I don't want to clutter up the Mass Shooter thread with this nonsense so it goes here.
I have ABC news on in the background while I work. They were interviewing a hospital official. I noticed they zoomed in on him and quit showing the very animated sign language interpreter. Not sure if she thought this was going to be her 15 minutes or what, but geeze. Good call ABC.

i could be wrong, but i think that’s part of the gig…seems every signer is overly animated, perhaps intentionally so

This chick was over the top. Dude is talking about bullet wounds and she's going full William Shatner.

Now for some perspective from a "hard of hearing"/deaf person......

99, you might want to google “why are sign language interpreters so animated”

I wouldn't necessarily say that I was you. What you shared was valid and true.
I find many signers are extremely animated - to the point of actually being a major distraction to some/many of those who are not hard of hearing.

Matthew Perry dead.
Kind of surprised he lasted this long.
May he Rest In Peace.
Sort of eerie this was his last Instagram post being that he allegedly drowned in his hot tub.

I didn’t watch Friends and only knew about him peripherally, but a point I heard someone make about his ongoing problems with addictions was that unlike so many others with that affliction, he maintained his wealth and managed not to lose everything as a result.

Perfect example of how on one hand you can have a great life and on the other hand your life can be a living hell. At the same time.

Felt good this morning. Made the decision to fight back. Yes, at the risk of getting shot but at this point I don't really care that much.
Asshole made an illegal left turn (didn't wait for green arrow - which the sign clearly states is required) and almost hit me. I was walking in the crosswalk.
I yelled at him "GREEN ARROW ONLY". He gave me the finger AND said fuck you to me. I started to walk up to his car and he drove off slowly. I kept walking towards his car and he pulled over by the Hancock on Delaware. I kept walking quickly towards his car and pretended to reach in to my laptop bag as if I was going to pull something out. Dude floored it and drove off.
Yep, could have been shot but as I said, at this point I really don't care. Go ahead, shoot me. Put me out of my misery of living in a fucked up city, country, world.
