'Sup, pogs!
Let's all go to the movies, and let's all see the same movie, and let's discuss it here.
Gabe loves fan fiction. You Can Make It Up features his own personal alternate adventures starring some of our favorite characters.
After watching Death Sentence, a terrible movie starring Kevin Bacon as a father in search of vigilante justice directed by Saw's James Wan, Gabe embarked on The Hunt For The Worst Movie of All Time. This is his sad journey.
So good!

More sound!
Warning: you will continue to cry on subsequent viewings as well.
The only thing – THE ONLY THING – to have ever made me cry on the internet was one of those godforsaken troops coming home videos. This guy interrupted his son’s kindergarten class. *sniff* and when the kid saw his dad, he just lost it and ran and started bawling into his dads shoulder. *sob* On no, I gone too far. I can’t stop tearing up!
For me it was that Story Corps story Danny and Annie. There is no defence against old people in love.
She’s going to love being able to hear until someone plays her some Skrillex, then this whole cookie is going to crumble.
I just now learned that people are starting to refer to music in the vain of Skrillex as ‘complextro’. Ugh.
Remember when people used to like music?
Serious question, how is she able to speak so well?
related question: If you had been deaf, how would you understand what words meant, since you had never heard them spoken before? Do you think there is someone off screen signing? Or do you think she is more lip reading? Or is it somehow inherent?
This video is posted over on io9, and some of the commenters over there do a good job offering explanations.
There’s some good discussion about this question here as well: https://plus.google.com/101629211371073711149/posts/GNS9YkQ5xEz
The term ‘deaf’ covers a wide range of hearing impairments – it doesn’t refer only to complete and total silence. The woman who posted the video added in the comments that she’s worn hearing aids since she was 2 years old, but that they can only do so much, and she has always depended heavily on lip-reading.
My guess is that she’s overwhelmed by how CLEAR everything is after a lifetime of struggling to decipher AM-radio static.
Very Very Emotional seeing this!
And Her Arm is so so beautifully done!
So Happy for this lovely gal!

Just for the record:
1. My very own GIF? SQUEEEEE!!!!
2. I am super happy for this woman.
and
3. Thinking intelligent people ALWAYS regret fucking up their skin with stupid bullshit in their 20′s.
Also, you know I love you guys, right?
Seriously.
Monsters are the best.
I don’t regret any of the tattoos I got in my 20s, they’re just tattoos. I’m intelligent enough to know that it’s just skin and who cares, and did I mention I should probably get more of them, because honestly, who cares?
It sounds like you totes regret your tattoos though!

Ah yes, the rules of tattoos, from “The big book of rules of tattoos” – by Sgt. Dick McGoo
Weird though, I don’t hate my mom, and have never been in the army, yet I still have tattoos. Well, What the!
Indigenous people all hate their momz though. Science fact!

Also, these aren’t “Rules” they are just the reason I don’t have tats (Dick McGoo? Was it hard to get your mom to sign the release form to get those tats?).
BOOOO! Boo that man!
Yes, that’s it. Feel the hate. And also, Feel the hat.
Feel the hate is a Bill Hicksism, FYI so give credit where credit is due, bro
Actually, I was quoting Emperor Palpatine, but I will gladly give Bill Hicks all of the props ever.
fucking spell check

Sir: It is not the sentiment. It is the rudeness and inappropriateness.
We don’t like trolls, they bore us. Be along your merry way, please.

IT ATED MY COMMENTS TWICE
Watching people cry tears of happiness always gets me.
does watching fake things get you faked?
tometimes.
FAKE!!! Snopes already exposed this one, its a hoax
Nope.
wrong.
Can you send the link to the article on Snopes? I cannot find it.
HA HA HAHA idiot!!!!!
I am curious if she’s figured out how to tune out background noise as the other links mention that she’s been wearing implants her whole life. There was a very interesting This American Life segment that explained how people with implants hear EVERYTHING at the same level. I also know this through that ABC Family show, Separated at Birth.

That this American Life segment is fascinating! Because it does exactly the opposite as this video: he gets the implant, and suddenly he experiences sound for the first time! And then the novelty wore off, and then all the sound just annoying. He’s like “it got old”. The link is here: link.
Yeah what exactly are you guilty about?

It’s so disappointing when a Videogum comments section ends up looking like a comment section from the rest of the Internet.

Not sorry enough to stop posting, obviously.
