Celebrating Neurological Devastation Week
In honour of RNID’s erudite campaign to celebrate their astute awareness program, World Without Sound, The Dude has worked his fingers to the bone to ensure that he can contribute to the campaign.
Much thanks to GOD, not forgetting Saltbar, and Joe losing his cool, for bringing this neglected campaign to my attention.
For the first time ever, in Deaf Blogs, and Cyberspace, I was able to gain a transcript of the RNID SUCKS image. You can read it below.
Time (mm:ss) Visual Sound
00:00 - 00:09 Text and Black Screen Silence
00:09 - 00:16 Two Girls Holding Up A Sign. It Reads: RNID SUCKS!
00:16 - 00:17 One of the girls just farted!
00:18 - 00:19 Girl smiles Girl giggling
00:20 - 00:25 Man walks past. Stomp, stomp, stomp
00:25 - 00:28 Concrete footpath creaking Camera clicking and winding forward
00:28 - 00:30 Girls thinking ”We’re not getting paid for this!” Hollow cavernous sound
00:30 - 00:32 Man walks past again! He can’t help but stomp.
00:32 - 00:33 Girl still smiles Girl still giggling
00:34 - 00:37 There’s nothing else to do.
00:39 - 00:41 Girls thinking ”Let’s make some aeroplane noise”
00:42 - 00:43 Girl smiles Girl giggling Hollow cavernous sound
00:43 - 00:46 Man walks by for the third time High pitched toy piano “dum-dum-dum”
00:46 - 00:52 Girls thinking, “Isn’t this the third time that guy has walked by?”
00:52 - 00:58 Girl in brown topping thinking: “He is orright in he?”
00:58 - 01:03 Pan around from girl in the green top face to her lips moving: ”Depends on whether he is loaded or not!”
01:04 - 01:11 Footpath groaning under the weight of the two girls Short scales on a xylophone
01:09 - 01:11 Girls teeth rattling from all that traffic. Short scales on a xylophone
01:12 - 01:12 Chaffeured cars pass by. Noise receding.
01:13 - 01:16 RNID management pass by. Chaffeur driven cars. Sound of air being sucked in
01:16 - 01:22 Black screen and text Silence
01:22 - 01:30 Sounds of RNID management laughing.
01:30 - 01:38 Text Silence
Meanwhile, we subtitle some noises for you.

Love it. I couldn’t stop laughing. The sad thing though is that it has come to this in the first place. Everyone not in the know think the RNId are so wonderful.
