Ok. Thought he was with that last statement, but still poor word choice there. It was deliberately a preposterous thing to say. I loved the juxtaposition of Sammy's affected expertise and certainty against your actual, hard-won expertise, and I was trying to humorously draw more attention to it. I apologize for not making that clear. I hope you don't harbor any hard feelings, because I legit wanted to high-five you after you made your post. I thought you were being sarcastic. It was the "being deaf" part that got me. It's hard as a deaf person to read "really bad at being deaf" and not be offended right off the bat by it even it was just joking/sarcastic. Had you said lip reading instead of being deaf, I wouldn't have thought anything of it because lord knows my friends have made fun of or called me out on it whenever I've made a horrible lip reads. We're cool though.
