Ehm… I adjusted the volume to hear the joke. I know I’m normally an idiot, but I think I’d be needing some sleep.
Comment on Does Sign Language have puns?

Yes! My favorite example is the sign for pasteurized milk, which is just the sign for milk, but moved ‘past your eyes’.

That is amazing.
Adam Hills had a couple comedy specials where he has an interpreter and some of the jokes get 2 rounds of laughter as you see how it gets signed.

Haha do you suppose he knows the audience is applauding the interpreter and not what he’s saying?

I mean she’s standing right next to him and it’s very obvious. I’d say it’s his dry humor that he deliberately doesn’t acknowledge what the audience is laughing about. He wouldn’t have said “you shouldn’t laugh about that” unless that’s it.

That was amazing! I can’t believe this is the first time I’ve seen this.
