar once with friends and was cut off before my first drink, because "I observed you walking in, Sir." - Sheesh! I am so glad to have found these videos. I am not alone. 💯
The guy with beard in the grey shirt and the guy with glasses in the black suit jacket are bloody handsome
Mark Dogsby ikr
Mark Dogsby the girl next to him is too
Kawsar H. Shire actually half Indian Carribean
Kawsar H. Shire but thank you
Hell yes
I don't want to sound offensive but subtitles are really necessary for non-native English speakers. I can't understand people speaking in a foreign language with a strong accent or aphasia :-|
Papera Di Gomma There are subtitles, just select the CC option.
Herman Sangha They recently added it, it wasn't available when I posted my comment :)
Papera Di Gomma Too bad it wasn't placed properly in some areas, making it difficult to follow.
I agree. Once you start talking to someone it's easier to figure out what they are saying. But adding an accent makes it even harder.
Papera Di Gomma I wouldn't worry about it, I've known my sister all my life and sometimes I don't catch the odd word.
1:38 That guy looks so done
brilliantly done. As someone with CP - specifically right sided hemiplegia I have had more of these patronizing one liners said to me than I am comfortable with and I think the more people that see this video the easier our lives will become.
I have cerebral palsy myself and it's nice to see there is more awareness about it also how they represented the the different types of people with CP within the video
Kai Donnelly-Nesbitt I have cerebral palsy as well, and this video is amazing
Kai Donnelly-Nesbitt I have cp also and is video is so accurate it's outstanding
Hello my fellow cp citizens!
AJ Plays Games 8907 hello
AJ Plays Games 8907 Hey
"assume someone with cp is mentally capable until they tell you they vote UKIP" LAD
Who Curr what's UKIP
That dude is so sassy I’m just like Dude
Abby Liu | UKIP is a political party in the UK that is anti European Union, pro Brexit and, unfortunately, attracts a lot of press for the actions of the nationalistic, racist and poor behaviour from its members... His joke was so spot on! Lol
this video is over a year old, but i love it! my brother has cp, it only affects his legs, but growing up was hard for him. everyone would stare and ask whats wrong, and im super proud of him because hes super positive and doesnt let any of the rude comments affect him. i look up to him so much because of this, and hes probably my favorite person ever.
So thankful and relieved to hear these kinds of responses as a CP... I love your wits!
They are so cool and funny!!! He said "poor me? pour me a drink!" 😂😂😂
Ironically I think subtitles would have been more than appropriate at points during this video
definitely
Biggars in Paris Yes! it is kind of hard to understand a few words
Biggars in Paris you can turn them on:) if you're on a phone just go to the top and you'll see 3 vertical dots..click on that and where it says cc, just turn on the subtitles
Zoe Terry thank you!! I'm glad I got to know what everyone was saying the 2nd time I watched it.
it is available
I love this channel and this series so much because it truly opens people's eyes and shows that just because an individual has a disability or strays away from what society sees as "normal," they are HUMAN and really not as different as everyone's preconceived assumptions put them out to be
Everyone was so patient with their pairs! It’s so heartwarming!
"Assume someone with CP is mentally capable, until they tell you they voted UKIP" BYE
Joan Marco I'm crying 😂😂
Omg I hate when ppl say "go try this (input "magical cure" of choice)," I don't have CP but I have Chrons Disease, and it's like if it works so well how come the whole world isn't cured
Exactly.
Smol Bean yep I once got a flyer that said god still cures when I walked out of the doctors office. I have never been to church in my entire life
Smol Bean same, I'm fed up of people telling me to drink lemon juice for my IBD i stg
siri chauvaux I'm vegan am let me tell you, my bones don't feel stronger, I mean I've been allergic to dairy for a long to so idk if that's it but 😂 yeah that's dumb I can't believe some of the things ppl say
JSR or take Miralax, laxatives, like fr?
Really loved watching these guys speak UP. All of them have have a sense of humor which is ever so vital regardless. I've heard a few of the comments made by these guys and yes people can be so rude with questions asked. By answering people sarcastically is a beautiful way of shutting people's mouths up. I wish all of these guys well.
The one in the "enabled not disabled" shirt seemed so done with the other person lol
Katy Sullivan lol
he probably didn't share the same sense of humour and was like "oh, dear... there we go"
That UKIP joke is hilarious.
He's really funny!
The guy with the shirt with the fish on is hilarious what a legend!
'Oh poor you'
'Oh pour me a drink!' XD
Having CP myself and seeing adults who have gone through life with it and are completely positive about it makes me feel so much better about how I am, thank you so much for making this
The woman in the floral dress is so funny omg I love her humour 💖
I like it when he goes "poor me? pour me a drink."
ok, this is in no way trying to be hateful, but for the CP afflicted who have speech issues, subtitles would have been helpful, as it is a tad difficult to understand them
there are some if you click the CC button :)
CoastConcepts I was thinking this as well. But I pressed the CC button (even tho TH-cam subtitles never work) and it actually worked perfectly!
Maddy Gowers it's because youtubers can choose to type up the subtitles manually
Yes.
Raspberry Creative am I the only one who can understand them
I work with a little girl with cerebral palsy - she is honestly the light of my life. She is so beautiful and inspiring. Her confidence and courage to never give up, honestly gives me life.
My friend of 17 years has cp. The local paper did an article on her when she graduated from high school and in it they called her a 'grappling inspiration'. You can bet we still laugh about it 4 years later
Can u guys do a video on "Things virgins are tired of hearing"?
A_Bardoloi lmao
A_Bardoloi I think you already know what virgins are tired of hearing....
My uncle has cerebral palsy and he got married, had children, and even had over 20 grandchildren! Truly an inspiring man.
Auriel Kaitz wow that really is inspiring. I know that sounds sarcastic but I swear it isn't
Auriel Kaitz Inspiring be cause he did things loads of people do???
people having kids and grandkids isn't an inspiring thing. I think he'd agree. did he do something you're not mentioning that's inspiring?
it's NOT inspirational it's someone living their life inspiration porn is so annoying. I'll probably get hate for saying that but I have CP and it's so irritating when someone says that someone doing something perfectly 'normal' is inspiring
Auriel Kaitz my dad has cerebral palsy and i have 3 other siblings and i love my dad hes the best
My friend has CP and she's now in her 20s. She has a young son and they are doing amazing. We've hung out since I was like, 5 years old. I an so happy we are able to learn about this stuff.
It's really helpful to have honest conversations like this because I don't think I'd gain as much insight being that I don't know anyone with CP.
one of my best friend has cp, and it makes me so mad when people talk down on her like she is a child. she is eighteen. an adult. not a child. I wish people could be more respectful.
I don’t have CP, but I’m slightly on the autism spectrum, so the same thing has happened to me many times, usually from my teachers, but once in a while from my parents. I hate it when people do that to me because it would always serve as a reminder that I’ll never be a normal person, no matter how hard I try. It sucks, man.
I have it really mild in my legs, I always hear "are you hurt?" nope, I hope cerebral palsy, then they're just like "Ohh..."
Rainn this symptom is quite common apparently (I have it as well). I used to be called "ballerina" and "pigeon" because I used to have a really tight heel tendon that made me walk on my toes.
🙌🏻
Omg I get that too!! Lol so annoying
My son has mild hemiplegic cerebral palsy on his right side. Periodically he has to have a cast on it as a physio intervention, can’t tell you how it does my head why people come up to me and say has be broke his leg!?? I’m like yeah of course I let my 3.5 year old walk about with a broken leg.
The level of sarcasm in this video was fantastically hilarious
I actually have a friend with cerebral palsy and now that I watched this I am more aware of how she excels! Kudos to all you who show life who’s boss!
excited to see if they'll do aromantic people or people with adhd soon!!
hyoseong's cats aromantic?
hyoseong's cats I would live to answer common ADHD questions!!! I ha e so many smart ass answers.
The Shade Of It All please tell me you're not serious.
Ainjuhl somebody who doesnt feel romantic attraction
The Shade Of It All oh well lmao
THE GIRL WITH THE BLUE HAIR THOUGH 😍😍😍
JO obviously you watch anime
lewis bird Nah just tentacle porn
"my shoulder got stuck on the way out, but it was the 80s so I was wearing shoulder pads" 🤣 just the image. Love this series
Thank you for making this
This was fantastic & really helpful. Thanks for making it :)
'Oh poor you' ... 'oh pour me a drink' 😂
As a father to a son that has just been diagnosed with CP (not knowing the severity yet) browsing youtube videos to try and get an idea of what CP really is, this video really helped turn my mood around. :)
I remember at school a motivational speaker with cerebral palsy. He told us his story and it was very touching. I think I will remember it for a long time.
It must be so frustrating to be unable to talk as fast as your mind works, though I'm sure they've adjusted to it.
Froggity i have cp and adhd and its extremely frustrating bc my mind is going 50 million miles an hr where my mouth is like dur dur dur uh dur dur dur and then i get tongue tied bc i forgot what i was talking bout and start over
3:18 "assume someone is mentally capable until the tell you they voted for UKIP." Love it!!
this video had me smiling from ear to ear. these people are hilarious! such amazing personalities!
THANK YOU SOOOOOOO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO !!!!
Do one about things not to say to people with ADHD
I'm a child with cp and I saw this in my feed. and honestly this is true it's annoying when you get people saying this to you on a daily basis. or assuming they can push your wheelchair. but overall I enjoyed the video and these people are remarkable! :)
My 4 yr old daughter was diagnosed with CP 3 months ago, and this video made me laugh and rejoice instead of cry. Love it!!
I love all of these 'things not to say' videos, it gives me hope for the future of tolerance between people and better understanding. Acceptance is key!
1:36 "Yes disabled people can have sex and I'll happily direct them to those sites"
Man this guy is so funny 😂
having cerebral palsy i get these questions on the daily
Katie pixxie cusano same
Same
Tough man, tough. I find myself lucky to even have a life, and even more, to have no (I'm just going to call it as many others call it... because I couldn't find the right word...) disabilities. I don't have a perfect life, but somebody might kill for my life. So I will deal with it.
this is the best channel.very educational
My mom has Cerebral Palsy, and is wheelchair bound, and my entire life has pretty much been filled with people telling me and her that she is unfit as a mother, assuming that she forced us to help her with tasks, etc. Thank you for this it really does mean alot.
That dude with the glasses is slick asf
My dad has cerebral palsy and when i was a bit younger we went on a cruise ship and we got to skip the super long lines and out loud i said "im so happy that my dad has a disability coz now we don't have to wait" 😂
Your dad probably laughed at that one! You were young then, though.
"well lube up and let's see" i love that guy he should be a comedian tbh. Dude got me crying the whole video and he seems like a very charismatic person
I love how happy these people are despite their disability. It shows that they won't let it back them down.
Shoutout to everyone who's got CP! ( Including Myself 😉) You're incredibly brave! I know its an extra battle we have to fight every day and it feels like no one understands but it's okay! You can get through this! Xxx
I'm so sorry but I couldn't understand a lot of the things said in this video
don't worry, there are subtitles now, there's a button in the bottom right hand corner to select them :)
Just click on the subtitles button :)
Jennie Goodrum great!
Chloe Barnes awesome!
This was a good one! Their postive outlook really had me LOL
Love this- Thank you ❤️
A person with cerebral palsy told me to remember "I don't think like I talk, I think just like everyone else."
I speak slow enough for us both - hahahaha nice one
A love all these people you guys interview. Just want to give them hugs lol
They are all so sweet!
Omg this is soooo true as a teen growing up in society with CP kids and adults are so rude and say stupid things sometimes it crazy! They feel so sorry for me, I don’t need you too!
I feel like the original Tracy Beaker having a kid with CP has helped a bit with some people's reactions/understanding.
Al Funcoot who what where when
Frank
Frank had cerebral palsy, it was revealed in the sixth episode of Series 1
My brother has CP too. I love seeing awareness being spread!
I loved this video they were all so funny and provided wisdom as well
the girl w the blue hair and the guy in the enabled not disabled shirt were both so so cute omg...
hahaha the guy with the long hair is like 'fuck im paired with THAT guy ' 😂😂
(as in no filter) hahaha
I love this series! You learn about different things people dealing with. It's really interesting. And they are so funny and cool people. :)
it really cool to see a video like this up and omg I relate to everything they said on this video
because I have cp to
HELLEEEEW GORGEOUZ😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍!!!! to the guy w the "Enabled not Disabled" shirt
JustMe215 hi
Ryan Raghoo 😋😍
“...My shoulder got stuck on the way out..........we’ll, it was the 80s, and I was wearing shoulder pads....” Dead.
I love these videos! They show the huge diversity that really exists in the world and are so funny and interesting! I love hearing experiences firsthand from people that live with whatever the topic at hand is every day. It doesn't slow these people down at all, and that's so badass!
Tip: I turned closed captioning on to understand what everyone is saying :)
I'm learning so much from these videos! When I was in high school, I was part of a vocal class that had students with disabilities (not all the classes were integrated but this one was), most of the students with disabilities had cerebral palsy. The special needs teachers would often remind the other students that mentally, the students with CP are perfectly normal and we should make friends with them like anybody else. I have quite a bit of social anxiety, so I find it hard to meet new people anyway, but the uncertainty of how to speak to somebody with CP made me even more anxious and uncomfortable, and also, not being able to understand them easily also added to the awkwardness/embarrassment I felt. Because of this, I never really was able to really become friends with any of them aside from very surface level small talk. I always remember that with a sense of guilt and regret, and I think, how can I avoid doing the same thing in the future. I think videos like this really help so thank you!
some subtitles would've been nice
They have closed captioning.
Infront of a white table...
DyslexiaSkucs you can change the colour
Miss Adjusted The closed captioning is timed wrong in some places. They mix two people's sentences together.
TH-cam literally gives you the option for captions...
The girl with blue hair and the guy with glasses? I ship it
People need to see this!!
Thank god for subtitles.
