Woman Pretends To Be Deaf To Reject The Guys

VIDEO: Asian woman pretends to be Deaf to reject the guys trying it on with her on a night out goes viral on social media.





Metro: It seems one girl has finally had enough of the long process involved in rejecting guys on a night out.



When a young woman is approached by a stranger in a club, she starts using "sign language" in order to pretend to be Deaf. It appears she thought this would be a way to reject his advances, and it worked!





What should be a simple ‘Sorry, I’m not interested’ often turns into a lengthy attempt of explaining you either have a boyfriend, are engaged or even that you swing the other way.



Sometimes it’s because the guy interested in you is incredibly persistent but often it’s just because – in definite British fashion – we’re just too damn polite and scared of hurting someone’s feelings.



But this girl, however, is sick and tired of being polite and making excuses. So, she’s opted for for another way to reject their fellow clubber.



In a video posted to Imgur by user Tausif007, a girl can be seen turning a guy away with the use of sign language.



A brave move, but one that most definitely worked.



But it turns out, she didn’t actually sign anything – she simply waved her hands around.



One Reddit user commented: ‘I am a teacher for the Deaf and she did not sign a single American Sign Language. She would have been embarrassed if I signed back.’



So perhaps in future, it’d be best to learn the sign language before somebody does actually begin to sign back. Owned! Source

Deaf Man Rescues Deer From Frozen River

VIDEO: Deaf News: This Deaf man recorded the heartwarming aftermath of himself saving a young deer from an icy death.





DULUTH, MN -- A Bambi must have had a guardian angel looking out for him (or her) this week, after having gotten itself stuck in some icy water. Luckily for the deer, a Good Samaritan just happened to be driving by when he spotted the deer and sprung into action. The above video was likewise taken by the Good Samaritan, who happens to be Deaf, explaining what happened, one-handed signing as he holds the camera with the other hand.





The rescue of ‘Miss Ice River. The rescue of ‘Miss Ice River’: Duluth man saves deer from frigid water - video of a Deaf man next to an exhausted, ice-covered deer he just rescued from a frigid river has been making the rounds on the Internet in recent days.





If you don’t understand sign language, a family friend of the man who posted the video to Reddit was helpfully able to translate:



I was driving along when I see this deer struggling to survive. I felt obligated to help her, so I pulled over, trekked through the woods, and crawled out onto the ice. I used a rope to pull her out. I am so glad she is safe. Now we need to find her mom.



[After he pets deer] I will call her Miss Ice River. She must be so cold. I am so happy that she survived. Farewell.



Unfortunately there were no further updates and it’s to be assumed that the man went on his way after rescuing the deer, but since deer are pretty resilient, we can only assume it went on to survive the ordeal. I’m not sure how many “lives” deer are supposed to have, but hopefully this one stays off the ice (and out of traffic) from now on. Source
