Probably has gross/disturbing ones lined up for years.

Edit: Next page! Woooooo!

According to this it's fake. I didn't look before because I wanted to believe. Sorry. Still, it's a striking image even if the colors have been photoshopped.

(this is not directed at you BH)


It is a totally fucking stupid and obnoxious meme.

IMO, of course.

Obviously, one needs to be told about audio cues if one cannot hear them... and it's not to invoke fear (ya dumb ass!) - it is to let the deaf understand what the hearing world may find appealing to that moment in the movie. Personally, I find those messages as moments that help expose me to worlds I would otherwise ignore. I'm not remotely compelled to mock the industry that shares this information with the hearing impared, and I hate to say it but, I find it uncompassionate and negative humor because it pretty much is.

Not to make it un-funny, but can you describe what makes it funny, other than a hamster looking surprised itself is humorous... but perhaps that is all there is? (Honest request)

Well people have that look when scared from a horror movie......its postulating that the deaf have the same reaction from seeing that written in their closed caption text :)

Ive always kinda wondered...if you've been deaf since birth how does a lot of that CC help you? Like "Creepy music" or "Light opera singing"....I mean if you have never heard a sound how would you know what it is or sounds like?

Because they know what those things represent regardless of whether they have experienced them. It may not be as emotional of an experience, but they can still get the message.

Which is what I took the joke to be about - something that is visceral in its original form being reduced to a simple, plain description, and yet still causing the same extreme visceral reaction. Not that it's funny when you analyze/explain it (in other words, it's the same joke playing itself out in this post.) I don't take it as particularly mean spirited, but I could certainly imagine some people feeling that way, and I'd probably not have posted it myself rather than take the chance.

This.

It's similar to Stevie Wonder/Ray Charles jokes... "Have you seen Stevie Wonder's new house? Neither has he!" :? :? :roll: :roll: It's a joke at the expense of someone's disability. They didn't choose it. But the mechanics of the joke were enough to get me to the laugh at it the first time I heard it as a kid.

I've actually seen deaf people talk about this. The answer is that they pick up a huge amount information about sound from cultural context.

The "creepy music" they imagine might not be what you imagine, but they know what music is and they know what "creepy" means, and that's all that's necessary.

Blind people are the same way about vision. They might have no experience of "a beautiful sunset," but they have a very clear idea of what a beautiful sunset usually means to people.

Thats interesting. its stuff like this I think about off and on my entire life. How do the deaf understand music. How do you describe a color to a blind person. Taste to someone with no taste receptors.

In small ways, we all do this.

Someone who has never smoked a cigarette or dropped acid or jumped out of an airplane still has a pretty good sense of how those things "feel" (or, more importantly, how they are supposed to feel) just from having encountered their depiction in various media. I've never been shot with a gun, but I have a vivid sense of what it means to get shot. etc.

People instructing the deaf or blind use analogies. Teaching the deaf about music, for example, often involves touch (making a hard or soft or sliding rhythm with your fingers on the deaf person's arm). Teaching the blind about color often involves metaphors of temperature or sound.

I've read a couple of anecdotes about deaf students by their teachers. One said she had a kid who assumed that the sun is really loud. Another kid was mortified to learn that farts make noise, and she had to go into the finer points of "some farts."

As someone who writes alt text to describe news photos, I recently stopped mentioning colors. "Blue shirt" probably doesn't tell a blind person anything useful, and in fact might just annoy them.

You know, I bet the sun would be really loud if not for that vacuum stuff. Not necessarily by the point its energy reaches Earth. I have no idea.
