That Deaf Guy: Loud Clothes!
Who loves LOUD clothes? I knew a guy who loved when his interpreters would wear bright colors and prints instead of dark colors. It made him happy, but for many, it would make them dizzy to see such loud colors as a background for the interpreter's signs.
Hello friends,
