0 Guest Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 I think the sign language answer seems good, but how about this... Reveal hidden contents The guy could have just made the comment randomly, and not in response to the conversation. Old people do that a lot.

0 akaslickster Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 (edited) As long as he had a body with an arm or 2 and at least one hand to express his thoughts. Hence why I chose signing. If he's dead then we need to know. The phrase "mute guy says" means that you contradicted. Edited April 12, 2008 by akaslickster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say figure of speech, but i did not say it you read it! I know blind people that say (verbally - not implied), that they 'watched' TV - don't have to ask them how - it's acceptable usage! Just like 'wicked' 'bad 'terrific' - all opposite to their original meaning - 'naf' - naf was naf now it means not naf - saw that appear and reform in my own life time, maybe it goes back and flips again. After all it was a naf word when it first appeared. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
