How am I an ableist? My ex-girlfriend was in a wheelchair, and we lived in the same old building with a broken elevator. I ended the relationship by moving to the 8th floor.

Listen up, buttercup! This joke is all about a dude who seems like a real jerk. His girlfriend was in a wheelchair, right? They lived in a building with a busted elevator. Instead of, ya know, being a decent human and helping her out, he dumps her and moves to the 8th floor! It's funny because it's so wrong. The dude is definitely insensitive, which makes it a dark joke, because you're laughing at the misfortune of someone who uses a wheelchair.
