You know what the one thing a wheelchair-bound person never needs?

A fucking chair.

They do, though. Most tables don't sport the room underneath to allow a wheelchair, this if one goes out for dining, one needs to transfer to a regular chair.

If possible ofc, but it sincerely limits the scope of restaurants you can visit if you can't switch seats.

i always wondered why the arms of wheelchairs weren't adjustable/removable. It seems like it would be a smart thing to implement. I can move my office chair arms up and down, forward and backwards, i even have about 30° of rotation available

They do and it's very common, no idea what that other imbecile is blithering about.
