Reminds me how deaf people who never heard sound before and who hearing implants... their biggest surprise is learning that the sun's heat doesn't make a noise.

If sound traveled through the vacuum of space it would be deafening

Not many people know this, but cheese is already plural. The singular form is choose.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Joking aside, you're making me think. Is this like the fish situation, where as long as it's the same species or general "fish" it stays singular, but if you're talking about multiple species specifically then it's fishes?

I feel like cheeses is the correct form here since it is actually several different kinds of cheese.

This works both with the context of this thread and also on it's own

How does this already exist? Lol

happy cheese noises

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I am confused, are they turning up the volume to drown out the cheese sound or are they turning the cheese volume down?

Makes you think don’t it.

Can a hearing person explain the difference to me?

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Cheese is screaming all the time, but you can't see that.

[–] tdawg 3 points 1 year ago

Why am I laughing so hard

[–] saltesc 7 points 1 year ago

I was on a bus with a bunch of deaf people signing to each other. The only sound they made was laughing to each other's jokes like no one was listening. It was wholesome. Meanwhile in non-deaf world, we stifle our happiness and fight to hold back giggle fits in case someone gets upset for causing a ruckus.

I wonder what mute people would see.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Closed captions, probably.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Damn. Now I feel like an asshole.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Big if true

But we probably don't see the exact same color. There always are small variations

That's especially clear with blue and green. Some people say something a color is more blue and some say it's more green.

[–] AnUnusualRelic 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Looks more black and gold to me, I don't know...

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

It's laurel GODDAMN IT! ...wait wrong one

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

And that's assuming we are using the color words exactly the same...
