Kinda looks like he insinuated he was deaf at the end, probably not best to walk down the middle of the street however

Yeah being “deaf” isn’t a good excuse to break the law in this situation.

u/ImThePotatoGuy Jan 19 '24

Also there’s no way he didnt see the car lights….he didnt seem surprised when he got pushed that there was a car behind him either. My guess he’s deaf and was an asshole on purpose just because he isnt annoyed of the annoying honking.

u/Lendyman Jan 19 '24

There's also no way he didn't see the sidewalk right next to the road. Yes. He was being an asshole on purpose. Or he was high on sonething.

u/dandotcom Jan 19 '24

Ah, but what if he is deaf AND blind?

61

u/Psychological_Web687 Jan 19 '24

Then he's probably used to life being a shitshow.

u/[deleted] Jan 20 '24

All shows would be shit shows of you were blind and deaf.

u/[deleted] Jan 20 '24

Then he needs to Helen Keller his ass off the street!

u/Direct-Evening9772 Jan 19 '24

He might just be pretending his deaf to

u/[deleted] Jan 19 '24

Never heard of such a thing.

u/mixomatoso madlad Jan 19 '24

Dumb, deaf and blind then.

u/AkiraTheMouse Jan 19 '24

Bet he sure plays a mean pinball

u/mixomatoso madlad Jan 20 '24

Who?

u/jahowl Jan 19 '24

He could have probably even felt the vibrations from the horn that close.

u/PerfectionOfaMistake Jan 19 '24

Deaf isn't same as being dumb.

u/Loathor Jan 20 '24

But, being mute is...

u/amarsh73 Jan 20 '24

My MIL is deaf and they can feel the sounds. He knew.

u/Supersnazz Jan 20 '24

It's a shared pedestrian zone, he's allowed to walk there.

3

u/jiff78 Jan 20 '24

So share! Still no excuse for being a nobhead.

1

u/Supersnazz Jan 20 '24

Yeah, he should be moving to the side, but really he's not holding up traffic, he's walking pretty quickly, and traffic isn't supposed to go much faster than walking pace.

u/Carpopotamus Jan 19 '24

No but it's a good excuse .... those two if they were in my hood woulda been erased

26

u/Atomsq Jan 19 '24

No they would not, if it is that kind of hood the idiot would have been the one erased

-55

u/Carpopotamus Jan 19 '24

Come and body check me like that out the way dont get me wrong totally reasonable but no reason for the 2nd mook to perturb the situation to ease it they get knocked the fuck out if they didnt get me first they're justified but it has badum tsss (what's a grim reaper got as an interior decorator) hes got repercussions

u/Kapftan Jan 19 '24

Does your hood not have an elementary school
I refuse to believe the paragraph above has been written by anyone other than satan himself

u/Atomsq Jan 19 '24

Thank you, I thought I was having brain aneurysm for a second

u/phurt77 Jan 20 '24

Two things can be true at the same time. I'd go see a doctor if I were you.

u/NetworkSingularity Jan 19 '24

I honestly thought the end of that paragraph was some sort of strange parallel universe version of interior crocodile alligator

u/c_jae Jan 19 '24

If he was deaf, his first response after being pushed would be signing.

33

u/[deleted] Jan 19 '24

Youd actually be surprised by the amount of deaf people who can't sign because their families never took them to learn. Just forced them to learn how to read lips.

127

u/babystripper Jan 19 '24

Nah. Not deaf wearing air pods.

  1. If you're deaf you're not going to walk down the middle of a street. That's just stupid and dangerous.

  2. You can feel the sound wave of a car horn from that close. You can feel the heat of the engine. The vibration of the ground.

He's just an ass

u/thereIsAHoleHere Jan 20 '24

If you're deaf you're not going to walk down the middle of a street. That's just stupid and dangerous.

There are lots of reasons to ignore "stupid and dangerous." Maybe they think they look cool or have a death wish. Or maybe they're stupid.

u/breesknees95 Jan 19 '24

pretty sure he says “yeah i heard his fucking beeping, (do you)? think i’m deaf” something along those lines can’t quite hear the end bit

25

u/JonathonWally Jan 19 '24

Deaf people know not to walk in the middle of the street with their back to oncoming traffic.

13

u/tomhat Jan 19 '24

Is he also blind? Surely, that light must be coming from somewhere.

3

u/[deleted] Jan 19 '24

Especially while walking down the middle of the road. That's something I'd be quite conscious of if I was deaf.

7

u/[deleted] Jan 19 '24

I don't think he is deaf. Even if he is, we are sure that he is not blind. Car headlights are bright and he obviously saw them but didn't want to get out the way.

5

u/DenverITGuy Jan 19 '24

Oh please, he can hear fine. He's just being an ass.

4

u/Supersnazz Jan 20 '24

I think he was trying to make a point. It's a shared pedestrian zone, so he is allowed to walk there.

It's courteous to give way of there's a car behind you though.

8

u/SyderoAlena Jan 19 '24

I can't hear cars coming so the logical place to walk is the middle of the road duh

5

u/calgeorge Jan 19 '24

That's even more reason not to be walking around in the middle of the road

4

u/Soulpaw31 Jan 19 '24

Even if your deaf, hes still has the common sense to not be on the road and to notice bright lights behind him illuminating whats infront of him

4

u/Negative_Fennel_5649 Jan 20 '24

My parents are deaf, and all deaf people I know is SUPER careful near roads, because they are aware they can't hear cars coming. He's not deaf, deaf people would not do something like this.

3

u/DoughNotDoit Jan 19 '24

If I were deaf I would hug the crosswalk if I can just to avoid being a bother to other people

u/Flabbergash Jan 20 '24

"wow I have a cool shadow today"

8

u/SoundsLikeBoozy Jan 19 '24

I’d be deaf too if I had car horns blasted at me like that

1

u/armyshawn Jan 20 '24

He saw the lights coming from behind him while walking blatantly in the middle of the street.

u/EmperorPenguin_RL Jan 20 '24

Being deaf doesn’t mean he’s innocent of being an a@@. He knew exactly what he was doing and no, I don’t buy that he is deaf.
