September is Deaf Awareness Month.
The quotes listed on the meme were gathered last year. What would you add to the list?
The other day at an expo center (lots of noise, bad acoustics) I told someone I use lipreading when she tried to talk to me without me looking at her. Instead of talking to me, she signed sorry five times while walking away from me. What is she sorry for?
At that point, I walked away from her. I didn't feel like dealing with so much "sorry" because I didn't feel sorry. She lost my business.
