TV Signers

I was just watching a bit of late night telly, and I noticed how they only ever have those little people in the corner doing sign language at night... Why is that? Do deaf people only ever come out at night? Is there some kind of vampiric disability group, who meet every night at 1am to watch Teachers TV or reruns of Magnum PI?



And where do they find these people anyway? Sitting there in the corner of your TV while you're trying to enjoy a program, looking like a mime artist on ecstasy, acting all embarrassed every time somebody says "willy" or "darn".

I find myself sitting there, not knowing what's going on at all, because all I can do is stare at this crazed inter-show aerobics instructor.

Eventually your average TV will have a little button like the subtitle one to turn him/her off, and the world will be a better place for it.

Here's waiting for the future,

Matt.
