[mattandmeganmont]

The "I don't miss it all that much" line cracked me up. lol

[lenalenz]

[brettsgay]

[chutchybo]

my partner is deaf.. i had to explain most of this to him.. even though i though it was sooo funny thanx 4 the vid lol

[pepsico8]

It no sense of humour I am deaf I find it offensive

[TheMarvellousMuffin]

Why are people angry that this isnt actually sign language?

I don't get pissed off when I see people butcher English on the internet everyday us1ng numb3r5 1n5t34d of w0rd5 - it's virtually the same thing.

[NOUKKiiLOL]

Numbers in A word Calls the Bacardi Language xD

[nestical916]

THERES JUST SO MANY THINGS

[iluvtheAIRFORCE]

i wana c him do the song"jizz in my pants" would be very amusing 2 watch

[TheMarvellousMuffin]

I would say "repetitive" rather than amusing.

[JulieEffinD]

BlayneDouglas: dont call yourself a deafie.

its takes more than not having hearing to be considered one trust me.

to me, youre just another ignorant person who happened to have lost their hearing, because you think like one.

you dont even know how to talk to or udnerstand deaf people, and you wanna call yourself one.

Ive got excellent hearing and bud, ive got 500 times more claim to being a deafy than you do.

[JulieEffinD]

BlayneDouglas:

You should just shoot yourself.

"Deaf-Culture is LARGELY made up of hateful ideas born out of a time of great oppression toward the Deaf"

I think youre a moron actually. You may claim to be deaf, but you obviously know nothing of the culture.

i have a great sense of humor, and while this video causes a snicker, its still offensive and rude. ACCEPT THAT AND STOP ARGUING.

there no doubt that its kidna funny, but the fact of the matter is, its blatantly rude.

[goodtube77]

ha ha you're spot on BlayneDouglas is arsehole

[KillafoREAL]

lol if ur deaf how are u suposed to kno the humor in it if it goes with the music

[punkwarlord]

this guy is fucken great!!!! omg... GREAT I SAY!!

[BlayneDouglas]

groundgirl79: Deaf Culture has a way of always trying to make late-deafened people feel small or insignificant in comparison to be born Deaf. All this emphasis like one Deafie is better than another. That's what I don't respect about Deaf Culture... it treats itself like some sort of club house just for "boys". Very childish. In the Deaf Culture, the oppressed become the oppressors. my ASL sucks because I'm still learning... remember when you were first learning?

[goodtube77]

boohoo JulieEffinD got spot on

Goodbyeeeeee

[BlayneDouglas]

groundgirl79: You should contact the person who put the video on YouTube and let him or her know how you feel. i did not post the video but I understand how you could feel that way. I just don't happen to agree with you but I'm still sympathetic if you found it disturbing... and "no... I'm not a hearing person... I'm Deaf".

[BlayneDouglas]

groundgirl79: This is a phenonemon all of it's own. The number of responses about my thinking this is funny is ridiculous. I'm not going to debate my hearing status with you or when I became Deaf or what my philosophy is on my Deafhood.  I am simply going to tell you, "I felt this was funny". END of story. If you don't think it's funny, FINE. You are entitled to that opinion.

[PonyClubSecrets]

I love this. The live version is even better though! :))

[patrickfarricker]

i thought that was really cool. the guy moves amazingly!

[HarkkenZbeast]

no matter how many times i watch it ... i crack up

[sharkfan8]

suprem faceal expressions and brillient actions. realy good!!

[BlayneDouglas]

It's hard to believe this discussin continues having momentum. Pepsico... you're confused but that's ok. I stand on my original opinion. The "Character" in this video is funny. He's joking around and it's intent is to lake others enjoy a giggle or two. It worked on me. For those who didn't appreciate it, I hope you get over it soon.

[BlayneDouglas]

djtokz - thanks for your note telling me it's funny. However, it's not my video. I didn't post it but happy someone did. :-) All these Deaf-Culture-Haters of the Hearing World can shove it. The only thing "they've" accomplished with all their tongue-wagging is to confirm in my mind that Deaf-Culture is LARGELY made up of hateful ideas born out of a time of great oppression toward the Deaf... so, the Oppressed have become the Oppressors.

[pepsico8]

BlayneDouglas and djtokz both are BOLLOCKS I don't think deaf people making hateful it just because David Armand making rude gesture toward deaf that how deaf people complaining but it is ok for hearing people think deaf are weirdo but it is NOT

[JillianEnright]

Very offensive and ignorant. I am Hard of Hearing and involved in Deaf culture. Deaf people are not Hearling-haters, we have been oppressed and yes, we fight when we feel someone is perpetuating that. The video is funny, nothing wrong with that, but calling these videos Deaf Karaoke is very offensive as it is simply silly miming and nothing at all like sign language. It makes it seem as though sign language is just a silly mime when it is a complete language just like French, Spanish, etc.

[BlayneDouglas]

I respect your opinion. However, I disagree that clinging to some ideology of Deaf Culture explains away the humore intended behind the performance of a "character". There are plenty of Deaf Culture aspects many d/Deafies and Hearies, alike, find offensive.

[dogsstuff]

People who think this is offensive should get a sense of humor!!! This isnt making fun of deaf people! Its just a very humorous way of miming to a song! If you find this offensive please get a sense of humor!

[djtokz]

kerrim shaakh should

[BlayneDouglas]

LOL. Not much more to say. LOL I've said what there is to say. LOL Enjoy work! :-)

[BlayneDouglas]

Germal59: I don't want to ignore them because they have opinions worth discussing but they seem to want to demonstrate all their anger toward me like I'm the problem in their lives... and I'm not.

[BlayneDouglas]

Germal59: EXACTLY! He's a comedian doing his job. I don't know any comedian who hasn't taken shots at all kinds of groups of people... from gay, to black, to Deaf, to Jewish... the list goes on. Why should the Deafies get to go free from humor? I don't have to "agree" with it... I just have to laugh at it because it's so ridiculous.

[BlayneDouglas]

Germal59: I'm not sure what you're saying, here. Again, with the "anger". Why is this so necessary to demonstrate such anger toward me? Because I don't agree that this video is horrible? That's just silly...

[BlayneDouglas]

Germal59: I said I didn't like Deaf? hhhmmm... that's odd. I don't recall saying that. By the way, I choose to capitalize Deaf.

[Becherovkaoriginal]

How is the name of this song?

[yolicat]

this is soo funny XD

best joke ever!

[Soncoy08]

Me encanto...

[lunar52]

Very Talented and funneh.

[swanie180]

I love it so much, very funny!!!

[allstarzs]

he owns!!

[littletonpace]

hilarious. love it

[AaronLillis]

I love it

[Italiadude]

LOL

[BlayneDouglas]

I am deaf. I've been watching this man for a few years, now. As a deaf person and from ALL my deaf friends we think this is just FANTASTIC!!! It's SUPREMELY FUNNY and ONLY HELPS to serve the humor that is appropriate for such a tragic loss as hearing. It CAN be funny and it CAN be fun. I read lips in restaurants. LOL

[goodtube77]

No you're wrong it a bad example for the deaf

[BlayneDouglas]

GoodTube77... try and relax. He's a Comedian. He's having fun with language. We Deafies do it all the time. Deaf Culture allows us to play with signs. What's the difference? He's playing with signs.

[goodtube77]

BlayneDouglas, sorry it just because you don't understand cos you're not deaf anyway but I got message from David armand that he apologise me and whole deaf community for stupid gesture od deaf and apologise accept ok

[BlayneDouglas]

I'm happy that you're satisfied. :-)

For the record...yes, I am Deaf. :-) And I, for one, was not offended. If you were offended then you did the right thing by expressing yourself about it. However, I'm part of the Deaf community and I'm fine with it.

[podum77]

why other deaf people complaining about him and why didn't you ???????????????? you must be one of stupid like him huh come on be sense for deaf world

[BlayneDouglas]

Podum77 - Listen, there's no reason to go off on others because they don't agree with you. I see the video for what it is... a humorous take on life. That's all it is. When you call people "stupid", you're only projecting something important about yourself for others to see. There's no call for that kind of behavior.

[goodtube77]

I do not think you are deaf if you are really deaf you suppose complaining I really don't understand you I think you pretend "I am deaf"

[BlayneDouglas]

LOL! That's because it's easier for you to imagine that someone else in the world might have different belief systems than you. I'm not going to fight with you because I'm above that. I also don't have to "prove my Deafness" to you. :-) Have a very nice day and I hope you get over your anger someday, soon.

[goodtube77]

you make me laugh you above me what a shit talk I AM BLOODY ABOVE YOU OKAY

[BlayneDouglas]

It shows... all that cursing and anger being tossed at me because I don't agree with you. So sad... but it's your problem, I assure you.

[pepsico8]

mmm!!! I think you are a weirdo

[BlayneDouglas]

And in a free society, you are welcome to think anything you wish. Because I choose to see the humor int his video by accepting that the person who created it has the right to do so, does not make me a weirdo. How can you conclude such idiocy?

[goodtube77]

I think you just an arsehole

[goodtube77]

I don't agree with you either it's not my problem I'm not only one who complaining there lots of other deaf complaining except only you you just brainwash

[BlayneDouglas]

So you have the job of representing "all the others"? Wow... that's a lot of responsibility for someone who criticizes others because they don't share in your beliefs.

[goodtube77]

you think you are GOD well you are EVILMIND

[BlayneDouglas]

LOL... wow... you remind me of just how much work we have to do as a society before we'll ever know peace and acceptance. The road travels both ways, young one. If you want respect, you must first demonstrate it.

[goodtube77]

I don't understand what you're talking about

[BlayneDouglas]

Goodtube77: I get that you don't understand... allow me to rephrase. If you want to be respected as a Deaf person, you must first learn to respect others who are Deaf and don't agree with you. This, in turn, will help hearies accept you better, as well.

[pepsico8]

I've read your comment mmm!!! you look like you hate deaf yourself can you see there lots of deaf ppl furious with his miming and I see deaf have respect their cultures mmm!!! you're odd one

[BlayneDouglas]

Pepsico8: No, I don't hate "Deaf". I don't "hate" any group of people because that's wrong, in my mind and heart. I am Deaf and I love myself. I am Deaf and I love others who are Deaf not just because they're Deaf but because they've earned my love. Just because you're Deaf doesn't mean I will agree with your Deaf Culture practices or ideas. Love is earned... it's now owed you because you're Deaf.

[goodtube77]

BALLS

[goodtube77]

BlayneDouglas no you don't understand thanks to Germal59 and pepsico8 for support me

[BlayneDouglas]

I understand quite well. You're a Deaf person behaving like a bully and when you don't get your words accepted by others, you turn into a mean-spirited person who stomps his feet in protest of other's views. I don't know how old you are, but your behavior suggests you're quite young and not fully experienced in life. THAT'S OK, TOO! But don't call others "down" because they don't agree with you. That's not healthy.

[pepsico8]

Sorry BlayneDouglas I'm not deaf I am interpreter for the deaf I totally support deaf world as my parents both are deaf and I understand your comment but really to me you didn't support deaf I don't understand you well nice to meet you

[BlayneDouglas]

No need to apologize for not being Deaf. ;-) We Deafies like Interpreters, too! :-) I just don't believe this video means anything in the scheme of things and how the world operates. Believe me, there are MUCH bigger fish to fry than this silly little video. I choose to laugh at it's ridiculousness because why would any intelligent person spend any amount of time being upset over it. Think about it.

[goodtube77]

lol you're just a time waster we don't understand your comment

[BlayneDouglas]

GoodTube77: You don't understand what I'm saying so somehow that makes me a "timewaster"? How about just asking me to explain myself? What would be so wrong with doing it that way instead of insulting me?

[goodtube77]

BlayneDouglas I'm not insulting you but you insulting me I understand that you are not DEAF

[djtokz]

ay blayne dont sweat these uneducated fucks that cant even take a joke.. your video is fuckin funny. bottom line

[goodtube77]

I am not bully I am deaf and hearing do sometimes bully to deaf which I don't like it I have never hate deaf if you are deaf I should never hate you but you make confuse me

[BuLLyZ]

haha cool :D

[rosecran]
