When I witness some angry struttin'....
You know, from me as a deaf/hh person looking at a bunch of anonymous, unknown people doing his or her thing making far flung comments in various blogs and postings reminds me of watching some, unknown guy doing his/her "struttin' business."
No sound is needed when all one need is to see it visually just like the one in the video above. It doesn't make any sense but you're seeing it. Right there.
Whatever words came forth are rendered meaningless because all you remember is the struttin' instead, the walking around, the finger pointing, the flailing of the arms, the constant mouth movements, the hopping, stomping, the sticking of the rear end out and so on. And, exactly what was the message in the end?
But like me and others who continually witness these odd "struttin' businesses" from a variety of people can only cause you to wonder and shake your head, and you're probably scratchin' your heads, too, at the absurdity of it all. Angry, sure. It's obvious. Anybody can see that. But to throw words here or there hoping it'd stick long enough to mean something but they end up entirely lost because all you can remember is all that struttin'.
Now, if ya'll want a meaningful discourse I'd be happy to do it when it comes to a variety of hearing loss topics and such. If you have an important message, say it, without doing the whole struttin' business and be obscure about it. I have my hopes but I am keeping realistic here, too. Creativity has its limits around here in these parts. Make it count.

HA! HA! HA! That video cracked me up. I watched it without the sound. The angry man looked ridiculous, proving your point.
