For those of you that use a cane, what kind of tip do you use? My cane has a rollerball tip. For some reason, I get a lot of really stupid comments from people about it. I even had a POLICE OFFICER ask me, “Did you get mad at a golf ball and ram your cane into it or something?”
I’ve had another person ask if I was looking for treasure (thinking that my cane was some sort of metal detector).
I don’t know if it’s because of the cane tip that I use or if people are just stupid but every day, at least once, someone asks me, “What’s the stick for?” My partner says that I should reply with, “For hitting stupid people like you.” LOL
Picture above: A fold-able white cane with red at the end and a rollerball tip like the one I have.
