Well the preacher kept right on saying that all I had to do was send Ten dollars to the church of the Sacred Bleeding Heart Of Jesus Located somewhere in Los Angeles, California And next week they'd say my prayer on the radio And all my dreams would come true Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Has anyone looked at TV with the caption feature? Ever notice that sometimes it says "somber music" but if you are deaf how would you know somber music from happy music? Isn't it a bit like saying bright light or dim light to a blind person? or electric blue or vermillion red? How about boy band music or punk rock?

Marvel Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 (edited) My wife likes to watch movies with 'closed captions' turned on, so she can learn more English vocabulary. That would be okay if they were the same words as what was actually being said. Sometimes they are way off...

How about boy band music or punk rock? i see your point; but, not all are blind/deaf from birth. i won’t be surprised if i’m totally deaf some day...80% of hearing is already gone. when that say comes, i don’t know who will be better off--them for not knowing what they’re missing or me for having had the chance to hear.

The weird part is, similar to what Marvel points out with the words and spelling errors, that at one point the caption said somber music, then later it said dramatic music but the music was exactly the same each time...

I guess the minders get to ignore the OP intentions anyway? Funny. In a very small way. Don't be so afraid of intelligence people - -- it will not harm you.
