    As a none native speaker I don’t get it… Is it some kind of slang word? Like in german you can insult a skinny person by calling them a leek.

      In case you are serious - “vegetable” is a really negative way of calling heavily disabled people.

        To make sure, the joke didn’t make sense until ‘part of’ was revealed right?

        Heavily disabled is a weird way of saying completely immobile and likely braindead.

          Completely immobile and likely braindead is a longer way of saying fucked.

      i think Demdaru covered the way it’s used in this meme but FYI it’s also used for comatose patients (see german: “vegetieren”)
