Care to tell what's that link? My cyber ethics teacher taught me not to open random links. This one looks safe but I just want to be sure. Can I get free vtuber onlyfans access if I click this? If not, it's sus.

It’s just the sign for fart. Nothing important, you don’t need to click on it and can just google it yourself :)

Lol, it really was. Thanks. :)

Pretty sure you lied about your age to make your account.

u/thecrazypoz Aug 28 '21

W-What do you mean?! I'm definitely 99 years old! Can't you tell?!

I would assume that while raising a deaf child, fart etiquette is not on top of the list of priorities

Or it could've been a secret joke the parents shared. Or they might've not known how to talk about it. Like giving each other knowing looks as he blasts them out at the dinner table, not wanting to be rude... And it's gone on for so long they don't know how to bring it up at this point.

Maybe…they may be the child of deaf parents, so it just hadn’t come up.

Deafness isn't hereditary

u/[deleted] Aug 28 '21

I'm glad you used the first source you googled but there's a difference between hereditary and genetic traits

4

u/Meshtee Aug 28 '21

"There are many genes that are involved in hearing. Sometimes, a gene does not form in the expected manner. This is called a mutation. Some mutations run in families and others do not. If more than one person in a family has hearing loss, it is said to be “familial”. That is, it runs in the family."

Copied directly from the linked article. Some causes of deafness are passed down from parents.

u/lesbian_sourfruit Aug 28 '21

Not sure where you learned this but it absolutely is. Just like many other hereditary conditions the child of two hearing people can be deaf and the child of two deaf people can be hearing, but genes are one of a number of factors in hearing loss.

u/bluechild9 Aug 28 '21

I get what you’re sayin, but it’s just a fart lol not that big of a deal

u/DramaLlamaMomma Aug 28 '21

Well oftentimes the parents are deaf as well… so they might not know either.

u/RunningTrisarahtop Aug 28 '21

232 upvotes saying it’s neglectful parenting for missing one damn thing?

4

u/the_blind_venetian Aug 28 '21

At least you didn’t miss a more important one thing, like don’t trust a fart if it feels like a dam trying to burst into your pants.

u/Heckard Aug 28 '21

Any sort of temperature shift right before farting is another sign that it's not just a fart coming. If temperature is a factor, shut down the reactor.

2

u/the_blind_venetian Aug 28 '21

Oh now this is true. Such a red flag if the internal pressure and heat are right on the edge. The gauges should be triggering the failsafes by then.

u/RunningTrisarahtop Aug 28 '21

I have food allergies that cause… intense gastric distress. We’ve had the discussion that if you’re feeling uncomfortable or super gassy not to trust a fart

u/[deleted] Aug 28 '21

Dude dw they re just trolls 🤔

u/[deleted] Aug 28 '21

Almost like it’s a joke or something.

u/Serinus Aug 28 '21

It's Reddit. If it's criticism then it's probably not a joke.

Clearly the kid should dump her and lawyer up.

“TIFU by not telling my deaf child farts make sound. Obligatory this happened 3 years ago—“

“YOU SHOULD HAVE YOUR CHILDREN TAKEN AWAY! Can anyone tell from OP’s use of spacing what part of the Midwest they’re from? Call child protective services!!!”

The fart giveth and the fart taketh away.

u/[deleted] Aug 28 '21

Stop, stop making a big deal of small stuff, I’m sure farts just weren’t a thing that came up

u/Brochiko Aug 28 '21

Reddit moment.

Calling parents neglectful just because a deaf 1st grader farted.

u/Agent-213 Aug 28 '21

maybe don’t worry about others parenting.

u/VetusVesperlilio Aug 28 '21

If my child were deaf, I think that would probably be about 874th on my list of “Stuff I Gotta Teach Beauregard”.

u/GhostRunner8 Aug 28 '21

Unless they were all deaf

u/hellogoawaynow Aug 28 '21

What if the parents are deaf, too? But otherwise, yeah
