My partner is disabled and is upset by it. Because to them, it's saying that lame (which is related to disability, even if it is not commonly used in regards to humans) = bad or stupid. That really bothers them. This is the essay that they frequently link to explain why it is offensive to them.

I'm also disabled in a similar way (we have nearly identical medical conditions, it's really kind of fucked up) and it doesn't personally bother me, mainly because I was obsessed with veterinarians as a child and read a lot of books about animals and vet care and so associate it with animals, not people. That said, I never liked the term in its use as slang in the first place, so it's not something I've had to remove from my vocabulary, because I didn't say it in the first place.

IMO I prefer to err on the side of caution; maybe most people won't be bothered by it, but even if it's "only" a few people who are hurt by it, to me, that's not worth it when I can think of an alternate word fairly easily. (I do this for other words, like "crazy". I did not realize until some folks pointed out that it was hurtful to them just how much I used that word. Although, considering I am actually mentally ill, you can rip my self-identifier as "crazy" out of my cold dead hands. >_>)
