Good gracious, PEOPLE
You know what, all we hear about in my communications class is about the teacher's blind husband, "my blind husband this" and "my blind husband that" and while it is clear that she loves him, and that he must love her, I am a bit more pissed off than I already was with my teacher at the moment. Because I just did an internet search for my teacher, who has a very unusual hyphenated name, and I saw more results for her husband than for her. So I just clicked a few, you know, to see more about who he was - because I figured he is probably an interesting person. And one of the links led me to a thread where he is actually explaining what is wrong with his eyes, and while other people are bringing up very specific problems like cataracts, he says... ...only that his vision is 20/200 in one eye, and 20/400 in the other. Which means I don't know how I have a drivers license, because I am blinder than that. My vision is 20/475 in one eye and 20/525 in the other. Yet I don't say I am blind, you know why? BECAUSE I WEAR GLASSES. And CONTACT LENSES. Have you heard of these? Because not only have they been around for a very long time, but YOUR WIFE WEARS SOME. I mean, come ON. Yes, I am blind as a bat WITHOUT my GLASSES. And I believe I am legally blind WITHOUT my GLASSES. But I don't go around telling people I am actually BLIND, because my vision is CORRECTABLE. 20/200 is better vision than I have ever had in my entire life, and I never thought I was blind before I got my glass at age 10. Now, no where does the husband ever state, on the internet, that he is blind, only that he has difficulty seeing. But my teacher reminds us every danged week (when she manages to come to class) that her husband is blind, and disabled somehow, and such a special person because HE CANNOT SEE. I'm telling you, this lady is a lunatic and is going to make me crazy before semester end. I'm afraid to raise my hand in class, because I may accidentally exclaim, "BULLSHIT".
