You know, every single one of you complain about hearies and the way they communicate with you and none of you can come up with a solution for it or to help them. :thumbd: You expect them to help you, why not put the shoe on the other foot and help them instead of acting like a bunch of clods?? 
You know what I do? :idea: I NEVER say: "HUH?" "WHAT?" "WHAT DID YOU SAY?" "CAN YOU REPEAT THAT?" 
All those are dead giveaways that you're deaf. Try amusing them. :P Do you know what I do? :idea: All I say is: "I'm sorry, can you repeat that?" Or, I'll say, "I'm sorry, run that past me again?" I NEVER (everyone, repeat after me!!) NEVER SAY I CAN'T HEAR YOU. NEVER SAY SPEAK UP, I'M DEAF. 
Sheesh!! :roll: How many of you have graduated from high school and some of you have college degrees and you can't get the upper hand instead of insulting hearing people? Holy cow, grow up! :roll:
Granted, the F-M area isn't all that great for the deaf and hoh, but I can manage and hold my own, no thanks to the "deaf" community here. :thumbd:
