No, you clearly don’t know who you’re talking to, so let me clue you in. I am not in danger, Sandy. I am the danger. A guy opens his door and gets a bubble blown in his face, and you think that of me? No. I am the one who knocks!
In all honesty I do actually wonder about this. Any deaf people out there to weigh in? Does having the captions talk about music improve the experience for you? This is not a loaded question, I’m genuinely curious.
I'm a hearing individual but I'd like to say that I always enjoy subtitles and I really the way they sometimes describe the emotion music intends to convey.
Like when it says "romantic melody" or "suspenseful music." I like having that spelled out for me because sometimes I'll hear the music and I'll get a completely different vibe from what's playing than what was intended.
"Why is this horror scene playing elevator music" has been a real question I've asked myself, only for the subtitles to tell me I misinterpreted the music.
That’s a really interesting take to me because I actually have the opposite reaction. I don’t like the subtitles telling what to think about the tone of the music. I like to experience it raw so to speak.
My brother was born deaf. He experiences music through vibrations. He has his favorite bands and songs like anyone else. Closed Captioning in relation to music is largely useless, except as a que for the playing of said music.
Note: I’m not deaf, but my brother is. This is his explanation paraphrased, not mine. Also, I can’t watch anything without Closed Captioning, as it was always on for my brother growing up.
I never understood premade whipped cream. It takes two minutes to make. Cream, bowl, a little liqueur, tiny bit of salt, then go to town. Use a mixer if you need one, a hand beater isn’t expensive.
I was counting that. Whiping cream is super fast once you know how, cleanup is easy. And buying heavy cream is something I would usually do anyway. Buying the prewhipped stuff takes no less effort than buying a carton.
Of course not, I’m not saying anyone’s lazy. I would encourage people to learn how to do it, though! It’s one of those things that is surprisingly easy and can save you some cash and fridge space.
You’re not always going to be cooking a million other things. Sometimes you’re just pulling cheesecake out of the freezer, and at that point a quick whipped cream batch is nbd.
