I'm sure it will wake them up as to why deaf people need to watch closed captioned...lol

That is a good one!!!
I know how you feel even thought it didnt happen to me in college. It happened a few times at the gym. Before getting on the exercise machine, I would ask the attendant to turn the CC on so I can enjoy watching TV while working out so they would do that for me cuz they know the laws. However, once it gets turned on the other patrons start complaining and yelling at the attentant and it really sucks cuz the attentant would point to me and some of those people would give me dirty looks. One time I got fed up and gave the finger to this one guy who kept giving me dirty looks. Stupid ass!
My hubby's parents are very resistant to turn the CC on whenever I come over and I would see the eye-rolling but too bad for them. I dont give a damn anymore cuz they all leave me out while chatting away so at least I can watch some TV.
