    A cool thing about being tone deaf is that I can’t tell who voices who.

    A sad thing is I can’t tell hot water vs cold water being poured. Finding out people could do that seemed like a super power to me.

        The problem is that there’s no such thing as “regular” deafness (same for blindness). It’s a spectrum with several different types.

        You can be deaf but still capable of hearing, and you can be blind and still be capable of seeing. Although in a diminished capacity.

        In the case of being tone deaf, you struggle to differentiate different pitches.

        I can hear, I just hear things more monotone.

        I can tell accents and volume levels apart though. Tonal languages are very difficult.

      I usually just wait for a subtle hints of steam building up inside the boiler. To be clear, i think shark tale is really not bad, at all. But it’s weird. I have a dvd of this movie
