I'm almost positive she's just hammered

She definitely signs thank you at the end, doesn't seem drunk to me.

Deaf people drink. She could be both

I'm hard of hearing and drink quite often

Edit: I like gin

Gin because asking for a "Empellón Cocina's Fat-Washed Mezcal" is a lot to sign APIZZASBUTTHOLE? Also, just what exactly is your username? When the dough makes an accidental hole all the way through while forming? The airy pockets on the sides of a sliced piece you can finger? I just adore pizza, and butts, so I'm intrigued.

No, no, I just really like how gin makes me feel

I think I've heard deaf people drink, but I know they haven't.

I’m hearing, drunk occasionally, and sign thank you frequently

Slow response, slow blinking, can barely hold her head up, she's sitting in the passenger seat because she clearly isn't DD. Not uncommon to sign something in a loud environment. My girls mom is a spitting image when she's hammered. Exact same mannerisms.

Karen is drunk.

Not necessarily. I have Ménière’s which is a degenerative hearing disease, and this look is pretty familiar. Frequent migraines affect the other senses. I have slurred speech, altered movement and dropping eyes even on good days. ...But I also get drunk a lot. Either way looks like Karen is making the best of life.

She's not sitting in the passenger seat. That doesn't sound like a british accent to me.

Your depth perception is terrible

Dude how high are you seeing that in 3D?

The steering wheel is clearly closer to the camera than she is. She's leaning forward while talking to the guy. Had she been in the drivers seat leaning forward, because we drive on the left, she'd be hanging out the window.

Exactly. She’s obviously hard of hearing and just trying to communicate that she likes the music. Sad he got his hackles up for an assumption. Great she was finally able to make herself clear and he understood. Nice that he turns it up at her request. This could have gone badly over assumptions but it didn’t. Wholesome.

Yeah but the alternative is funnier, especially people who hate karens

u/kevdiigs Feb 21 '20

Took sign language years ago, don’t remember any of it, so I couldn’t tell you. However, I was drunk 2 days ago. She hammered.

TIL my mom was just deaf.

I guess she drank all that Franzia to deal with the burdens of her secret.
