Who else was waiting for the plot twist? I thought she dumps him because his voice sounds like a drowning pig in panic or so... :'D

After my girlfriend gained the ability to smell, she dumped me. She hates roses now though

[–] rbn@sopuli.xyz 21 points 2 years ago (1 children)

How do you suddenly gain that ability? Are there implants for smell as well? Or did they extract some lego bricks that she stuffed up her nose as a kid?

If someone is deaf from birth and gains hearing from implants later in life, you whisper in their ear and they can't see your lips they won't understand because they have never heard the audio before. Is this correct?

In the beggining he said after a while she noticed or something like that so it means she had partial hearing loss.

Yes, but it’s not just deaf from birth people. Your brain has to wire itself to understanding the signals from the implant

I like to think based on how this story is worded she always had implants but never knew to turn them up

[–] cordlesslamp@lemmy.today 50 points 2 years ago (1 children)

what if we all have implants but never knew how to turn them down?

So it’s fake because 4chan. But also it’s fake because even if you’re late deafened you need to learn how to hear after getting cochlear implants.

Also because it’s rare for adults fluent in sign language with a supportive network to choose CIs unless late deafened

[–] nutsack@lemmy.world 17 points 2 years ago

what if they're both fat

the real question is if it's also gay too.

dont ask me i don't use four chan.

WHO'S CUTTING ONIONS IN THE HOSPITAL?

I never expect when greentexts hit right in the feels.

[–] Early_To_Risa@sh.itjust.works 26 points 2 years ago

Never knowing what to expect is the fun part of reading greentexts.

This is really cute, but the first thing you should've said to her is the cheesy pick up line from the day you met her.
