You Know You’re Deaf When…
A few weeks ago, BBC Ouch’s Charlie Swinbourne received one of those emails we’ve all had, called ‘Child of the 80’s.’ This inspired him to contact some friends and compile a similar list for Deaf people. The result is two articles at Ouch! which I thought I’d link to here, just because, even though I can hear, they made me smile.
You Know You’re Deaf When… Part 1.
You Know You’re Deaf When… Part 2.
You know something, readers? This list has inspired me. If you can think of anything that belongs on a ‘you know you have (insert DisAbility) when…’ list, please let us know in the comments, or by email to me at samedifferenceone@hotmail.co.uk. If this gets enough reaction, I will compile lists and put them up here, and name all the contributors.
