Things you shouldn't do when you're deaf

I don’t want to sound like a callous asshole… but that’s what I am so that’s how it comes out (apologies to Bill Hicks). In this particular case, there was a deaf beauty queen in Texas that was killed by a train. Nothing can be funny about that, right? Wrong!!

Tara McAvoy was walking along some train tracks text messaging her family members when a train actually came by and knocked her into next Tuesday. Honestly, that’s not really funny but it does make you wonder. Distracting yourself while walking on the train tracks is never a good idea. It is a much worse idea when YOU ARE FUCKING DEAF!!

The train operators sounded the horn but “they weren’t able to get a response from her.” The hell you say! A deaf chick didn’t hear the horn? I’m perplexed…

Oh well, perhaps this situation isn’t funny but I doubt the world just lost the next Einstein. I could be wrong.
