Re: Cracked article on being Deaf

That Cracked article pointed out some douchebaggery on his part - namely, the "STERILIZE ALL THE DEAF PEOPLE" mentality, while having a deaf mother and wife, and having kids with said wife. (Granted, her deafness wasn't genetic, but still...) I decided to post some relevant facts to send that douch...

Re: Cracked article on being Deaf

Wow, Alexander Graham Bell was a douchebag. (That article left out that he was ten years older than his wife. Who he met as her teacher. And apparently they started dating when he was still her teacher. And there's evidence that this may have started when she was 16.) ...How is any of that informat...

You are putting a yet to be born child at risk... Yes, and I condemn a ton of yet-to-be-born children to non-existence every time I decide to play with myself.

Re: Cracked article on being Deaf

Interesting article. I did notice this, though: I also frequently get asked if deaf people can drive. Yes, of course they can, and why wouldn't they? It's not an insane question like the others (like "can you have children", oy vey). It's illegal in some places to drive with headphones on, because ...

Competition is terrible and forcing others into it is just despicable). How she treated Hisao and Misha in the beginning infuriated me In what reality is competition terrible? And nobody is ever forced into competition. :P She hasn't exactly enslaved anybody to be her competition monkeys. How she t...

Re: Do blind people actually touch people's faces?

Dealing with deafness isn't just learning sign language and boom all problems solved. It is on his end. Some Google research and Youtube videos of a blind man suggest that it is at least somewhat a misconception (of those who do so, they all seem consistent in noting that it's reserved for close fr...

Re: If you could be anyone in katawa shoujo, who would it be

I'd be fine being Hanako. Her scars aren't all that bad. True, although it depends on the circumstances and the disposition of the person it happens to as to how they're affected. I guess that's true in any case though. Hanako's worst problem I'd imagine (aside from the social stigma from horrific ...

Re: Journey of a Non-weeaboo

The only problem is that the intention wasn't to coax Hisao into bed, just like how when Hisao showed her his scar, it wasn't to coax her into bed. I just went back and rewatched the scene, and she just wanted to show him the full extent of the scarring and better explain what happened to her. And ...
