How many times do u guys get that comment? I get it all the time from workmates, guys with kids making loud noises. Etc etc :zzz::tears:
 
I say I know! I'm so lucky I can see. Then I breakdown and start crying. They leave me alone after that.
 
"Heard it" so many times...that now when somebody says..."Ur so luc.....ky...to be....dea...th"....I say "What"?...they have to repeat it over and over....After awhile...and repeating it several times....I don't think they feel I'm so lucky after all....:giggle:
 
I don't get that very much anymore except for last spring when I was undisturbed by a baby that screamed and cried during the entire 16 hour flight.

When people say that to me, i ask them if they're interested in exchanging their hearing for my deafness so they can be the lucky one :) their reactions are pretty amusing.

The way I see it is what if that person doesn't like eating spinach, but was only food that day, and tells the other person who can't taste .. oh ur lucky u can't taste it.
Hmm did that analogy make sense?
 
The other day, a new janitor comes into my office to pick up the trash and says hi and makes little jokes with me. She noticed my accent and was like "Where are you from??". "I was born in Miami." "But you have an accent." "Yes.. that's because I am deaf." "OH MY GOD!! You are DEATH?! WOW! That is so cool!! Born death!?"

You have no idea how much I wanted to say "Yep! Ive been Death all of my life!"

I get the "lucky" thing all the time. Sometimes, I pull the joker thing: "I may look happy and lucky on the outside, but really I am crying inside." Many people respond with "Oh my gosh, I'm sorry. I'm sure its not easy..." Hahaha....
 
Too funny! Yeah I get the same inquiry abt accent and "ur death" its weird but yeah happens:dunno:

Why am I tempted to say, "it's a real laugh riot?" Oh, yea, I'm evil.
 
:laugh2::rofl:

a girl in class today told me that she has an ear infection so she doesn't hear very well right now either.

riiight, that's *totally* the same thing. :roll:
 
I never had anyone tell that I was lucky to be HOH, and I am glad ! I see see nothing lucky about it!
