Absolutely, when it causes people to take things out of context as you just did. Anybody with half a brain (oh wait, is that offfensive too? My bad...) would realize that I was not talking about "true" deaf people. It's called "a saying"...I was referring to the morons (oops, another something offensive) out there who waste other customers time going through the self checkout, when common sense should intervene and say 'ya know, I really should go to a cashier for this'.
I apologize for using the term "deaf" in conjuction with moron's. I didnt mean it that way. Unfortunately, you took it that way, even though if you had read the context of what my post was actually saying, you shouldn't have. But surely you've seen people at stores who play up the oblivious part and it makes you wonder if they are deaf, when 9 times out of 10, it's not actually a person who has the disability.
