I was actually raised by a single umpire and everyone just assumed I would turn out umpire too but I'm actually electrical
Nobody is born an umpire, you become an umpire if you get bitten by one but umpire parents always have electrical babies
Same, literally 😅 its my job
Username checks out.
Happy for you that you finally get your recognition!
Zop.
What are they implying with that wide-ass door for women?
I don’t like yo mama jokes. I just think about them.
But seriously, strollers and wheelchairs.
It’s probably for ADA compliance
If it were for ADA compliance, the “Umpires” door would need a Braille sign.
Compliance with their wide asses!
I like wide asses and I cannot lie
ADA compliance most likely. If you look closely, everything on the Umpire door is also in Braille.
wide-ass
They're probably implying exactly this.
Maybe for strollers?
Also the only one with a key pad!?
I can't extract a yo momma joke from that though
If yo mama has wheels, she needs wheelchair access toilets.
Nah, she would've been a bike.
I thought this was America!
gasp there's a transformer in the electrical bathroom!
"My name is Optimus Prime..."
That 'Women' door be thicc tho
Probably USA.
Electricians and umpires don't require accessible doors.
I’m tired of umpires being discriminated against! They are not “separate but equal”. I say we treat them like the humans they pretend to be.
I’ll stop discriminating against umpires when they learn to see.
Decidedly identifying as electrical if that's an option.
How do you become an umpire? Do you become one when you're bitten by another umpire?
You get hit by a baseball. Then you're cursed with an overwhelming fear of getting hit by baseballs
This compels you to get protective equipment and hide behind a guy (who's entire job is to catch the ball if it makes it past the batter)
They should have the umpires sign in braille
There is a Finnish hick t-shirt text "Don't touch electrician when you are wet".
This is because electrician in Finnish is "sähkömies" and is literally translated "electric man"
Are umpires electric?
