On my wife's side of the family, half of the deaf people are like that. I have to leave out idioms & big words and keep it simple with them, otherwise I will be repeating myself constantly. Even using idioms or big words with ASL doesn't help. My closest deaf friends are not like that, even...

Umm......you don't want to know.......

True, however, most people are social creatures and need socialization. Deaf folks like you and I have learned over the years to adapt and find other ways to keep ourselves entertained.

Been a couple months since I was able to ride in decent weather. Took the DL out of the garage, donned my new heated liner & gloves, and rode 50 miles in the afternoon. 43 degrees and sunny today. Going to get a lot of snow on Monday, so grabbed the chance. Took these shots with my smartphone:

This. Saavik: Don't take it as a personal attack on you....take it as advice. My observation: Most people who have a hard time connecting with others usually have some kind of social disorder....there are many, many underlying reasons. You are working with a counselor, which is a great...

I assume you want to re-use the cord since you got another disposal that is designed to be hard-wired? If you really want to re-use it, use a screwdriver and force the clip out of there, then pull the clip apart....try not to cut the wire. If you do damage the wire, can cut it, separate the...

Regular girls are easy??? I must have missed the memo....

I wish my sink cabinet was as clean and neat as yours. Mine looks like something blew up under there and I never cleaned it. Anyway, those vents have a specific name, air admittance valve...here is one sample: Sure-Vent® Air Admittance Valve Are you the original tenant? If not, it is...

You are more than welcome to watch her and I get into it. Been going on for a few years now.

Very true, but I think that is only half the reason.....the other half is because today's generation of children do not give a crap. Parents either are too overworked to care, or as I have seen, don't give a crap either. As a teacher, you should know.....after all, how many parents showed up...

Now that I got some sleep, I woke up and realized that I said the wrong stuff to you, went back and corrected what I said. On all disposals, the top connector is for dishwasher hookups, the second lower hole is for the drainpipe. If you remove the disposal, you can get a $4 'Y' pipe and put...

The black flex pipe entering the top of the disposal is the dishwasher drainpipe, and it is secured at a high point. The little valve on the lower left is the dishwasher hookup. Notice the short upright copper tube? That is a water hammer arrestor, be glad you have one. Only issue I see is...

I walked by a co-worker on Monday morning, and he said "You Suck". Tuesday morning, I walked by him and guess what he said? That's right!!! He said "You Suck" again!....amazing, huh?

Love Metallica. Motley Crue is ok. Metallica has been around since the late '80's, they are still young.

I had a couple friends in college..one wanted to be a police officer and the other a fireman. Only one finally became a fireman....about 8 years ago.....after a very long and expensive lawsuit. Can one be deaf and a police officer? It is possible.....on a campus with deaf people. Out there in...

I would be delighted if other people were thinking carnal thoughts about me....:naughty: I am sure we would all be depressed if we knew what others were really thinking about us..... Anyway, I would love to be invisible and have the ability to change into any kind of person I wanted.

You haven't asked me....I only paid $250 for the aid.

Danger of suffocation. Have you ever sat in one of those vagina-shaped chairs that swallows your whole body & you can't move? Imagine a 4 legged creature being stuck in one of those.

Trust me, I went to college with a lot of deaf folks, and have met many more outside of college.....there are a lot of deaf folks that are against other deaf folks due to race, religion, political beliefs, disability, and many others. What Mewtilation is trying to say is that Racism is not...
