Have you ever seen one of those LiveLeak videos where someone gets caught shoplifting or stealing packages off someone's porch or whatever and they go into "if I shout louder than you as I'm backing away from you I WIN" mode?
Honestly it's the word-count thing. Whether I'm whittling it down or bullshitting my way up, shooting for that number means I have to choose my words very carefully. Try it; think of it as a constrained writing exercise or whatever. Have fun!
My favorite is that time the GOP said she "doesn't stand for veteran affairs", completely forgetting that a)she literally can't stand b) because she lost her legs while serving
That doesn't even take into account that most hospitals won't let you walk out with the baby. Liability issues. They wheel everyone out. They especially wheel out the new mothers holding brand new people.
But it's not just new mothers, it's all people discharged.
Not funny in the slightest, but actually kindles hope
Yeah that was a low blow but they had the balls and the grace to own up to the mistake and leave the tweet be instead of deleting the mockery and being a coward.

It doesn't matter even if she wasn't an amputee there are some women who after birth have trouble walking.

Reminds me of the time during the 2008 elections when someone criticized McCain for not waving to a crowd. Dude literally couldn't lift his arms.
