Of course Kyle would be happy to disown his family. He's less grateful than TJ Church.

Exactly. Here's the thing, most disabled people don't actually want your help unless they truly need it. They see being able to do everything they want as a kind of accomplishment and anybody helping them takes away from it.Wait, hold up. Remember how much he's screamed about people offering help, or coming to help him, or even talking to him? Why is he now surprised no one gave a shit when he got stuck?
Good idea, but in Kyle's dungeon, the stairs would have a locked door at the top.Can we have like a stairs dungeon for kylies?
Like, for every ungrateful twat like Kylie, we can leave them at the bottom of a dungeon where they have to drag themselves up a flight of stairs to get out.
It's not at all impossible, just a huge pain in the ass. They could tumblr themselves to death if they really wanted to, by staying in the dungeon.
That'd be cool.
This is kinda a-loggy but wouldn't it be funny if after dragging himself up the stairs the door had a sign that said something like "to open the door listen to this phrase and repeat"?Good idea, but in Kyle's dungeon, the stairs would have a locked door at the top.
then turns around and says someone 'read my post aurally not visually' like it changes the meaning. What about the blind people nigga?
Thirsty Kylie hits on someone he presumes is a woman

I live in a country where I don't know the language well. Sometimes I watch a program where the news is presented with sign language. The primary reason I watch it is because they write out everything along with the sign language but I know some ASL and although things like 'hello' or 'thank you' are similar or the same more complex thoughts vary when signing. ASL (American Sign Language) isn't the sign language use in many other places.^ ^ ^
Depending on who you ask, English is a second language for deaf folks who learned to communicate with ASL so technically he is bilingual. Doesn't make him any less of an asshole. But yeah, he's right.Oh no the real irony is, ASL and ESL's written equivalent is English not even adapted for use just the same english hearing people use, this is a example of Kyle not really understanding anything and parroting what he's been told, it makes him feel smart.
Edit to add:
No Kyle, your not bilingual, you know English and that's it.

Yea I have seen that argument advanced but I'm not so sure, Sign is a way of visually expressing a already existing language without using writing not a distinct language on it's own if you go down that route semaphore is it's own language and that really isn't.
Edit to add: I have just googled this and it appears as if this is a bit of a issue amongst linguists.
you probably saw this in whatever you googled but to clarify, the issue is this: ASL does not actually follow the grammar/syntax conventions of english. there isn't a 1:1 relationship between [word in english] and [sign]. there is a clear relationship but you have to make a bunch of allowances in ASL for ease of motion as well as the elimination of substantively superfluous words that perform auxiliary functions in english but don't really influence meaning
the question of whether it's a language is really more about the definition of "language." but ASL is not english transposed into hand motions
Anyone have info on how he reacts to sign language that isn't what he knows?
ASL was based on the French Sign Language, LSF since the first proper teacher for the deaf in USA was French. The British Sign Language is nothing like ASL because Gallaudet didn't like the state of deaf education in UK when he was looking for a teacher to bring over to USA. He went to France next and met Clerc then the rest is history.
From what people tell me, ASL is most similar grammar wise to Chinese which does make sense because I can read the worst Engrish easily by just translating it to ASL 1:1 in my head.
So no, English is not the written form of ASL. It's not uncommon for deaf people to have atrocious English even if they can sign beautifully. There are some people trying to make a written format for ASL or other sign languages but nothing has really gained traction because they suck.
Kylie has pretty good English which puts him in the minority among deaf people.
